# Zhitong Hong Kong Stock Early Knowledge | The Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation issued an announcement on tax policies related to gold. The Nasdaq recorded an increase for the 7th consecutive month

**【Today's Headlines】**

**The Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation issued an announcement on tax policies related to gold**

According to the Ministry of Finance website on November 1, the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation recently issued an announcement on tax policies related to gold. For investment demand, the exchange implements immediate VAT refund, while exempting urban maintenance and construction tax and education fee surcharge, and issues special VAT invoices to member units of the buying party based on the actual transaction price. For non-investment demand, the exchange exempts VAT and issues ordinary invoices to member units of the buying party based on the actual transaction price. For member units of the buying party that are general VAT taxpayers, the input tax amount is calculated based on the amount indicated on the ordinary invoice and a deduction rate of 6%.

After the policy is implemented, non-investment demand can deduct input tax at a rate of 6%, which reduces the burden on enterprises and benefits non-investment consumption gold jewelry merchants. After the implementation of this policy, the impact on gold prices is minimal, and the impact on gold mining enterprises' production is also small, benefiting leading gold jewelry merchants.
