Frequently asked questions
Q:What taxes do anchors need to pay on their income?
First distinguish income from employment, personal services, business activities or a corporate entity, then check applicable income taxes, turnover taxes and withholding obligations. The label 'livestreamer' or the settlement channel alone does not determine the treatment, and the same tax rate cannot be applied indiscriminately to all income. Reference: Individual Income Tax Law
Q:How do MCN institutions settle accounts with anchors in compliance with regulations?
Clarify the genuine working relationship, attribution of income, revenue-sharing and deduction rules. Reconcile contracts, platform transaction records, settlement statements and required supporting documents, and meet applicable withholding and filing obligations. Fabricated partnerships, artificial income splitting or invoicing without a real business basis cannot replace genuine settlements.
