However, there is something to keep in mind. The withholding tax receipt with a preview printed in this way can only be used for verification purposes and cannot be used for submission to external organizations (government offices, banks, etc.).
※ Earned income withholding receipts for submission to external organizations (government offices, banks, etc.) can be requested from the company. This is because in order to use an earned income withholding tax receipt, it must have the company’s seal. If you are a retired employee or unable to apply to the company, you can use the withholding tax receipt as a substitute for proof of income amount.
Proof of home tax income amount
You can apply for issuance of income amount certificate at Government 24, and it can be issued at Hometax or Sontax.
