Samsung unveiled the Lee family's inheritance tax payment plan. But key details were missing. We do not still know which family member gets which company stake.Unless specified in the will, the inheritance will go at a 1/3 (spouse) to 2/3/N (each child) ratio. But the consensus now is there is a will, and this 1/3 (spouse) to 2/3/N (each child) ratio won't happen.The deadline to report the tax payment is April 30. But the family doesn't need to report who gets what information. The Korean inheritance tax law allows a family to make a collective payment for the entire family. Inheritance sharing can be discussed later, and there is no deadline for this.Nonetheless, several Samsung insiders familiar with this matter have reportedly said that the who gets what information will be made public as early as next week. All shareholding changes by a major shareholder must be filed and made public at DART within 5 days after changes are made. So, we will know once a decision is reached.
