Research on the Personal Income Tax of Chinese Network Anchors

Abstract

With the progress of Internet technology in China, with the outbreak of novel coronavirus at the end of 2019, the development of offline industry is sluggish, but the development of webcast industry is more rapid. At the same time, there are many hidden problems behind the rapid development. From 2021 to 2022, multiple malicious incidents of online anchors evading taxes were exposed, involving a huge amount of money and attracting widespread attention nationwide. Our country's financial revenue has also caused great losses in the cases of tax evasion and evasion by these online anchors. In addition to the quality of anchors, it also reflects that China's development in personal income tax supervision has not caught up with the development of the anchor industry in a timely manner. Currently, the tax authorities attach great importance to this issue and have successively introduced some regulations on tax related matters in the online live streaming industry. However, China's laws and regulations related to personal income tax are not sufficient to meet the requirements of tax supervision. The state maintains social stability, improves infrastructure, and provides complete social security. As public figures, internet anchors, based on their own influence, cannot shirk their corresponding social responsibilities. They should bear the obligation of positive publicity and guidance to the public, and the most basic step is to pay taxes in accordance with the law. The online live streaming industry is not an impossible place, but a place full of enthusiasm and a sense of responsibility to achieve self-worth.
