    中国子会社の再編・撤退(1) ‐総論‐
    2023-12-26

    1 中国を取り巻く環境の変化

    一昔前までの中国は、世界の工場として、世界中 の生産性企業がその安価な労働力を求めて進出して いたが、中国の経済成長に伴い労働コストが増加し た結果、中国国内のより安価な地域や東南アジア等 の第三国に生産拠点を移したり、中国国内の事業を 整理・統合したりするなどの動きが出てきている。

    近時、中国経済の先行きが不透明であることから、 中国子会社の再編・撤退を考えている企業も少なか らずあるのではないかと思われる。そこで今回から 複数回に分けて「中国子会社の再編・撤退」と題し て、中国子会社の再編・撤退にはどのような方法が あるのか、それぞれの方法の手続はどうすればよい のか、またどのような点に気を付ける必要があるの か等についてご紹介することとしたい。

    2 選択肢は現状維持か撤退かだけではない

    日本本社が中国子会社の業績を判断する場合、中 国子会社の事業全体をひとくくりにして見ることが 多いのではないかと思われる。すなわち中国子会社 が最終的に赤字であり改善の見込みがなければ撤退、 黒字であるもしくは赤字幅が少なく改善の見込みが あるということであれば現状維持という判断になる 傾向にあると思われる。

    2023-12-26

    The history of bankruptcy in these United States teaches this:

    • bankruptcy laws can provide an efficient and effective solution for a great variety of financial problems.

    But bankruptcy laws, in these United States, face significant problems, and their effectiveness is being diminished.

    First Problem

    Bankruptcy has a fundamental problem: nobody likes it.

    Everyone recognizes that bankruptcy laws are a necessity in our market economy. And bankruptcy laws are even founded upon a provision of the U.S. Constitution:

    [조세심판원 결정] 채무자 회생 및 파산에 관한 법률에 따른 촉탁 등기의 등록면허세 (조심 2023지3665, 2023.09.27)
    2023-12-26

    [취지] 회생절차 중 법원의 촉탁에 의한 등기는 등록면허세 과세대상에 해당되나, 이를 신고납부하지 아니한 것에는 정당한 사유가 있으므로 가산세를 부과할 수 없음.

    [사안의 요지] 채무자 회생 및 파산에 관한 법률(이하 ‘채무자회생법’) 제25조는 신주발행 등으로 법원의 등기 촉탁이 있는 경우 등록세를 부과하지 아니한다고 규정하는 반면, 지방세법 제26조는 회사의 정리 또는 특별청산에 관하여 법원의 촉탁으로 인한 등기 또는 등록에 대해서는 등록면허세를 부과하지 아니하되, 법인의 자본금 또는 출자금의 납입, 증자 및 출자전환에 따른 등기 또는 등록은 비과세 대상에서 제외하는 것으로 규정하고 있음. 청구법인은 채무자회생법에 따라 등록면허세를 신고납부하지 않았으나, 처분청은 채무자회생법은 지방세법에 대한 특별법이 아니라는 이유로 등록면허세를 부과하였음.

    제7기 「기업구조조정 촉진법」 시행
    2023-12-28

    새로 제정된 기업구조조정 촉진법(이하 “기촉법”)이 2023. 12. 26. 공포·시행되었습니다. 이에 따라 기촉법에 의한 워크아웃을 통하여 부실징후기업에 대한 신속하고 효율적인 경영정상화를 추진할 수 있게 되었습니다. 이번에 제정된 기촉법에는 2023. 10. 일몰된 제6기 기촉법의 내용이 거의 그대로 유지되면서, 워크아웃기업에 신규로 자금을 지원하는 제3자에게도 우선변제권을 부여하고, 구조조정 담당자의 면책요건을 확대하는 내용이 추가되었습니다. 

    I.    제정 배경

    기촉법은 2001년 한시법으로 제정된 이후 2023년 10월 실효된 제6기 기촉법에 이르기까지 6차에 걸친 제·개정을 거쳐 유지되어 오면서, 워크아웃의 근거법으로서 부실징후기업의 신속하고 효율적인 경영정상화에 활용되었습니다.
