The tax bureau is the government agency responsible for tax collection. Paying taxes is the duty of every citizen.

2065438+March 2008, according to the "Deepening the Reform of Party and State Institutions" issued by the Central Committee, the national tax and local tax collection and management system was reformed. In order to reduce the collection cost, straighten out the responsibility relationship, improve the efficiency of collection and management, and provide taxpayers with better, more efficient and more convenient services, the national tax and local tax agencies below the provincial level will be merged to undertake the collection and management responsibilities of various tax and non-tax revenues within their respective jurisdictions. In order to improve the efficiency of the collection and management of social insurance funds, various social insurance premiums such as basic old-age insurance premiums, basic medical insurance premiums and unemployment insurance premiums are handed over to the tax authorities for unified collection. After the merger of national tax and local tax agencies, a dual leadership management system with People's Republic of China (PRC) and State Taxation Administration of The People's Republic of China as the main body and provincial (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) governments will be implemented. State Taxation Administration of The People's Republic of China should, jointly with provincial Party committees and governments, strengthen the leadership of the Party in the tax system, do a good job in Party building, ideological and political construction and cadre team building, optimize the tax organization system and tax collection and management responsibilities at all levels, improve the structural layout and power allocation according to the principle of combining "slimming" with "fitness", and build an optimized, efficient and unified tax collection and management system.
