Echo Evidence Brief

Plain-language explanation for first-time readers — side-by-side echo comparison, verbatim primary-source excerpts, and X-discourse discovery context (not tier evidence).

OECD published the global instrument first (Global precedent precedes Korea; 1995–2024). 국세청 (NTS) then adopted Korean text using the same policy vocabulary. Matched terms: "arm's length pricing" ↔ "정상가격 산출방법"; "transfer pricing guidelines" ↔ "이전가격 문서화 가이드라인"; "related-party transactions" ↔ "국제조세조정법 제4~9조". Read the side-by-side comparison and verbatim primary-source excerpts below.

Global purpose, Korean purpose, and precursor stages. Reasoning echo is discourse observation — not proof of coordination.

Global purpose

Make cross-border related-party pricing follow the arm’s-length standard so tax bases stay in jurisdictions where value is created.

Korean purpose

대한민국은 국제조세조정에 관한 법률 제4조~제9조 및 법인세법 시행령을 통해 OECD 이전가격 지침에 부합하는 정상가격 산출방법(비교가능 제3자 가격법, 재판매가격법, 원가가산법, 이익분할법, 거래순이익률법)을 규정하고, 2023년 국세청은 '이전가격 문서화 가이드라인'을 개정하여 OECD 2022 지침을 반영했다.
