Taxes and Dues/Prepaid Expenses 

Korean tax laws require special reports on taxes and dues paid and prepaid expenses. This report has to display the payee and the description of the transaction.

The Taxes and Dues List is the summary list of the taxes and dues paid by the company during the year. The Prepaid Expenses List is the detail of prepaid expenses.
