Legal basis: Measures for the Administration of Tax Registration
Article 40 If a taxpayer who has gone through the tax registration fails to declare and pay taxes within the prescribed time limit and fails to make corrections within the time limit after being ordered by the tax authorities, the tax authorities shall send personnel to conduct on-site inspections. If there is no whereabouts and it is impossible to force them to fulfill their tax obligations, the inspectors will confirm the abnormal households and deposit them in the taxpayer's file, and the tax authorities will suspend the use of their tax registration certificates, invoice purchase books and invoices.
Article 41 If a taxpayer has been listed as an abnormal household for more than three months, the tax authorities may declare his tax registration certificate invalid, and still recover the tax payable in accordance with the provisions of the Tax Administration Law and its detailed rules for implementation.
