BEIJING, Jan. 16 (Xinhua) -- China will continue to implement preferential personal income tax policies related to listed companies' equity incentives and stock connect programs between the mainland and Hong Kong financial markets.
The equity incentives of listed companies will continue to be taxed separately from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, 2023, according to the Ministry of Finance and the State Taxation Administration on Monday.
