For accounting purposes, it is stated that the aforesaid taxable moments will be applied for these purposes and this tax may also be imposed against reserves of capital without affecting profits in the fiscal year, on separate or individual, as well as consolidated balances. TAX ON FISCAL NORMALIZATION For persons who possess omitted assets, a fiscal normalization tax is created for the years 2015 to 2017 as a tax complementary to the Wealth Tax, as follows: Taxable fact: Possession of omitted assets or no-existing liabilities.
4 Taxable base: Net worth value of omitted assets, in accordance with heading II of Book I of the Tax Statute. This amount will be considered a price of acquisition for the purposes of determining its fiscal cost. Rate: 10% in 2015, from 11.5% in 2016 and 13% in This figure is not comparable with net worth nor is it a tax sanction and it allows extemporaneous registration of investment abroad, free from exchange sanction. An annual return is also established as an aggregate of assets abroad, with details of these assets when in excess of a value of UVT. INCOME TAX ON CREE EQUITY: Certain additions are made to the present articles regulating this tax, which may be summarized as follows: Rate, base and clean-up. The 9% rate remains permanent. It clarifies some aspects of income to be included, of admissible deductions and applicable exemptions. This tax and its surtax may not be set off by other taxes. Fiscal loss set off. Fiscal losses incurred by persons liable to Equity-CREE income tax as of tax year 2015 may be set off in this tax in accordance with the provisions of article 147 of the National Tax Statute. Minimum base excess set off. It also permits minimum base excess set off for -CREE- equity income tax (inset 2 of article 22 of the law) on the taxable base (inset 1 of the same article), which arises as of the 2015 tax year, fiscally readjusted, within the following five (5) years. With reference to income tax regulations. For the purposes of income tax on -CREE- equity, the provisions of Chapter XI of Heading I of Book I (Transfer Prices), of article of the National Tax Statute (Sub-capitalization) and the other provisions on Income Tax, will be applicable providing they are compatible with the nature of the said tax. Deduction for taxes paid abroad. National companies and entities which are liable to income tax for equity CREE and its surtax, when appropriate, and which receive income from a foreign source which
5 is liable to income tax in the country of origin, have the right to deduct from the amount of such taxes income tax paid in the country of origin and regardless of their denomination, when applicable. Compensation of credit balances. It is not accepted that credit balances are compensated with or for other taxes. INCO TAX SURTAX FOR EQUITY CREE: A surtax on the Equity CREE Tax is established for tax years 2015 to 2018 with the following components: Person Liable: Persons liable to income tax for equity CREE which produce profits exceeding COL800,000,000. Rate: 5% in 2015, 6% in 2016, 8% in 2017 and 9% in This will be added to the present CREE rate. An advance payment of the 100% is established for this surtax. In addition, we must remember that the CREE rate will be nine per cent (9%). CHANGES IN INCOME TAX: Non-residents. Nationals who comply with any of the points under numeral 3 of article 10 ETN (certain resident family members, income from assets or goods in Colombia), but who fulfill any of the following conditions, will not be fiscal residents: 1.
