If we talk about taxes, then it is levied in every country. Yes, there is a difference. Just like there are direct and indirect taxes in India, in the same way people in China also have to pay many types of taxes. We all know that China is much more advanced than India in many matters. The world is also surprised to see many things here.

A similar case is with taxes. Some taxes here are so strange that you will be surprised after knowing about them. Taxes are levied on such things that people cannot even imagine. So let us know how India’s tax system is like China and what kind of taxes are collected from people here.

How many types of taxes are there in China

In China, taxes are levied at three levels. Some taxes are levied by the central government, some by the provincial government and some by the local authority. Generally, a huge amount of taxes are levied in China from 14 types of taxes, which include VAT, income and business tax. The tax system in China is quite similar to India. Because here also taxes are levied by the central government, state government and local authority.

Which taxes are levied by the provincial government

Just like there are different states in India, different provinces have been created in China. The government of these provinces is called Provincial Government. The head here is the Governor. The provincial government collects education surcharge, water resource tax and land appreciation tax from the people.

What is included in local government tax

At the same time, the local administration in different cities also collects taxes from the people. These include local education surcharge, local water resource tax, local land appreciation tax, property tax, urban construction tax.

People have to pay these taxes too

The list of taxes does not end here. Apart from these, Chinese people also pay custom duty, excise duty, house property tax, farmland occupation tax, vehicle tax, land use tax.

China also collects tax from foreigners

A country like China does not spare not only locals but also foreigners when it comes to taxes. This country also collects taxes from foreigners visiting here. Let us tell you that only 2-3 percent of the total population of China pays taxes. In such a situation, the government here also collects taxes from foreigners to compensate for itself. For example, if a foreigner stays here for more than 183 days for work or business, then he/she will have to pay tax. That is, his/her entire income will be subject to tax.

You have to pay tax even for keeping a dog

The Chinese government also levies taxes in many ways in the name of environmental protection. Furniture tax is levied here to reduce wood waste, while if one wants to keep a dog, the owner will have to pay tax to the government. Apart from this, taxes are also levied on things like bicycles, TV, discos and salt by the government.
