美查海外逃稅 衝擊台灣「富二代」
http://tw.news.yahoo.com/article/url/d/ ... 1sp2t.html
中國時報【王良芬／紐約九日電】
美國政府嚴查境外銀行帳戶，凡有綠卡或公民身分者海外存款超過一萬
美元，應在十月十五日前申報，凡是隱藏海外帳戶被查獲者，美國國稅局
將予以重罰，甚予以刑事起訴。這項規定衝擊到許多亞裔富豪，包括台灣富豪第二代，現考慮放棄美國公民身分。
美國《商業周刊》據匿名銀行消息來源說，台灣富豪的第二代有五○％持有美國護照，台灣人習慣將小孩送到美國讀書，當中許多小孩在美國申請到美國公民，在一些亞洲國家司法體系裡，富豪很少憂心美國公民身分問題。
《商業周刊》說，多年來，亞洲富人一直把美國公民身分看成是方便的安全網，就如當年香港回歸中國時，許多怕被中國清算的富豪，把英國和加拿大護照當成護身符一樣。
不過，成為美國公民有其不利之處，就是有繳稅義務，而且不論在國內或
海外的收入一律要申報，現在因為美國要清查海外帳戶，有些富豪為了避稅，開始有放棄美國籍的念頭。
美國國稅局早在十多年就有規定，海外存款、證券、共同基金或
退休金
帳戶超過一萬美元者，均須申報。但這項規定一直未嚴格執行，直到今年八月瑞銀集團（ＵＢＳ）今年八月供出四千四百五十個美國富豪逃稅名單，海外帳戶問題再度受到重視。
美國國稅局特提出一項赦免計畫，過去六年有收入但未據實申報者，鼓勵在九月廿三日以前自願申報，後來因申報人數太多，又延後到十月十五日，並鄭重表示絕不再延後。
凡在十月十五日截止前申報海外帳戶者，須繳納海外帳戶過去六年內最高總金額的二○％為罰款。隱藏帳戶被查到者，罰金高達十萬美元或帳戶總值五○％，追查期限超過六年。國稅局警告說，逃漏稅將不僅面臨民事罰
金，更可能被刑事起訴，最高判處五年刑期。
