Content of the response

Jiangxi Provincial 12366 Tax Service Center of the State Administration of Taxation replied:

Your question has been received, and we would like to reply to the information you provided as follows:

1. According to the Interpretation and Provisions of the State Administration of Taxation of the Ministry of Finance on Several Business Issues of Real Estate Tax and Vehicle and Vessel Use Tax ((1987) Cai Shui Di Zi No. 3): 1. Interpretation of "real estate".

"Real estate" refers to property in the form of a house. A house is a place with a roof and envelope (with walls or columns on both sides) that can shelter people from the wind and rain and can be used for people to produce, work, study, play, live or store materials.

Buildings that are independent of the house, such as fences, chimneys, water towers, substation towers, oil tanks, wine cellars, alcohol pools, molasses pools, outdoor swimming pools, glass conservatories, brick and lime kilns, and various oil and gas tanks, are not real estate.

2. Explanation of the ancillary equipment of the house

The original value of the property should include all kinds of ancillary equipment that are inseparable from the house or supporting facilities that are generally not separately valued. Mainly: heating, sanitation, ventilation, lighting, gas and other equipment, all kinds of pipelines, such as steam, compressed air, oil, water supply and drainage pipelines, electricity, telecommunications, cable wires, elevators, lifts, aisles, sundecks, etc.

Water pipes, sewers, heating pipes, gas pipes, etc., which belong to the ancillary equipment of the house, are counted from the nearest visitation well or tee. The light net and lighting line are counted from the connection of the inlet box. ”

2. According to the notice of the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation on issues related to real estate tax and urban land use tax (CS [2008] No. 152), "1. How to determine the original value of real estate

 For real estate that is taxed according to the original value of the real estate, regardless of whether it is recorded in the fixed assets account of the accounting books, the real estate tax shall be calculated and paid according to the original price of the house. The original price of the house shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of the relevant national accounting system. If the taxpayer fails to account for and record in accordance with the provisions of the state accounting system, it shall be adjusted or reassessed in accordance with the regulations. ”

The above reply is for reference only, if you still have any questions about this, please contact Jiangxi Tax 12366 or the competent tax authority.

Peng Huaiwen said:

The answer to 12366 seems to have been answered, but it seems that there is no clear answer.

The new corridor between the factories has been integrated with the factories and is not a "building independent of the house", so it should be included in the scope of property tax.

As for the accounting subjects that should be collected, they are not within the scope of the tax bureau's answer, and it is normal not to answer. Lao Peng answered: The new corridor between the factories meets the recognition standards of fixed assets, and should be collected in the "construction in progress" when it occurs, and carried forward to the "fixed assets" after completion, and then depreciated in installments.

Attached below is a tax audit case on property tax for you to more fully understand the tax basis of property tax.
