(1) Taxpayers

Any individual who has domicile in China or who has no domicile in China but has resided in China for one year or more shall pay Individual Income Tax on his world-wide income. Any individual who is neither domiciled nor resident in China or who has resided in China for less than one year shall pay Individual Income Tax on the income from sources inside China.

(2) Taxable items and calculation of Individual Income Tax payable


a. Wages and salaries

Wages and salaries are taxed on the basis of the balance of taxpayer' s monthly wages and salaries after lump-sum deduction of 1600 yuan as expenses and by applying the nine-grade progressive rates as shown in the table below.
Individual Income Tax Rates Schedule (1)

Grade Monthly Taxable Income Tax Rate (%) Quick Deduction
1 Income of 500 yuan or less 5 0
2 That part of income in excess of 500 to 2, 000 yuan 10 25
3 That part of income in excess of 2,000 to 5, 000 yuan 15 125

9 That part of income in excess of 100,000 yuan 45 15375

The formula for computing the amount of tax payable is:

The taxpayers who have no domiciles in China but earn wages and salaries from China or who have domiciles in China and earn wages and salaries from outside China may enjoy additional expense deductions (currently 3200yuan per month) in addition to the regular monthly deduction of 1600 yuan in computing the taxable income.
