At the proposal of the Minister of Finance,

During the period of resistance and until new orders are issued, the system of direct taxes to be applied throughout the country shall follow the provisions set forth in the following articles:

PART 1

INCOME TAX (ITS)

In the North and Central regions, the agricultural tax rate applied in 1946 remains unchanged.

Article 6

The agricultural tax ledger for the fiscal year 1947 will temporarily be established based on the figures recorded in the ledger of the year 1946. A subsequent decree will determine the method for refunding to the people the amount of tax paid if it is later found that the area recorded in the tax ledger does not match the actual area.

ARTICLE 7

Areas within the combat zone where the population has evacuated and the farmland has been left fallow without any income shall be exempt from agricultural tax.

Before the tax assessment, the provincial administrative committee shall examine and propose to the Anti-Japanese Struggle Zone Committee to decide on a clear list of areas meeting the above conditions to be exempt from agricultural tax.

Article 8

If the landowner has evacuated, lost contact, or their address is unknown, but the farmland is still managed or cultivated by tenant farmers, the managers and tenant farmers are required to pay the agricultural tax on behalf of the landowner. The amount paid will be deducted from the rent when settled.

PART 5

SPECIAL TAX ON INCIDENTAL INCOME, SPECIAL TAX ON MOTOR VEHICLES FOR TRANSPORTATION

SPECIAL TAX ON ENTERTAINMENT

Section 7

ADDITIONAL FEES FOR TAX COLLECTION

Article 11

Committees responsible for collecting taxes to deposit into the treasury are permitted to collect an additional three percent (3%) of the main tax amount as remuneration and stationery fees, but they must provide their own necessary receipt forms.

This additional fee, except for the special tax on slaughter, shall be recorded in the tax ledger and collected together with the tax.

As soon as the tax is received, the Treasury will issue treasury bills corresponding to the tax amount to the provincial administrative committees to distribute the aforementioned three percent amount within their jurisdiction.

SECTION 8
