Book excerpt: The chapter on tax administration and legislative principles addresses the basic concepts that need to be observed in designing effective, equitable and efficient tax reform. The use of taxation as a policy tool and rights and obligations of taxpayers are also dealt with. The chapter on individual income tax provides a conceptual overview of a modern individual income tax system that the authors recommend as the longer-term framework for China's short and medium-term decisions on tax reforms. The chapter on enterprise income tax, taking into account China's intention to modernize the enterprise income tax system and replace the two current laws on enterprise tax with one law, discusses the building blocks of a modern system. The chapter on VAT and business tax develops a VAT design against the background of VAT models and sources of VAT law in other countries and addresses the desirability of VAT and business tax being merged. The chapter on China's WTO accession and tax reform discusses China's WTO-related obligations in the area of taxation.

Book excerpt: Building on previous FAD work in the tax administration field, this paper defines broad criteria for diagnosing the problems in a country’s tax administration and formulating an appropriate reform strategy. To be effective, this strategy should be based on the size of the tax gap and the country’s particular circumstances. This paper discusses some guiding principles which have provided the basis for successful reforms, including: reducing the tax system’s complexity, encouraging taxpayers’ voluntary compliance, differentiating the treatment of taxpayers by their revenue potential, and ensuring the reform’s effective management. Also discussed are specific bottlenecks that hinder the effectiveness of the tax administration’s operations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China Development Research Foundation is one of the leading economic think tanks in China, where many of the details of China’s economic reform have been formulated. Its work and publications therefore provide great insights into what the Chinese themselves think about economic reform and how it should develop. This book presents a comprehensive survey of China’s reforms of the last thirty years. Its coverage includes macroeconomic policy; banking, finance, capital markets and tax; trade; labour markets; price reform; social security; and much else. Overall, it provides an invaluable assessment of the reforms from the perspective of experts within China, including an appraisal of how extensive the reforms have been, what consequences have turned out, and how far the reforms have been successful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is the result of a joint research project on the tax treaties concluded between the People’s Republic of China and European countries. Each chapter carefully analyses the extent to which Chinese tax treaties follow the OECD Model Tax Convention on Income and Capital and the UN Income and Capital Model Convention. The focus is on the different policy decisions underlying the various provisions. Additionally, the contributions analyse the extent to which Chinese tax treaty policy differs with respect to EU and non-EU Member States. They also highlight relevant policy changes over time. The fact that each contribution is the product of the collaboration between European and Chinese researchers and includes the results of the International Conference on Europe - China Tax Treaties Research, held in March 2009 in Beijing, serves to enrich its analysis. Among the topics covered are the following: • Treaty Entitlement (Articles 1, 4 and 24 OECD Model) • Business Profits (Articles 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 14 OECD Model) • Passive Income (Articles 10, 11, and 12 OECD Model) • Capital Gains (Article 13 OECD Model) • Employment Income (Articles 15, 16, 18, 19, and 20 OECD Model) • Artistes and Sportsmen (Article 17 OECD Model) • Methods to Avoid Double Taxation (Article 23 OECD Model) • Non-Discrimination (Article 24 OECD Model) • Mutual Agreement, Exchange of Information and Mutual Assistance in the Collection of Taxes (Articles 25, 26 and 27 OECD Model)

It also provides a detailed analysis of the historical development of China's healthcare system, the current state of its broad reforms, and the uneasy balance between China's market-driven approach and governmental regulation.

Burns and Liu have assembled the latest research from leading health economists and political scientists, as well as senior public health officials and corporate executives, making this book an essential read for industry professionals, policymakers, researchers, and students studying comparative health systems across the world.

Book excerpt: The People’s Republic of China’s tax policies and international obligations are as multifaceted and dynamic as they are complex, developing closely with the nation’s rise to the world’s fastest-growing major economy. Today, after decades of reform and the entry into the World Trade Organization, China has developed regulatory systems that enable it to provide stable administration, including a tax structure. China’s main tax reform can be attributed to the enactment of the Enterprise Income Tax Law, which came into effect on January 1, 2008. Chinese tax regulations include direct taxes, indirect taxes, other taxes, and custom duties and from a collection point of view, China’s tax administration adopts a very devolved system, with revenue collected and shared between different levels of government in accordance with contracts between the different levels of the tax administration system. With respect to international treaties, China has established a network of bilateral tax treaties and regional free trade agreements. This publication describes in detail China’s complex tax system and policies, as well as major bilateral treaties in which China has entered into using country-by-country analysis.
