Extend the reform of resource tax pilot oil and gas and rare earth or first

Sources said that the pilot program for expanding resource tax reform has been submitted to the State Council. The resource tax reform will be changed from specific measurement to ad valorem direction, and the scope of taxation will be extended to other resource products on the basis of oil and natural gas. According to industry sources, the situation in different areas related to resource taxes is different, and the process of pilot implementation will be different. Oil and natural gas and rare earths may go one step ahead.

From the past process, oil and natural gas are the fastest. On June 1, 2010, it took the lead in reforming the oil and natural gas resources tax in Xinjiang. On December 1 of the same year, it also expanded the Xinjiang resource tax reform program to 12 provinces and autonomous regions including Inner Mongolia and Gansu.

In recent days, international oil prices have been lower. Zhuo Chuang Information Researcher said that the current global economic environment is still not optimistic, the late international crude oil or a sharp downward trend.

The shift in international oil prices has led to the expected increase in the ceiling price for domestic refined oil retail products, which has turned into an expected reduction in the gradual increase. According to industry analysts, enterprises that have more crude oil and natural gas resources in China will be greatly affected if the resource tax is increased.

Since the beginning of this year, the pressure of inflation has increased. The industry generally believes that the reform of the resource tax will depend on the face of CPI. However, Jia Kang, director of the Finance Department of the Ministry of Finance, said that to "manage inflation expectations" does not mean that there is a realistic and widespread inflationary pressure. He believes that now is the best time to cherish the resources tax reform that should be seized. Recently, the revised "Provisional Regulations on the Resource Tax of the People's Republic of China" (referred to as the "Regulations") has also shown that the resource tax reform has not stopped.

Jia Kang said that practice has proved that once the resource tax reform is initiated, positive effects will be significant for a region with less developed western regions and resource-rich regions such as Xinjiang, which will not only help promote the transformation of China's economic development patterns, but also help accelerate its owed debts. The development of developed regions will provide the underdeveloped regions with the main source of their local tax system.

This time, the "Regulations" show that the future reform of the oil and gas resource tax will increase, and the tax rate for oil and gas resources will be set at 5%-10%. However, the intensity of the collection of coal resources tax is smaller than expected in the industry. In the future, the collection method of coal resources tax will remain unchanged, and the resource tax rate will increase from the original RMB 0.3 yuan to RMB 5 yuan per ton to RMB 0.3 yuan per ton*** yuan. In the rare earth field, the resources tax will be increased and at the same time, the resource tax reform will be selected and the price-levying mode will be tried.
