Is there still a sales tax in 2021

Legal analysis: the answer to the question of whether there is still a sales tax is that the state has canceled the sales tax after the reform. Business tax is a commodity and service tax on the turnover of units and individuals who provide taxable services, sell real estate and transfer intangible assets within the territory of China. Examples include the service industry (restaurants, hotels), postal and telecommunication industry, transportation industry, and construction industry. As an example, a hotel's annual revenue is 500,000 yuan, according to the 3% sales tax rate, the hotel will pay 15,000 yuan of sales tax.
