New Issue of China Briefing: The Asia Tax Comparator

Dec. 1 – The new issue of China Briefing Magazine, titled The Asia Tax Comparator, is out now and will be temporarily available as a complimentary PDF download on the Asia Briefing Bookstore throughout the month of December. This month’s issue also offers our new 2013 Asia Tax Guide as a complimentary supplement, providing an overview of corporate and individual income tax rates for key countries in emerging Asia.

In an increasingly inter-connected Asia, many foreign investors are looking beyond China, using the lens of their China experiences to understand the investment environment in countries such as India and Vietnam.

In this issue of China Briefing Magazine, we discuss corporate income tax, value-added tax, business tax, goods and service tax, withholding tax, and individual income tax as these apply in China, India, and Vietnam, as well as in the popular holding company destinations of Hong Kong and Singapore. This includes tax rates, descriptions, incentives, and deadlines, as well as the main FDI source countries/regions and industry-specific notes.

We hope that the comparative perspective presented here can help guide your foreign investment decisions.

Included in The Asia Tax Comparator:

  • A Look at China, India and Vietnam’s Corporate Taxes
  • Holding Company Destinations: Hong Kong and Singapore
  • Individual Income/Personal Income/Salaries Tax Comparison
  • Q&A: How Does Total Tax Rate (% Profit) Compare Across These Countries/Regions?

Meanwhile, The 2013 Asia Tax Guide contains details of individual tax rates, corporate tax rates, and related data for the following countries:

  • Bangladesh
