1Pay salaries to shareholders.

Shareholders can be employees of a company. Then it is reasonable and legal to be paid as an employee. Through salary and annual bonus payment, individual income tax can be greatly reduced. Because as an individual to receive wages is the amount of exemption and special deduction, is a part of the individual tax credit. We now pay personal income tax on the basis of our comprehensive income.

However, it should be noted that the amount of imprest received should first comply with the company's regulations, and relevant invoices should be provided in the later offset, and it must also be related to the production and operation of the enterprise, so that the imprest received can be legally and reasonably offset. What does it mean to be relevant to the production and operation of the company?For example, if a client needs to be entertained for a project, such expenditure is called related to the production and operation of the company, and the invoice can be used to offset the imprest fund.

3Direct reimbursement: shareholders' payments related to production and operation, such as business entertainment expenses, fuel expenses, accommodation expenses, etc., can be reimbursed according to the company's system after the actual expenses

4Asset royalty: For example, if the shareholder rents a car to the company, the company can sign a lease contract with the shareholder, and the company pays the lease fee to the shareholder. But in this case, shareholders need to pay personal income tax.

5Shareholder dividend: Shareholder dividend is based on the shareholders' agreement of the company, the agreed dividend ratio or to sign the agreement, according to the company's articles of association to dividend. But shareholder dividends also need to pay personal income tax, and the tax rate is relatively high, yes20%Tax rate.
