Extended data:

The VAT rate refers to the ratio of the total tax amount of VAT taxable products to the sales revenue. Because the value-added tax is levied on the value-added tax of taxable products, and at the same time, the consistency of the tax burden of the same product must be maintained, it is a major feature of the design of the value-added tax rate to determine the applicable tax rate from the overall tax burden of taxable products. Generally, tax can be calculated according to the VAT deduction method, using both VAT rate and VAT deduction rate.

The current value-added tax adopts the product proportional tax rate, which is divided into 8%, 12%, 14%, 16%, 18%, 20%, 2 1%, 23%, 26% and 30. The tax rates of most products are determined by conversion on the basis of the original industrial and commercial tax and product tax, and the tax rates of some products are appropriately adjusted on the basis of the original tax.

(1) The taxpayer sells or imports goods at a tax rate of 16%, except as stipulated in the second and third items below.

Small-scale taxpayer

Small-scale taxpayers are taxpayers whose annual sales do not meet the above standards. In addition, individuals, non-enterprise units and enterprises that do not often engage in VAT taxable activities are also recognized as small-scale taxpayers. Small-scale taxpayers can become ordinary taxpayers after their applications are approved.

Small-scale taxpayers can collect value-added tax in a simple way, and their input tax cannot be deducted.

The VAT rate of small-scale taxpayers selling goods or taxable services is 3%.

general taxpayer

In addition, for productive taxpayers, this standard can be relaxed to 300,000 yuan if their accounting is sound, but for non-productive commercial enterprises, no matter whether their accounting is sound or not, they must meet the standard before they can be recognized as ordinary taxpayers.
