톤세제 도입을 주요 내용으로 하는 조세특례제한법 개정법률안이 지난해 12월29일 국회 본회의에서 가결된데 이어 12월31일 공포되어, 2005년 1월1일부터 시행되었다. 이로써, 그간 우리업계의 숙원사업으로 추진되어 온 톤세제 도의 국내도입이 가시화되었다. 다음은 톤세제도의 개요와 기본구조 등을 정리한 것이다. (편집자 주)

Although 'the International Ship Registration Act' has been enacted in Korea as of 1997, its effect is still in question to make shipowners and operators flag in or reflag because of insufficient incentives for them. Therefore, 'the Special Law for Jeju Free International City' has been established and the system of 'Special Ship Registration Zone' has also been enforced. Despite this, few studies were carried out to measure the relative importance of factors for Jeju International Ship Register yet. Against this backdrop, the purposes of this study are firstly, to investigate a relative importance of Jeju International Ship Registration System using AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) and secondly, to compare the characteristics of Flags of Convenience(FOC) with International Ship Register(ISR) which was adopted by several Far East Asia Countries(e.g., China, Hong Kong, Chinese Taipei and Japan). Moreover, this study aims to compare FOC with ISR in terms of shipping policy, ship management, and expenses and tax policy. In this paper, the factors were constructed with four high levels consisting of twenty one low levels to evaluate Jeju International Ship Register by utilizing Expert's brainstorming and AHP. According to the results, it is critical to expand the exemption and tax-related expenses, and also manage foreign-related systems systemically. This study provides important implications to maintain the tonnage tax system for ships effectively as well as to intensify the competitiveness of Jeju International Ship Register System.

Tonnage taxation has contributed to developing the Korean maritime industry through tax relief for shipping companies. The current tonnage taxation relies on the net tonnage as an earning-capacity indicator in a merchant ship. Although the tonnage tax accords with horizontal equity, it does not match vertical equity because of the different taxable capacities of an individual company. Nowadays, maritime transport uses a dedicated vessel, and each shipping freight embeds a different value of time. It means the tonnage taxation regime should consider the added value of each shipping freight. Meanwhile, as the environmental regulations led by the International Maritime Organization are being strengthened, the Korean merchant fleet must be eco-friendly soon after. This study explores the alternative to renewing tonnage taxation by utilizing the Greenship certification and considering the ability-to-pay principle. Because the Greenship certification scheme encourages shipping decarbonization, maritime transport by a certified ocean-going vessel comes to be treated as an activity for the green economy. Special taxation for the green economy may contribute to shipping sustainability and market competitiveness.
