2015-04-09 | Shanghai
China tax authorities have been continually strengthening anti-tax avoidance efforts and expanding areas of enforcement of anti-tax avoidance rules. Two new significant anti-tax avoidance rules have been rolled out and came into effect in 2015: “Measures for Administration of General Anti-tax Avoidance (for Trial Implementation)” and “Announcement of the State Administration of Taxation Concerning Matters Relating to Corporate Income Tax on Indirect Transfer of Properties by Non-tax Resident Enterprises”.
On April 9th, Martin Ng, Managing Partner of WTS China, provided his insights on these newly enforced rules, share his experiences and highlight cases in managing the tax-avoidance risks. Sophie Wei, Counsel at Taylor Wessing, offered a legal perspective by analysing a few recent tax disputes cases, with a focus on critical legal aspects in tax planning, transactional legal documents preparation, application of law in tax disputes, legal remedies and limitations.
