Dear Sir or Madam,
Greetings!
As the year 2020 marks the inauguration of the construction of the Hainan Free Trade Port (FTP), we’d like to thank you for all your contribution to the construction of the Hainan FTP.
In accordance with the Overall Plan for the Construction of the Hainan Free Trade Port issued by the CPC Central Committee and State Council, the Circular (No.32 [2020]) on the Provisions Regarding Taxation of High-level and Urgently-needed Talent jointly issued by the Ministry of Finance and the State Taxation Administration (STA), and the Tentative Measures for the Management of the List of High-end and Urgently-needed Talent Eligible to Preferential Individual Income Tax Rate in the Hainan Free Trade Port (No.41 [2020]) issued by the Hainan Provincial People’s Government, it’s stipulated that:
The maximum individual income tax (IIT) rate for high-end and urgently-needed talent working in the the Hainan FTP is 15%;
The income herein refers to salaries or wages, remuneration for providing services, and royalties, and business income earned in the Hainan FTP and government-approved allowances received from the the Hainan FTP;
This preferential tax rate is applicable for tax returns filed in Hainan;
This policy is effective from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2024. From 2025 on, it will be replaced by a three-tiered progressive individual income tax system, at 3%, 10%, and 15%, for more taxpayers.
Based on our preliminary evaluation, we are glad to inform you that you fall in the category of high-end or urgently-needed talent in the the Hainan FTP (i.e. you are accredited talent by the competent provincial talent administration, your annual income reaches RMB 300,000 before tax, or you are on the list of urgently-needed talent in the Hainan FTP). You are eligible to tax refund provided that:

Your pre-tax annual income earned in the Hainan FTP exceeds RMB 425,000 (excl. Tax deductions like expenses for supporting parent(s) over 60-year-old); or
The payable tax of your annual business income exceeds RMB 210,000.
Your tax refund will be returned to your bank account after you file your tax return in the next year.
You do not need to apply for the tax return. Your tax information will be shared with competent agencies, and you will be included on the list of taxpayers entitled to the favorable individual income tax rate. In case you are worried that you may not be included on the list, you may submit supporting materials either online via：The one-stop provincial talent service platform (/static/upload/image/20201209/) or at the Hainan Provincial Government Service Center (2nd Floor, No.3 Wuzhishan South Road, Meilan District, Haikou) during the following designated period of time for filing your tax return:
