According to the Administrative Reconsideration Law of the People's Republic of China (1999 10/October 1 day, hereinafter referred to as the Administrative Reconsideration Law) and other relevant laws and regulations, State Taxation Administration of The People's Republic of China formulated the Rules for Tax Administrative Reconsideration (for Trial Implementation), and in l999/. Features Editing China's tax administrative reconsideration has the following characteristics: (1) The tax administrative reconsideration is based on the premise that the parties refuse to accept the specific tax administrative actions made by the tax authorities and their staff. This is determined by the purpose of administrative reconsideration to provide administrative relief to the parties. If the parties think that the handling by the tax authorities is legal and appropriate, or the tax authorities have not dealt with it yet, and the legitimate rights and interests of the parties have not been infringed, there will be no tax administrative reconsideration. (two) the tax administrative reconsideration is produced by the application of the parties. The application of the parties is one of the important conditions for tax administrative reconsideration. If the parties do not apply, it is impossible to obtain relief through administrative reconsideration.
