The Chinese tax regime relies on the issuance of many circulars to supplement and interpret current tax provisions and to make tax adjustments to adapt to the ever changing economy. This online English language version of the unique bilingual tax publication, 2008 Latest PRC Tax Compliance, published by LexisNexis China, offers guidance to those trying to navigate this complex tax landscape, with a compilation of currently effective tax laws, regulations and rules, issued from the foundation of the People's Republic of China (PRC) to March 1, 2008.
Laws are issued by the National People's Congress (NPC) and its standing committee, the State Council (including the former Administrative Council), the Ministry of Finance, the State Administration of Taxation and the General Administration of Customs.
