My father recently passed away, and I inherited his property. I have been told to pay inheritance tax, but the amount is utterly unreasonable. I heard that I can file a national tax objection against this, but I do not know how. I would be grateful if someone could help me.

Hello. This is a tax attorney at Daeryun Law LLC.
I see that you are looking into national tax objections.
National taxes are taxes imposed and collected by the state on its citizens, and they include income tax, corporate tax, inheritance tax, gift tax, and value-added tax.
If you receive a payment notice from the head of a tax office that you consider unlawful or unjust, you may file a national tax objection.
An objection may be filed either directly with the head of the tax office or with the head of the regional tax office that has jurisdiction over that tax office.
The written objection may be submitted in person or by mail to the tax office that issued the payment notice.
Here, a national tax objection must be filed within 90 days from the date you receive the payment notice, and once this period has elapsed, you can no longer file it.
If you underreport inheritance tax, the following additional taxes will be imposed, so a prompt response is necessary.
▷General failure to file : general unreported tax payable × 20%
▷Fraudulent failure to file : general unreported tax payable × 40%
▷General underreporting : general underreported tax payable × 10%
▷Fraudulent underreporting : fraudulent underreported tax payable × 40%
If you request assistance from a tax attorney at our firm, we will review your situation together with an inheritance attorney and a tax accountant, prepare a response strategy, and assist in resolving the matter promptly.
