摘要
China’s legislature passed the Individual Income Tax (ⅡT) revision bill in August, and aims to partially enforce the new code from October. The key revisions include a consolidated tax on selected sources of income, an increase in the basic deduction to CNY 5,000 from CNY 3,500, an adjustment in tax brackets favoring lower-income groups,and the introduction of special supplementary deductions. The new law is expected to reduce the tax burden on individual taxpayers, especially low-and middle-income groups, and improve income distribution.
