Dear taxpayers:
With a view to further optimizing taxation services, raising taxation efficiency and improving the business environment, the Beijing Municipal Office of the State Administration of Taxation ("SAT"), based on the overall work deployments of the SAT, takes the lead in expanding the scope of taxpayers for whom the certification of value-added tax ("VAT") invoices shall be cancelled:
With effect from August 21, 2017, the scope of taxpayers for whom VAT invoice certification shall be cancelled shall be further expanded from general VAT taxpayers with A-rated, B-rated and C-rated tax payment integrity to cover new and unrated general VAT taxpayers. All general VAT taxpayers other than those with D-rated tax payment integrity and those that are specific enterprises may log onto the selection and confirmation platform of the new VAT invoice management system to search, select and confirm the VAT invoice information to be used for applying for deduction or export tax refund.
