新西兰将从2025年10月起与信贷机构分担公司税收债务,以改善问责制和公平竞争。 New Zealand will share company tax debts with credit agencies starting October 2025 to improve accountability and fair competition.

新西兰国内税收部(IRD)将从2025年10月开始与信用机构共享公司税收债务信息, New Zealand’s Inland Revenue Department (IRD) will begin sharing company tax debt information with credit agencies starting October 2025, ending years of internal restrictions despite having legal authority since 2017. 未支付的税收债务从2017年的30亿美元上升到2025年3月的约100亿美元。 Unpaid tax debts have risen from $3 billion in 2017 to an estimated $10 billion by March 2025. 此举旨在帮助债权人评估风险,保护财务上健全的企业,劝阻“僵尸公司”继续经营,不承担巨额未偿债务。 The move aims to help creditors assess risks, protect financially sound businesses, and discourage "zombie companies" from continuing operations with large unpaid liabilities. 通过付款安排积极管理债务的公司将不会受到注意。 Companies that proactively manage debts through payment arrangements will not be flagged. 这一变化是改善问责制和确保公平竞争的更广泛努力的一部分,尽管如果IRD继续隐瞒信息,它仍然对它的优惠债权人地位感到关切。 The change is part of broader efforts to improve accountability and ensure fair competition, though concerns remain about IRD’s preferential creditor status if it continues withholding information.
