In order to further implement the deployment requirements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on reducing the number of certificates for convenience and optimizing services, State Taxation Administration of The People's Republic of China recently issued the Announcement on Cancelling 20 Tax Certification Items (hereinafter referred to as the Announcement), and decided to cancel 20 tax certification items, involving 168 specific tax matters, effectively streamlining the relevant certificates that enterprises and individuals need to provide for tax payment, and "simplifying" the convenience of enterprise development.

The cancellation of 20 tax certification items will benefit both enterprises and people's livelihood.

According to the person in charge of the Policy and Regulation Department of the State Administration of Taxation, the tax authorities specially issued the Notice on Implementing Several Measures to Further Support and Serve the Development of the Private Economy in the early stage, proposing 26 specific measures in five aspects to accurately help private enterprises achieve better and faster development. The cancellation of 20 tax certification items this time is a concrete measure to implement the requirements of the Notice and shows the determination of the tax authorities to support the development of the private economy.

From the tax-related field, the 20 cancelled tax certification items involve tax collection 1 and tax preference 19.

The "Announcement" clarifies that the "accident certificate of force majeure" has been cancelled in the tax collection category. If taxpayers need to postpone the payment of taxes due to force majeure, they no longer need to submit the accident certificate of force majeure issued by the public security organ, and instead explain the force majeure in the written report of applying for deferred payment of taxes and promise to be true. The tax authorities will conduct spot checks as needed afterwards.

Cancellation of 19 certificates related to tax preference, covering 167 specific tax matters, including "unit nature certificate" required for 35 tax matters, "house and land ownership certificate" required for 9/kloc-0 tax matters, "land use certificate" required for 9 tax matters and "individual" required for 5 tax matters.

Among the 20 tax certificates cancelled, 5 belong to the certificates originally issued by taxpayers who need to find another third party, such as a special report issued by an intermediary agency to deduct specific asset losses before enterprise income tax, and a feed product qualification certificate issued by a testing agency to exempt feed products from VAT filing. The remaining 15 items are the taxpayer's own legal license and other basic information, such as the property tax, the real estate ownership certificate required for the filing of tax reduction and exemption for urban land use tax, and the medical institution's professional license required for the filing of tax reduction and exemption.

Li Wanfu, director of the Tax Science Research Institute of the State Administration of Taxation, believes that the clearing of tax certification matters will not only help enterprises to reduce the tax burden, but also benefit people's livelihood, which will save many things for ordinary people to enjoy tax concessions.

Proof is more important without credit information.

After the cancellation of 20 tax certification items, information credit is playing a greater role behind taxpayers' efforts to save trouble and worry. The "announcement" clearly
