Abstract

China’s individual income tax system includes a structure of income categories and taxpayer statuses. Whether an individual must pay income tax in China depends on where the income-generating activity was performed, whether the payer is a foreign or domestic entity, and on the basis of the residency status of the taxpayer. Taxpaying parties include residents of China and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, as well as residents of Macao and Taiwan, Chinese citizens living abroad, and foreign individuals living in China. The amount of tax the individual must pay depends on the type(s) of income earned, as each classification of income is subject to different tax rates and deductibles.
