Shanghai taxation: opening a new mode of convenient taxation
State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China Shanghai Taxation Bureau is expected to set up an "off-office self-service tax service area" in Shibei High-tech Park in February this year, and start a new mode of "nearby tax, convenient tax and one-stop tax", which will benefit more than 2,000 enterprises and nearly 200,000 people in the industrial park in conjunction with the first "personal income tax settlement and payment" to be started soon.
By then, this off-duty self-service tax service area will integrate five functions, including online experience, self-service tax, remote consultation, electronic publicity, training and leisure. The person in charge of the Tax Service Department of Shanghai Taxation Bureau said: "After the completion, the enterprise staff in the park can enjoy various tax-related services through various types of self-service tax terminals and intelligent tax equipment within a few minutes from the office to the tax service area."
With the convening of the conference on optimizing the business environment and promoting investment in Shanghai at the beginning of the year, "streamline administration, delegate power, strengthen regulation and improve services", "One Network Run" and "World-class" have once again become hot online search words in Shanghai. As an important part of the business environment, Shanghai’s tax business environment is constantly improving.
Hu Xiaoyan, Chief of Tax Service Section of Jing ‘an District Taxation Bureau, State Taxation Administration of The People’s Republic of China, said: "In the past, the tax-related business of foreign construction enterprises involved many links, which was time-consuming and laborious. Now, the electronic information of foreign construction projects can be transmitted between tax authorities through the network, supporting remote processing in different places and improving the tax experience. "
Nantong Branch of Jiangsu Uni-installation Group Co., Ltd. is a company engaged in construction services. The person in charge said, "Before going online, we need to come to Shanghai from other places to register and prepay the project, and it will take at least one day to go back and forth. Moreover, the completion progress of each project is different. I often come several times a month and run to multiple tax bureaus at a time. Now you can do it online. Sitting in the office, you can finish the business with your hands, saving time, money and effort. "
The overseas construction project is only a microcosm of online taxation. It is understood that in 2019, the Shanghai Taxation Bureau handled a total of nearly 4.7 million "One Netcom Office" matters. Of the 270 items that have been handled online, 261 items have been handled online, accounting for 96.7%. Eighty-four high-frequency items have been innovatively handled by taxpayers, and the manual audit has been turned into automatic machine audit, which has achieved "second-level" completion. In the new year, Shanghai will build "Tax Service 3.0", provide more and better "tax plans" and "Shanghai model", and boost "Shanghai Optimized Business Environment 3.0".
