一、有的意见提出,为保证税款征收,金融监督管理部门除协助税务机关确认纳税人的银行账户信息外,还应当协助确认其他金融账户信息,建议补充完善相应规定。宪法和法律委员会经研究,建议将草案第十一条中的“银行账户信息”修改为“金融账户信息”。
二、有的常委委员提出,草案第十条关于纳税人取得经营所得于“次年三月三十一日前”办理汇算清缴,以及扣缴义务人未扣缴税款,纳税人应在“次年六月三十日前”缴纳税款的规定不够精确,建议将有关期限的表述修改为“取得所得的次年三月三十一日前”、“取得所得的次年六月三十日前”。宪法和法律委员会经研究,建议采纳这一意见。
此外,根据常委会组成人员的审议意见,还对草案作了个别文字修改。

全国人民代表大会宪法和法律委员会关于《中华人民共和国个人所得税法修正案(草案)》审议结果的报告
来源: 中国人大网
全国人民代表大会常务委员会:
常委会第三次会议对个人所得税法修正案草案进行了初次审议。会后,法制工作委员会将草案印发各省、自治区、直辖市、中央有关部门和部分高等院校、研究机构征求意见,在中国人大网全文公布草案征求社会公众意见。法制工作委员会还到北京进行调研,听取意见;并就草案的有关问题与有关部门交换意见,共同研究。宪法和法律委员会于7月26日召开会议,根据常委会组成人员的审议意见和各方面意见,对草案进行了逐条审议。财政经济委员会、预算工作委员会、司法部、财政部、国家税务总局的有关负责同志列席了会议。8月20日,宪法和法律委员会召开会议,再次进行审议。宪法和法律委员会认为,为落实党中央“逐步建立综合与分类相结合的个人所得税制”的改革要求和相关决策部署,更好地发挥个人所得税调节收入分配的作用,对个人所得税法进行修改是必要的,草案内容总体可行。同时,提出以下主要修改意见:
一、有的常委委员和有关方面提出,按照税收法定的要求,应纳税所得的范围、减免税均属于个人所得税的税制基本要素,个人所得税法中关于“其他所得范围”“其他减免税情形”由国务院财政部门确定或者批准的规定,不符合立法法的有关规定,建议将相关事项尽量在法律中明确,确实无法在法律中明确的,也应由国务院作出规定。宪法和法律委员会经研究,建议对相关内容作以下修改:一是,考虑到目前个人所得税法中列明的所得范围已经比较全面,可不必再由国务院或其有关部门确定“其他所得”,删除了现行个人所得税法第二条最后一项“经国务院财政部门确定征税的其他所得”的规定。二是,将现行个人所得税法第四条第十项、第五条第三项“经国务院财政部门批准免税的所得”“其他经国务院财政部门批准减税的”分别修改为“国务院规定的其他免税所得”“国务院可以规定其他减税情形”;同时分别增加规定,国务院关于免税、减税的规定,应当报全国人大常委会备案。
二、有的常委委员和专家提出,稿酬所得需要长期的智力投入,在税负上应给予一定的优惠;有的建议,对于劳务报酬所得、稿酬所得、特许权使用费所得,应在减除必要的费用后计算收入额,以体现量能课税、净所得征税的原则。宪法和法律委员会经研究,建议采纳这一意见,将第五条第二款修改为:劳务报酬所得、稿酬所得、特许权使用费所得以收入减除百分之二十的费用后的余额为收入额,其中,稿酬所得的收入额减按百分之七十计算。
三、草案第五条对专项附加扣除作了规定,居民个人的子女教育、继续教育、大病医疗、住房贷款利息和住房租金等支出,可以在税前予以扣除。有些常委会组成人员和有关方面提出,为了弘扬尊老孝老的传统美德,充分考虑我国人口老龄化日渐加快,工薪阶层独生子女家庭居多、赡养老人负担较重等实际情况,建议对于赡养老人支出,也予以税前扣除。宪法和法律委员会经研究,建议采纳这一意见。
四、有的意见提出,个人所得税法中的一些规定过于原则,如公益慈善事业捐赠扣除标准,专项附加扣除的具体范围、标准等,均要求国务院或者国务院部门予以细化,法律的权威性和可操作性不强,建议研究修改。宪法和法律委员会经研究,建议结合当前的实际做法,对相关规定作以下补充和修改:一是,在法律中直接对公益慈善事业捐赠扣除予以明确,即:个人将其所得对公益慈善事业进行捐赠,捐赠额未超过应纳税所得额百分之三十的部分,可以从其应纳税所得额中扣除;国务院规定对公益慈善事业捐赠实行全额税前扣除的,从其规定。二是,将草案关于专项附加扣除的具体范围、标准和实施步骤“由国务院财政、税务主管部门商有关部门确定”的规定修改为“由国务院确定,并报全国人民代表大会常务委员会备案”。
五、有的常委会组成人员和有关方面提出,为便于纳税人了解相关信息,准确进行年度汇总申报,扣缴义务人在办理扣缴申报后,应当向纳税人提供相关扣缴信息。宪法和法律委员会经研究,建议增加规定,扣缴义务人应当“向纳税人提供其个人所得和已扣缴税款等信息”。
需要说明的是,在常委会审议和征求意见过程中,还有一些意见建议进一步提高基本减除费用标准,适当降低综合所得最高边际税率。上述问题,国务院有关部门在草案起草阶段进行过认真研究测算,相关规定兼顾了当前居民基本生活消费支出变化、税收调节收入分配的实际需要等情况。这次改革,通过提高基本减除费用标准,增加专项附加扣除,优化调整税率结构、扩大低档税率的级距等方式,减轻了广大纳税人的税收负担,使个人所得税税负水平更趋合理,实现了从分类税制向综合与分类相结合的个人所得税制的重大转变,个人所得税制改革迈出了关键一步。宪法和法律委员会经同国务院有关部门研究,建议对上述问题的有关规定不作修改;同时,建议国务院方面结合征管及配套条件的完善,进一步深化相关改革,逐步扩大综合征税范围,完善费用扣除,优化税率结构,并根据改革进程对上述问题予以统筹考虑,抓紧总结改革实践经验,积极回应广大人民群众的关切,及时提出对相关制度进行修改完善的建议。
此外,还对草案作了一些文字修改。
宪法和法律委员会已按照上述意见提出了全国人民代表大会常务委员会关于修改《中华人民共和国个人所得税法》的决定(草案),建议提请本次常委会会议审议通过。
修改决定草案和以上报告是否妥当,请审议。

关于《中华人民共和国个人所得税法修正案(草案)》的说明
——2018年6月19日在第十三届全国人民代表大会常务委员会第三次会议上
财政部部长 刘昆
全国人民代表大会常务委员会:
我受国务院委托,现对《中华人民共和国个人所得税法修正案(草案)》作说明。
个人所得税是目前我国仅次于增值税、企业所得税的第三大税种,在筹集财政收入、调节收入分配方面发挥着重要作用。党中央、国务院高度重视推进个人所得税改革工作。习近平总书记指出,财政是国家治理的基础和重要支柱,科学的财税体制是优化资源配置、维护市场统一、促进社会公平、实现国家长治久安的制度保障,要深化税收制度改革,逐步建立综合与分类相结合的个人所得税制。李克强总理在2018年政府工作报告中提出,改革个人所得税,提高个人所得税起征点,增加子女教育、大病医疗等专项费用扣除,合理减负,鼓励人民群众通过劳动增加收入、迈向富裕。
为贯彻落实党中央、国务院决策部署,财政部、税务总局会同有关部门抓紧研究起草了《中华人民共和国个人所得税法修正案(草案送审稿)》。草案已经国务院同意。现说明如下:
一、修改的总体思路
这次修改个人所得税法,旨在落实党中央、国务院关于个人所得税改革的决策部署,依法保障个人所得税改革顺利实施。修改工作坚持突出重点,对现行个人所得税法不适应改革需要的内容进行修改,补充、完善保障改革实施所需内容。对其他内容,原则上不作修改。
二、修改的主要内容
(一)完善有关纳税人的规定。
现行个人所得税法规定了两类纳税人:一是在中国境内有住所,或者无住所而在境内居住满一年的个人,从中国境内和境外取得的所得,缴纳个人所得税;二是在中国境内无住所又不居住,或者无住所而在境内居住不满一年的个人,从中国境内取得的所得,缴纳个人所得税。从国际惯例看,一般将个人所得税纳税人分为居民个人和非居民个人两类,两类纳税人在纳税义务和征税方式上均有所区别。现行个人所得税法规定的两类纳税人实质上是居民个人和非居民个人,但没有明确作出概念上的分类。为适应个人所得税改革对两类纳税人在征税方式等方面的不同要求,便于税法和有关税收协定的贯彻执行,草案借鉴国际惯例,明确引入了居民个人和非居民个人的概念,并将在中国境内居住的时间这一判定居民个人和非居民个人的标准,由现行的是否满1年调整为是否满183天,以更好地行使税收管辖权,维护国家税收权益。(第一条)
(二)对部分劳动性所得实行综合征税。
现行个人所得税法采用分类征税方式,将应税所得分为11类,实行不同征税办法。按照“逐步建立综合与分类相结合的个人所得税制”的要求,结合当前征管能力和配套条件等实际情况,草案将工资、薪金所得,劳务报酬所得,稿酬所得,特许权使用费所得等4项劳动性所得(以下称综合所得)纳入综合征税范围,适用统一的超额累进税率,居民个人按年合并计算个人所得税,非居民个人按月或者按次分项计算个人所得税。同时,适当简并应税所得分类,将“个体工商户的生产、经营所得”调整为“经营所得”,不再保留“对企事业单位的承包经营、承租经营所得”,该项所得根据具体情况,分别并入综合所得或者经营所得。对经营所得,利息、股息、红利所得,财产租赁所得,财产转让所得,偶然所得以及其他所得,仍采用分类征税方式,按照规定分别计算个人所得税。(第二条)
(三)优化调整税率结构。
一是综合所得税率。以现行工资、薪金所得税率(3%至45%的7级超额累进税率)为基础,将按月计算应纳税所得额调整为按年计算,并优化调整部分税率的级距。具体是:扩大3%、10%、20%三档低税率的级距,3%税率的级距扩大一倍,现行税率为10%的部分所得的税率降为3%;大幅扩大10%税率的级距,现行税率为20%的所得,以及现行税率为25%的部分所得的税率降为10%;现行税率为25%的部分所得的税率降为20%;相应缩小25%税率的级距,30%、35%、45%这三档较高税率的级距保持不变。(第三条、第十六条)
二是经营所得税率。以现行个体工商户的生产、经营所得和对企事业单位的承包经营、承租经营所得税率为基础,保持5%至35%的5级税率不变,适当调整各档税率的级距,其中最高档税率级距下限从10万元提高至50万元。(第三条、第十七条)
(四)提高综合所得基本减除费用标准。
按照现行个人所得税法,工资、薪金所得的基本减除费用标准为3500元/月,劳务报酬所得、稿酬所得、特许权使用费所得,每次收入不超过4000元的,减除费用800元;4000元以上的,减除20%的费用。草案将上述综合所得的基本减除费用标准提高到5000元/月(6万元/年)。这一标准综合考虑了人民群众消费支出水平增长等各方面因素,并体现了一定前瞻性。按此标准并结合税率结构调整测算,取得工资、薪金等综合所得的纳税人,总体上税负都有不同程度下降,特别是中等以下收入群体税负下降明显,有利于增加居民收入、增强消费能力。该标准对于在中国境内无住所而在中国境内取得工资、薪金所得的纳税人和在中国境内有住所而在中国境外取得工资、薪金所得的纳税人统一适用,不再保留专门的附加减除费用(1300元/月)。(第五条)
(五)设立专项附加扣除。
草案在提高综合所得基本减除费用标准,明确现行的个人基本养老保险、基本医疗保险、失业保险、住房公积金等专项扣除项目以及依法确定的其他扣除项目继续执行的同时,增加规定子女教育支出、继续教育支出、大病医疗支出、住房贷款利息和住房租金等与人民群众生活密切相关的专项附加扣除。专项附加扣除考虑了个人负担的差异性,更符合个人所得税基本原理,有利于税制公平。(第五条)
(六)增加反避税条款。
目前,个人运用各种手段逃避个人所得税的现象时有发生。为了堵塞税收漏洞,维护国家税收权益,草案参照企业所得税法有关反避税规定,针对个人不按独立交易原则转让财产、在境外避税地避税、实施不合理商业安排获取不当税收利益等避税行为,赋予税务机关按合理方法进行纳税调整的权力。规定税务机关作出纳税调整,需要补征税款的,应当补征税款,并依法加收利息。(第六条)
此外,为保障个人所得税改革的顺利实施,草案还明确了非居民个人征税办法,并进一步健全了与个人所得税改革相适应的税收征管制度。
《中华人民共和国个人所得税法修正案(草案)》和以上说明是否妥当,请审议。
