The Service
What YOUYI Reviews and Optimizes
We analyze how your company is structured, what it earns and spends, and how each transaction is documented, then identify legitimate tax-saving opportunities and tax risks. Every recommendation rests on genuine business activities, real transactions, appropriate supporting documents and applicable Chinese tax rules. We do not recommend artificial transactions, false invoices, hidden revenue or fabricated expenses, and we do not guarantee tax savings, incentive eligibility, treaty treatment or tax authority acceptance.
Business & tax structure review
We review the operating structure, business model and major transaction flows from a China tax perspective and identify where the structure raises tax cost or risk.
Corporate income tax planning
We review income, costs, deductible expenses and supporting documents against the relevant CIT treatment, and plan how the company can improve its position lawfully.
VAT & fapiao tax treatment review
We check VAT treatment against your actual transactions and business model, and whether invoice arrangements match the underlying business and accounting treatment.
Costs, expenses & supporting documents
We review deductible cost and expense treatment and whether the supporting documentation is adequate, then set the document requirements going forward.
Tax incentives & preferential policy review
We identify tax incentives or preferential policies that may apply to your actual circumstances. Whether the company qualifies depends on its circumstances and the applicable rules.
Transaction structure & tax efficiency
We review planned and existing transaction structures and identify more tax-efficient lawful alternatives where appropriate.
Historical tax-risk review
We review existing accounting, filing and transaction patterns to identify potential tax risks and set correction priorities.
Cross-border, withholding & profit distribution review
We review the practical China tax implications of cross-border transactions and payments, withholding tax at the transaction level, and the tax and documentation points of a dividend or profit distribution before it is implemented. Treaty entitlement is not assumed.

From Plan to Practice
We Implement the Changes That Fall Within Our Accounting and Tax Scope
A tax plan only helps once it is carried out. Where the agreed action falls within our accounting, bookkeeping, fapiao and tax-filing services, we make the changes and continue the monthly work — for example through our VAT and fapiao service and the wider accounting and tax compliance service.
For structural, contractual or highly specialist international-tax matters, we recommend the approach and coordinate its implementation. We do not carry out every legal, contractual or international-tax step ourselves.
Scope and Fee
What Determines the Scope of a Tax Planning Review?
The scope depends on your company, so we quote after the first conversation instead of publishing one price. The main drivers are below.
- Business model complexity — how the business earns and operates
- Number of entities — companies involved in the review
- Transaction types — the kinds of transactions in scope
- Number of tax issues — how many issues are under review
- Historical accounting condition — the state of past records
- Cross-border elements — payments and transactions across borders
- Related-party transactions — where related parties are involved
- Contract and record volume — how much we need to review
- Implementation required — whether we also carry out the changes
- Ongoing bookkeeping / filing — whether monthly work is included
What you receive
A defined review scope
After the first conversation we return:
- the scope confirmation
- an information request
- the review focus and expected deliverables
- the implementation boundary
- a quotation
Specialist Matters
When the Review Finds a Specialist International-Tax Issue
If the review identifies transfer-pricing, treaty or permanent-establishment issues that need specialist analysis, YOUYI identifies the issue and coordinates further professional review. These are secondary risk points in a review, not the main service on this page.
Buyer Questions
Questions About Tax Planning and Tax Optimization in China
These answers describe how our service works in general. Tax treatment depends on the company's facts and the applicable rules.
Can YOUYI legally help reduce our company's tax burden?
Yes. YOUYI reviews the company's actual business model, transactions, accounting treatment and applicable tax rules to identify lawful ways to improve tax efficiency and reduce unnecessary tax costs. Any planning must reflect genuine business activities and appropriate documentation.
What is the difference between tax planning and tax evasion?
Tax planning works within the rules, using genuine transactions and proper documentation to reach a lawful, better tax position. Tax evasion relies on artificial transactions, false invoices, hidden income or fabricated arrangements. We do not recommend any of those.
When should a company review its tax structure?
Ideally before a major step: setting up or changing the structure, signing a significant contract, making a cross-border payment, or distributing profit. A review is also useful when the business model has changed or the company has never had its tax position reviewed. Not every review leads to restructuring.
Can YOUYI review a transaction before we sign or implement it?
Yes. We review the planned transaction's tax treatment, its documentation requirements and the available structuring options, and recommend the approach before you commit.
Can YOUYI identify tax incentives or preferential policies that may apply?
Yes. We review your actual circumstances against potentially applicable incentives and preferential policies. Whether the company qualifies depends on its circumstances, and we do not guarantee eligibility.
Does tax planning guarantee tax savings?
No. We identify legitimate opportunities, but tax savings, tax authority acceptance, incentive eligibility and treaty treatment are not guaranteed, and the final treatment depends on the company's facts and the applicable rules.
Can YOUYI implement the recommended accounting, fapiao or tax-filing changes?
Yes, within the agreed accounting, tax and fapiao service scope, including accounting treatment, bookkeeping, fapiao workflow and filing adjustments. For structural, contractual or specialist international-tax matters outside that scope, we recommend the approach and coordinate implementation.
What information do you need for a tax planning review?
Business model information, major transaction flows, contracts, invoices, accounting and bank records, the current taxpayer and tax status, existing filings, and any planned transactions, related-party arrangements, dividends or cross-border payments. Not everything is needed at the start.
