The difference between self-employed and small-scale taxpayers and ordinary taxpayers

Taxpayers are divided into small-scale taxpayers and general taxpayers.

Self-employed is a traditional saying, and also belongs to small-scale taxpayers. Among small-scale taxpayers, there are differences between enterprises and self-employed, mainly in the collection of income tax. Enterprises levy enterprise income tax, and individuals (including sole proprietorship enterprises) levy personal income tax.

Ordinary taxpayers are taxpayers whose annual sales reach a certain standard (500,000 yuan for industry and 800,000 yuan for business) or fail to meet this standard, but apply for it by themselves and get approval from the tax authorities.

Small-scale taxpayers apply a 3% levy rate.

General taxpayers apply the tax rate of 17%. However, ordinary taxpayers can deduct the input tax and issue special invoices for value-added tax.

These are the basic differences. For your reference.
