In this case, the amount of tobacco consumption tax paid or to be paid, as prescribed in paragraph (1) of that Article, for that manufactured tobacco is to be the amount equivalent to the amount of tobacco consumption tax that the Japan Monopoly Corporation paid, or should have paid, for that manufactured tobacco under Article 467, paragraph (2) of the Former Act.
