There are two methods of corporate income tax collection: approved collection and audit collection. Audit collection is based on the enterprise's declared income minus relevant costs and expenses, and then calculates the profit based on the profit multiplied by the corresponding tax rate to calculate the tax payable. Approved collection means that your costs and expenses are not considered. The tax authorities directly multiply the income by a fixed ratio (depending on the industry). The resulting number is regarded as your profit, and then multiplied by the corresponding tax rate based on the amount. Approved collection is generally suitable for small enterprises with imperfect accounting. For enterprises established after January 1, 2002, corporate income tax is paid at the national tax office. (Sole proprietorships do not pay corporate income tax, but pay personal income tax at local taxes).

Depending on the region where the enterprise is located, the urban construction tax rate is divided into 7% (urban area), 5% (county and town), 1% (other), and the education fee surcharge is 3%.
