How to determine the business scope of the new company?
It is believed that many new enterprises will encounter this problem today.
At present, the industrial and commercial registration has no clear provisions on how to write the business scope, neither the number of words nor the category restrictions. However, generally speaking, the business scope should be expressed as normatively and easily as possible. I really don't know how to write it. You can refer to the "National Economic Industry Classification" issued by the National Bureau of Statistics, where you can find relatively standard language expressions.
Remind all taxpayers that the business scope is not just what you want to do. Many things you want to do must be approved by the relevant departments!
1、 General business items and licensed business items
The licensed business items can be divided into "pre approval" and "post approval". In recent years' commercial reform, a large number of pre approval has been changed to post approval. Therefore, registered companies often need to go through commercial registration first, obtain business licenses, and then handle the corresponding licenses according to the provisions of the relevant departments before they can operate. For example, if you want to open a snack bar, fill in "catering services" in its business scope. After obtaining the business license, you need to apply for a Food Business License to officially open it. This is a licensed business item, and the snack bar belongs to the post approval.
There are two types of licensed business projects: "pre approval" and "post approval". Through the commercial reform in recent years, a large number of pre approval has been changed to post approval. Therefore, entrepreneurs often need to first go through commercial registration, obtain a business license, and then handle the corresponding license according to the provisions of the relevant departments before they can operate, just like the snack bar above.

3、 How to judge and handle?
Companies involved in pre approval need to get approval before they can be established. The companies with post approval have completed the industrial and commercial registration, but they cannot operate in this field without corresponding licenses.
Generally speaking, when receiving the business license, the window clerk will give a "Notification of Approval of Commercial Subject", which clearly states that a certain business scope you apply for needs to be approved by a certain department. Only after obtaining the license can it operate.
The departments involved in each type of permit are different, and the required data and handling procedures are also different, reminding bosses to pay special attention when handling.
Fill in the error warning
We have made it clear how to write the business scope. There are also common mistakes that we need to avoid!
1、 Pay no attention to the front and back of the business scope
Some enterprises operate businesses in multiple industries at the same time. At this time, the enterprise where the first business item in the business scope is located is the industry to which it belongs. The tax bureau often refers to the industry level for case selection indicators when conducting inspection, sorting out the wrong order, and being careful to suffer losses.
2、 Branches fill in randomly
When an enterprise establishes a branch, its business scope cannot exceed that of the head office because the branch cannot independently bear civil liability. Therefore, the business scope of the branch company should be within the business scope of the head office.
However, if an enterprise establishes a subsidiary, its business scope does not need to be within the business scope of the head office. Since parent and subsidiary companies often provide services to each other, the head office should increase the business scope of commercial services, and subsidiaries should increase the business scope of providing services to the head office.
3、 Verification and collection are not considered
Newly established enterprises that intend to apply for verification and collection shall avoid business scope that does not allow verification and collection.
[Case] The newly established company of Company B plans to apply for verification and collection, and the financial staff increases the business scope of patent agency and trademark agency when handling industrial and commercial registration. When applying for verification, the tax authority said that the patent agent could not verify the collection, and your company did not comply with the regulations, so Company B had to silently cancel and re establish the company
Therefore, enterprises that intend to verify the collection should pay more attention to the verification of their business scope and avoid the types that cannot be verified and collected as stipulated in GSH [2009] No. 377.
4、 The more business scope, the better
Since the business beyond the business scope cannot be invoiced by itself, it needs to be invoiced by the tax bureau. In order to save trouble, the financial staff wrote down the business scope they could think of. However, some businesses cannot enjoy preferential tax treatment.
5、 The more business scope, the better
The common business scope of various industries is often listed online. This kind of post can be used for reference. Don't copy all of them. Even enterprises in the same industry have different business priorities. Take VAT as an example. In mixed sales, the tax rate is determined according to the main business. For the same mixed sales business, the enterprise tax rate of different main businesses is different.
When determining the main business, the business scope is also a reference. The business scope should highlight the company's main business and avoid overpaying taxes.
