Value-added tax preference

Taxpayers providing technology transfer, technology development and related technical consultation and technical services are exempt from value-added tax.

When taxpayers apply for exemption from value-added tax, they must hold a written contract for technology transfer and development to the local competent department of science and technology for identification, and report the relevant written contract and the audit opinions of the competent department of science and technology to the competent tax authorities for future reference.

Domestic technology contracts are registered by the administrative department of science and technology, and the seller is registered locally. Where withholding is stipulated for overseas sellers of foreign-related contracts, it may be registered by domestic buyers.
