Tax planning refers to a series of tax-related matters, such as the business activities or investment activities of the tax payers (legal or natural persons), which are arranged in advance before the occurrence of tax-paying activities and without violating laws, regulations (tax laws and other relevant laws and regulations), so as to achieve the goal of tax reduction or deferred payment. Plan activities. Tax planning is a basic right of the taxpayer. The income obtained by the taxpayer should be legitimate income under the premise that the law permits or does not violate the tax law. Tax planning has the characteristics of legality, planning, purpose, risk and professionalism.
Tax planning is based on the objective policy space of tax law, which is embodied in different kinds of taxes, different preferential tax policies, different taxpayers'status, different regions and the basic elements of tax system that affect the amount of tax payment, and so on. Therefore, the objective space of these tax laws should be taken into consideration. Enter the point.
In principle, tax planning can be targeted at all kinds of taxes, but because of the different nature of different taxes, the ways, methods and benefits of tax planning are also different. In practice, we should choose the tax which has a significant impact on the decision-making as the focus of tax planning; choose the tax which has a large elasticity of tax burden as the focus of tax planning, the greater the elasticity of tax burden, the greater the potential of tax planning. Generally speaking, the tax source is large, and the elasticity of tax burden is large. Therefore, tax planning naturally aims at the main categories of taxes. In addition, the elasticity of tax burden also depends on the elements of tax categories. This includes tax base, deductions, tax rates and tax preferences. The wider the tax base, the higher the tax rate, the heavier the tax burden; or the greater the tax deduction, the more tax incentives, the lighter the tax burden.
Tax preference is an important element in the design of tax system, and also an important means to implement the tax policy of a country or region in a certain period. In order to realize the function of tax adjustment, the state generally has tax preferential clauses in the design of tax categories. If enterprises make full use of tax preferential clauses, they can enjoy the benefit of tax saving. Therefore, to make good use of the preferential tax policy is the process of tax planning. When choosing preferential tax policies as breakthroughs in tax planning, we should pay attention to two problems: first, taxpayers should not misinterpret preferential tax provisions, abuse preferential tax provisions, and cheat tax preferences by deceptive means; second, taxpayers should fully understand the preferential tax provisions and apply according to the prescribed procedures to avoid losing due to improper procedures. We should have rights and interests.
