When an employee obtains an electronic ticket itinerary for a business trip, and the itinerary separately indicates the ticket amendment fee, can input tax be calculated on the amendment fee and deducted based on the purchase of passenger domestic transportation services?
A:
Sure. The ticket amendment fee listed on the itinerary of an electronic air ticket belongs to the scope of all the price and additional expenses obtained by the air transport enterprise from providing air transport services, input tax can be deducted.

Q:
Can the electronic VAT invoice for ticket cancellation fees issued by the airline company be used as an invoice for purchasing passenger transportation services for input tax deduction?
A: No, it's not possible. The ticket cancellation fee incurred by taxpayers does not belong to the category of "taxpayers’ purchasing domestic passenger transportation services", but rather to purchasing "other modern services". If a taxpayer obtains a VAT special invoice indicating "other modern services" for ticket cancellation fee, the input tax amount can be deducted with the VAT special invoice.
