Domestic Carbon Trading Regulations: Sellers Must Pay 5% Business Tax

  • The domestic carbon rights trading management measures will be implemented on August 15, with the first transaction expected in September.
  • Sellers of carbon rights will need to pay a 5% business tax to the Ministry of Finance.
  • The trading platform for carbon rights is managed by the Carbon Exchange, with fees collected and transferred to the Greenhouse Gas Management Fund.
  • Sellers of carbon rights will be subject to a 5% business tax as it is considered a sale of services within the country.
  • Fees collected by the platform from buyers will not be subject to business tax, as they are considered special public fees according to the Greenhouse Gas Management Measures.
