1. Tax nature of commission income
Commission is an integral part of labor remuneration and should be incorporated into wages and salaries for tax calculation according to the Personal Income Tax Law. The cumulative withholding method calculation will still apply in 2024, which is divided into the following two situations:
Income type | Tax calculation method | tax rate table |
---|---|---|
Regular salary + commission | Consolidated tax calculation | Comprehensive income tax rate |
Distribute commission separately | Calculation of tax based on labor remuneration | 20%-40% stepped tax rate |
2. Calculation steps for commission tax deduction in 2024
1. Determine the nature of income: distinguish whether it is paid together with salary
2. Calculate taxable income: income - exemption amount (5,000 yuan/month) - special deduction
3. Applicable tax rate: refer to the latest personal income tax rate table
Cumulative taxable income | tax rate(%) | quick calculation deductions |
---|---|---|
Not exceeding NT$36,000 | 3 | 0 |
36,000-144,000 yuan | 10 | 2520 |
144,000-300,000 yuan | 20 | 16920 |
300,000-420,000 yuan | 25 | 31920 |
3. Typical case calculation demonstration
Case 1:Monthly salary 8,000 yuan + commission 20,000 yuan, five insurances and one fund totaling 1,500 yuan
Taxable income = (8000+20000) - 5000 - 1500 = 21,500 yuan
Tax payable = 21500×3% = 645 yuan
Case 2:Separate quarterly commission of RMB 60,000 (no other salary)
Tax calculation based on labor remuneration: 60,000×80% = 48,000 yuan (deduct 20% of expenses)
Tax payable = 48,000×30% - 2,000 = 12,400 yuan
4. Precautions for tax saving
1. Reasonably plan the payment time: avoid abnormally high monthly income
2. Make full use of special additional deductions: children’s education, mortgage, etc.
3. The separate tax calculation policy for year-end bonuses will be extended to 2027
4. Consider splitting large commissions into different tax years.
