Core Viewpoint - The article highlights six common misconceptions regarding VAT declaration, aiming to assist taxpayers in correctly completing their VAT submissions for the month. Group 1: Misconceptions and Correct Interpretations - Misconception 1: Gifts to clients do not require VAT declaration. Correct Interpretation: Gifts purchased for clients are considered a sale under tax law and must be declared for VAT [3][4][5]. - Misconception 2: Small-scale taxpayers who register as general taxpayers mid-quarter do not need to file small-scale taxpayer declarations. Correct Interpretation: They must complete both small-scale taxpayer and general taxpayer declarations for the corresponding periods [6][7]. - Misconception 3: Small-scale taxpayers with monthly sales under 100,000 yuan can file zero VAT declarations. Correct Interpretation: Exemption from VAT does not equate to zero declaration; actual exempt amounts must be reported [8][9][10]. - Misconception 4: Companies can deduct input VAT for rented properties used as employee dormitories. Correct Interpretation: Input VAT for employee dormitories cannot be deducted, even with a special invoice [12][13][14]. - Misconception 5: General taxpayers can fully deduct input VAT on water and electricity bills when engaging in both simplified and general taxation projects. Correct Interpretation: Only the portion of input VAT related to general taxation projects can be deducted; the rest must be calculated and adjusted accordingly [15][16][17]. - Misconception 6: General taxpayers can only deduct input VAT at a 9% rate for agricultural products. Correct Interpretation: If agricultural products are used for producing or processing goods at a 13% rate, an additional 1% can be deducted, totaling a 10% deduction rate [18][19].
