China News Service, Beijing, February 24 (Reporter Zhao Jianhua) In recent years, China has continued to promote the establishment of a tax collection and management cooperation mechanism for the "Belt and Road" initiative, and supports "going out" and "bringing in."
Korea Rong, Director of the Tax Service Department of the State Administration of Taxation, introduced on the 24th that by the end of 2020, the State Administration of Taxation’s official website has publicly released investment tax guidelines for 104 countries (regions), basically covering the countries (regions) participating in the “Belt and Road” construction.
In 2021, it is planned to continue to deepen the research on taxation information by country, and update and release 50 country (region) investment tax guides in batches to further improve overseas tax information information services.

It is planned to release the first batch of nationally unified "non-penalty" tax-related items list including tax registration, data submission, tax declaration, invoice issuance, etc. before the end of March. For the first time, the taxpayer has the items listed in the list and If the circumstances are minor and the tax authorities take the initiative to make corrections before the tax authorities find out, or make corrections within the time limit ordered by the tax authorities to make corrections within a time limit, administrative penalties may not be imposed according to law.
In addition, China’s “contactless” tax payment has now reached 214 items, covering more than 90% of taxpayer-side tax collection and management business matters, of which 203 items can be handled online.
