Step by Step Gao Group Chairman
National People's Congress, the chairman of the group, said that this is unfair to the physical retail, proposed legislation on the taxation of electricity dealers
E-commerce in the two sessions of this year received a lot of attention. National People's Congress, step by step high Group chairman Wang completed this year, the two councils proposed "on the proposal to strengthen business supervision of the shop", "on the enactment of the Electronic Commerce Tax Collection and Management Act" and "E-commerce tax Collection and Management Act (draft)" to standardize the electronic business tax behavior. Wang said yesterday, compared with the physical stores, online shopping "Do not open invoices, not taxable" has become a latent rule, which is unfair to the physical retail. Earlier, Suningyun Group Chairman Jindong also proposed that the tax department should study the way of taxation, from the system level to evade tax evasion behavior.
NET purchase 70% unpaid tax
National People's Congress, step by step High Group chairman Wang said yesterday, the network shopping "do not open invoices not tax" has become a latent rule, according to China's relevant laws and regulations, all transactions occur, should pay taxes to the state, accept the supervision of various functional departments. Survey shows that the online shopping invoices only 30%,70% not pay any taxes, fees, only Alibaba network platform operated by the 2012 tax leakage, the cost of more than 35 billion yuan, the national platform-type electric dealers in tax evasion more than 100 billion yuan. This huge source of revenue, loss of costs mainly because there is no legislation on the Internet sales, tax and other functional departments at all levels have no legal regulations to follow.
Wang pointed out that for the network retail tax policy on the loose, objectively caused the network retail and physical retail unfair competition.
"At present and shop the same scale of operation, the entity store business mode determines its need to bear the rent, labor and the corresponding training costs, water and electricity costs compared to higher." "said the king. He suggested that the State should act as soon as possible to legislate on e-commerce tax. Can be small production and operation, monthly sales of less than value-added tax (business tax) starting point of the individual or partnership shop, the month is exempt from value-added tax (sales tax). Taxpayers with monthly sales exceeding the starting point will normally levy VAT.
recommended to strengthen business supervision of shop
With the development of information technology, the Internet has entered people's life, and has been affecting people in various aspects, such as basic necessities and so on. Wang fills in the view that in the rapid growth of the market at the same time, online shopping industry order appears to be chaotic miscellaneous. The subsequent negative effects caused by the chaos of the shop management, not only the serious problems such as the rampant piracy, the loss of huge tax revenue, the difficulty of consumer rights and so on, can not be followed, the market order tends to be chaotic and disorderly, which will seriously weaken the public credibility of the government.
In the reference to how to regulate the conduct of online transactions, Wang said: "Businesses to open physical stores, the business sector needs to apply for permits or business licenses, business hanging according to business, if there is no standard operation, the relevant departments can be investigated, but for online merchants, supervision still exist more gaps, Standardize the online virtual shop sales laws and regulations are not perfect. "
Wang filled in the motion proposed, proposed by the business sector led by the introduction of relevant laws and regulations, joint public security, taxation, banking supervision and other departments to strengthen the monitoring and management of shop. He also suggested that the network to establish a full network, can coordinate the industry and commerce, quality supervision, food supervision, health supervision and other law enforcement agencies of the professional institutions, unified coordination, regulation, supervision of online law enforcement activities, local law enforcement agencies to cooperate to ensure a fair market order.
Voice
The electricity merchant pays the tax suitably to control
Li, an analyst at the Analysys think-tank, believes that there is no such thing as lax or too strict regulation, and that any point of view represents the speaker's own attitude and interests. For example, Jindong proposed that the state strengthen regulation, is to give themselves more space. and step by step high standing in a supplier's position, should be hope to have a better sales platform.
Li said that the electrical business development to the present scale, should be properly taxed, but hope that the appropriate control, do not take the enterprise shot dead.

"We are not opposed to taxing, but we are also concerned about what can be done for this group after taxation, what can be done for these young people and what to do about the future," said Taobao's official microblog. "
Data show that 2003 when Taobao was first established, the turnover of 20 million yuan. 2011, Taobao split into Taobao, Cat and a Amoy net three companies. As of November 30, 2012, Taobao and the Sky Cat's turnover has exceeded 1 trillion.

Dialog
"Tax on shop and encourage small micro-enterprises is not contradictory"
Beijing News: Many people think that the low price of network sales, mainly because of the lower operating costs of the formation, and the entity shop because of a large number of façade rental costs, so must rely on higher prices to fill the cost, is this it?
Wang fills in: it is not so. Physical stores do need to pay for façade leasing, staff wages and other costs, but the shop also pay high logistics costs. Physical store goods logistics is bulk, the average cost is lower, and shop sales are mainly rely on courier and other means, the logistics cost of a single item is too high. The two offset, the electricity dealer than the physical store goods cheaper 10%-12% is normal.
The situation now is that the prices are too different. In my opinion, the price advantage of Internet retailing, on the one hand, is due to a large amount of capital promotion, subsidies to the price, on the other hand, because the operator does not levy VAT and income tax, some network retail enterprises sell products without ticket operation.
Beijing News: The country to encourage small micro-enterprises to develop, small micro-enterprises to tax relief, many online shops are small micro, this and you mentioned to the shop tax is contradictory?
Wang fills in: not contradictory. The state does stipulate that small microenterprises with annual turnover of less than 20,000 can be exempted, and I also believe that the tax exemption should be used to encourage these small micro enterprises to develop. On the annual turnover of 20,000 yuan below the small shop, still can be tax-free, this can be "Alipay" and other payment platform to carry out statistics.
BEIJING News: What do you think is the difficult point of e-commerce tax payment?
Wang fills in: The difficulty mainly has two aspects: first, the tax subject's determination. At present, the most effective monitoring means may still be "Alipay", but only rely on Alipay is not enough, because there are many online shop payment does not pass Alipay. Therefore, in order to lock these tax bodies, we must start with the business registration and tax registration of the shop, and need the cooperation of industry and commerce, information, Bank, quality inspection and so on to form a linkage supervision system.
Second, the determination of the main body of the tax, shop all over the country, it is difficult to determine its region. According to the area of the network platform to determine the subject of taxation, or according to the location of the shop to determine the subject of the tax? This may be the tax authorities must seriously study the issue. (LI)

Comment: Standardize the electric business industry is not "a tax on the spirit"
Opinion
"The same goods in the dealer's stores are often 50% cheaper than the physical stores, most of which are due to the benefits of not paying taxes." If this statement is true, it does not reflect the need to tax the electric shop, but the real store should be tax cuts.
Yesterday, the National People's Congress, the chairman of the Backgammon group, said that the electronic business tax should be regulated. Earlier, Suningyun Group Chairman Jindong also proposed that the tax department should study the way of taxation, from the system level to evade tax evasion behavior.
The electric business does need to standardize the operation, but uses "one tax on the spirit" the thought to look at the electric business profession regulation, feared will both harm the electric business profession the development, also does not favor the traditional retail industry the promotion, to the social employment and the economy also can bring the disadvantageous influence.
First of all, the electrical business is only a platform, its function is equivalent to a shop or counter. Commodity production, circulation, etc. are still in the real economy, enterprises are still in the real life, are to pay taxes, are also to be regulated, there is no tax loopholes and legal regulatory gaps. Many enterprises set up their own electronic platform to carry out online transactions, or to join the cat and other online platforms, the same need for tax, business and economic activities as always accept all kinds of supervision.
Two entrepreneurs may say some platform like Taobao, some small merchants may not pay some of the circulation of the tax. In fact, these Taobao store, the reason for survival, in addition to sales flexibility, low prices, the operation of labor, can be exempted from some taxes is also very important reasons.
In fact, these Taobao stores even in the real business environment, the vast majority of people can enjoy the tax relief of the group. If strict tax increases increase the transaction costs of these sellers, the price advantage of small sellers will no longer exist, if they eventually have to shut down another job, and its associated manufacturing, logistics personnel will follow unemployment. Then, even if the tax, will eventually become source, to increase the revenue does not contribute much.
In fact, the existing problems in the electric business sector are not a matter of regulation, nor is it a problem arising from taxation. As far as the dairy industry is concerned, the problems that have arisen over the years have been caused by the absence of a regulatory law and an absence of taxation. In E-commerce, there is a certain degree of credibility problems, low quality problems, the physical retail industry is also not uncommon. Therefore, to solve certain problems in the electric business sector, we need to give the community a good environment for restoring credit, rather than taxing or aggravating taxes.
In addition, according to Wang, the same goods are often 50% cheaper than real-store stores, most of which come from the benefits of not paying taxes. If the data is more in line with the truth, it does not reflect the need to levy a tax on the shop's stores, but rather to tax the entities ' outlets and cut taxes on the economy as a whole. At present, China's overall tax burden is high, social tax concessions are high, for the retail and business areas of tax reduction, should also be a focus. If the tax rate on turnover and retailing is significantly reduced, the decline in real-world stores is likely to change, and social sales and domestic demand will increase effectively.
