Event Reminder: Chinese Income Tax Online Seminar
While it may be true that tax collector is one of the two oldest professions, no pejorative comment affects the fact that tax collection, wherever it may occur, will put its hand in one's pocket and scrounge around for even loose change. The multinational, whose pockets are considered fertile territory for treasure hunting, feels the touch of many-fingered hands of all nationalities.
Thus, when a national tax code changes dramatically, as in the case of China's new corporate income tax, not only does the multinational itself encounter often obscure changes in reporting requirements and the amount of tax it must pay, but its effect upon the tax law of other nations in which the multinational reports taxes can be complex and ill-understood.
For example, the IRS has issued new guidances on how non-US companies controlled by US persons can achieve deferral of income tax. Specifically with regard to American businesses operating in China, how does one rationalize Chinese and American corporate tax regulations so as to minimize the total tax paid to both? What is the effect of the changes to the tax regulations upon transfer pricing? Should US subsidiaries operating in China conduct themselves in a certain way with regard to third-party subcontractors so as to ensure minimization of corporate tax, both in China and the US?
