About

Master China's fapiao rules — and catch tax risks before they cost you money. In China, handling invoices (fapiao) correctly is the foundation of tax compliance. Book a non-compliant invoice and you lose the deduction; miss a risk signal and it becomes a finding in the annual audit. This app explains the rules in plain English — and alerts you the moment an invoice crosses the line.

Received invoices — compliant? deductible? creditable? 2. Issued invoices — the right invoice type for your business 3. Company incentives — VAT and CIT breaks you may qualify for 4.
