財政部北區國稅局 and 台北國稅局 have announced the tax rules for stock dividends after a family member's death. The key is whether the date on which the right to the dividend is established falls before or after the date of death. For listed and OTC stocks, the ex-dividend trading date applies; for unlisted stocks, the date set by the shareholders' meeting applies. The dividends are subject to either estate tax or consolidated income tax, accordingly.

Facts:
- For estate tax reporting on stocks of listed, OTC and emerging-stock companies, the 기준 is the ex-rights (ex-dividend) trading date, not the date the dividend is actually credited.
- In Mr. Chang's case, Company A's ex-dividend trading date was June 20, 114 (before the date of death). The dividend was a receivable established during his lifetime and must be included in the total estate for estate tax reporting.
- In Mr. Chang's case, Company B's ex-dividend trading date was August 15, 114 (after the date of death). The dividend is the heir's consolidated income and does not need to be reported for estate tax.
- If an unlisted company has not set a separate ex-rights record date, the dividend payment date determined by the shareholders' meeting is used as the basis for judgment.

This article examines the custom of giving out towels at Taiwanese funerals, tracing it to the evolution of the traditional “da-zhi” return gift, given to thank relatives and friends for paying their respects. Official materials and academic research indicate that towels are ordinary return gifts, with no requirement to wash or discard them; how to handle them depends on personal beliefs and customs.

Facts:
- Towels handed out at funerals are essentially return gifts, known as “da-zhi,” given by the bereaved family to thank relatives and friends for attending and offering condolence money.
- The New Taipei City Government’s “Public Guide to Life and Funeral Rites” lists towels and handkerchiefs as return gifts to prepare before the funeral procession.
- A study of the “da-zhi” custom by Han Bi-chin of the Department of Chinese at National Taiwan Normal University says the custom has deeper historical roots and did not originate solely in the Japanese colonial period.
- Research finds insufficient historical evidence to support the claim that funeral towels originated from a surplus of towel production in Japan.
- There are no uniform rules across Taiwan on what to do with funeral towels—use them directly, wash them, or discard them. The choice mainly depends on personal, family, and local religious customs.
