Question

Tax implications of selling and carrying

Answer
Recently, we have received calls from customers asking questions about freight forwarding. Based on this, we have listed the following questions to sort out how a business is taxed when it involves both sales and services.

Q:
What is a mix sale?
A:
An act of sale is a mixed sale if it involves both services and goods. That is, the sale or service is in fact one and the same business and cannot be separated.

Q:
What is Concurrent Sales?
A:
A taxpayer is engaged in the sale of goods, services, services, intangible assets or real estate at the same time. This means that the sales or services are separate businesses.

Q:
How are these two types of sales taxable?
A:
For concurrent sales, where different tax rates or levy rates apply, the sales to which different tax rates or levy rates apply shall be accounted for separately; if they are not accounted for separately, the tax rates shall be applied at a higher rate.
For mixed sales, units engaged in the production, wholesaling or retailing of goods and individual businesses shall pay VAT on the sale of goods; other units and individual businesses shall pay VAT on the sale of services.

Q:
Is the seller's provision of both sales and transportation services a mixed sale or a concurrent sale?
A:
First, it is necessary to confirm whether the seller is qualified to transport the goods and, if not, to entrust the transport to a third party transport agency.
Secondly, it is a mixed sale if it has a transportation qualification and is classified as part of the same business, or it is classified as a concurrent sale if it is not.

Q:
What are the conditions for paying the freight?
A:
The following conditions must also be met.
