What are the Payroll Taxes in China?

As with most countries, China has a progressive taxation model that means the more your employees are earning in China the more they will have to pay in tax, as seen in the tables below. 

Companies employing workers in China are legally obliged to arrange and make payroll tax payments for employees. This includes: pension, unemployment, and insurance contributions, as well as each employee’s housing fund payments.  

While there are no local laws on personal income taxes, different cities may include minor differences to the amounts they require for social security contributions. 

Corporate tax in China is fixed at 25%.
