一般的生意来往,如卖家是GST注册而买家下定单1万,付定金2千,那2千一般都是没付GST吧. 如果交易完成,买 ...
If the deposit forms partial payment for the goods or services supplied, GST has to be charged on the amount of deposit and accounted for in the accounting period in which the deposit is received. If the deposit is refundable and used as a security, GST is not chargeable. For example, a deposit imposed for the safe return of goods.
押金/定金,要符合两个条件才可以不包括GST:交易不成,可以退还。作为抵押而不是部分付款。
如果交易不成,TOP的定金是不可退还的。相反,作为1%的定金,交易成功的话,余额扣除这个1%,因此是partial payment。
很明显,这个定金,不符合不包括GST的条件。相反,符合要包括GST的条件。
因此答案很明显。
