　　"In the first quarter, the country achieved a total of 742.8 billion yuan in tax reductions and fees." On April 29, the State Administration of Taxation held a press conference, and Cai Zili, director of the revenue planning and accounting department of the State Administration of Taxation, said.

　　At the same time, the tax data show that the current national production and sales resumption of enterprises presents a positive feature, the production and living order is speeding up, and the economic operation is becoming normal.

Many batches of preferential tax policies have been implemented

Export tax rebate rate for export products ... After the epidemic occurred, China issued a number of preferential tax and fee policies to support epidemic prevention and control, reduce the burden on enterprises, and stabilize domestic demand for foreign trade expansion.

Fu Shulin, a spokesman for the State Administration of Taxation, introduced that in order to ensure that the various tax preferential policies and dividends benefit taxpayers and payers in a timely manner, the State Administration of Taxation is easy to do according to simplicity.

It is expected that the decline in tax revenue in the second quarter will be significantly narrower than in the first quarter." Cai Zili said.

The resumption of production and resale have five positive characteristics

　　At present, the resumption of production, resumption of production and sales have entered the "accelerated run" stage, what is the overall process? Tax big data has "words". The reporter learned that, because value-added tax covers all areas of the national economy, the value-added tax invoice invoice amount can reflect the economic operation in an objective and timely manner. After the epidemic occurred, the State Administration of Taxation used VAT invoice data to collect statistics on the number and amount of invoices issued by enterprises across the country since the Spring Festival, and compared with the situation of last year to effectively "outline" the process of enterprise resumption of production.

　　"Since the resumption of work, the national enterprises have resumed production and sales and presented five positive characteristics." Cai Zili introduced. First, the national enterprises resumed production and sales have been improving week by week, and the current sales revenue has been close to 95% of the comparable level last year; second, the manufacturing industry The resumption of production and sales is relatively fast. Nearly half of the industries exceeded the comparable level last year. National manufacturing sales revenue was 99.1% of the comparable caliber last year. Among them, food manufacturing, agricultural and sideline food processing and other industries performed outstandingly.

　　At the same time, the high-tech industry leads the process of resuming production and resuming sales, accelerating the growth of new kinetic energy and new formats. The data shows that the sales revenue of high-tech manufacturing industry is equivalent to 102.6% of the comparable caliber last year, and the sales revenue of high-tech service industry is 104.8% of the comparable caliber of last year. During the epidemic, the demands for home office and online education have spurred the rapid development of new formats. Resident telecommunications services, Internet services, and digital cultural services sales were 138.3%, 116%, and 105% of the comparable caliber last year.

　　"The fourth characteristic is that the overall recovery of domestic transportation and logistics is generally good, and the transportation of goods has basically returned to normal. Fifth, the consumption potential of residents has been speeded up, and the consumption of goods has recovered." Cai Zili further explained that supermarket convenience stores, food and beverage, medicine The retail sales revenue was 105.6%, 117.6% and 121.1% of the comparable caliber last year respectively, indicating that China's business recovery and resumption of the market are accelerating and residents' physical consumption is fully recovering.

Tax business environment continues to optimize

　　In order to further optimize the tax business environment, the tax department launched 54 tax payment service measures in three batches during the epidemic prevention and control period, vigorously promoted "contactless" services, actively carried out "silver tax interaction" activities, and effectively improved taxpayers, The convenience of taxpayers in tax payment helps small and micro enterprises to solve financing problems.

　　Today, "contactless" tax management has become mainstream. “The results of the taxpayer ’s tax payment and epidemic prevention and taxation needs survey conducted in March show that 92.65% of taxpayers handle business through the Electronic Taxation Bureau; the online handling of various tax-related matters has been widely recognized by taxpayers. Satisfaction with payment is 97.3%. "Said South Korea Rong, deputy director of the Tax Service Department of the State Administration of Taxation.

　　The "Tax-Bank Interaction" activity bears fruit-in the first quarter, the tax department pushed the list of more than 6 million key enterprises to the banks, and banking financial institutions issued 750,000 "Tax-Bank Interaction" loans, more than half of 2019 The small and micro enterprises received more than 180 billion yuan in "tax-bank interaction" loans, which played an active role in ensuring the employment of residents, basic livelihoods, market players, and the stability of the supply chain of the industrial chain.
