The tax exemption rate is also called "zero tax rate". Refers to the tax rate of zero for a certain taxable object and a taxable object in a specific link. In theory, zero tax rate is different from tax exemption. Tax exemption refers to exempting certain taxable objects and certain taxpayers from their own taxable amount, while purchased goods or services are still tax-included.

The tax rate of zero is not only that the taxpayer's taxable object in this link does not pay taxes, but also the tax transferred from previous links must be refunded to achieve zero tax rate. However, in practice, the meaning of zero tax rate is not strictly used in different tax types. For example, if the income tax often corresponds to the tax-free amount of the taxable income at zero tax rate, of course, the income tax does not have the problem of transferring tax. Another example is the fixed-asset investment direction adjustment tax. An investment project with a zero tax rate only refers to the exemption of the taxable amount of the investment project itself.

What truly embodies the zero-tax rate is theoretically defined as a zero-value-added tax on export products, that is, taxpayers' export products can not only pay the taxable amount of the value-added in this link, but also refund the tax paid for the value-added in previous links.

The value-added tax exemption rules only exempt the taxpayers from the value added in this link. The goods and services purchased by the taxpayers are still tax-included. The zero-tax rate on exported products is intended to reward exports and enable Chinese products to compete in the international market at a completely tax-free price.
