# China A-share trading taxes
**Two taxes decide what an A-share round trip costs, and a flat symmetric basis-point model can
express neither of them. One is charged to the seller only and halved in the middle of any sample
that spans 2023-08-28. The other charges you for holding briefly.**
These are **modelling assumptions for a backtest, not tax advice**, and everything here is for an
**individual resident investor**. Institutions, funds, QFII/RQFII and Stock Connect investors are
treated differently and none of that is in this file. Confirm current law with a qualified
professional before relying on any of it.
✅ Measured comes from `scripts/ashare_taxes.py` — numpy + pandas, seed 20260909, one seeded
2021→2025 path that deliberately spans the rate cut, **under 1 s**. ✅ source-verified material
was read on **2026-09-09** at 国家税务总局 (`fgk.chinatax.gov.cn`, `www.chinatax.gov.cn`) and
财政部 (`www.mof.gov.cn`).
## 1. ✅ source-verified — stamp duty is one-sided, and it moved
**中华人民共和国印花税法, Article 3**, in force from **2022-07-01**, verbatim:
> 本法所称证券交易,是指转让在依法设立的证券交易所、国务院批准的其他全国性证券交易场所交易的股票和
> 以股票为基础的存托凭证。**证券交易印花税对证券交易的出让方征收,不对受让方征收。**
*Securities transaction stamp duty is levied on the transferor, and not on the transferee.* The
attached 印花税税目税率表 sets the rate at **千分之一 (0.1%) of 成交金额**, and Article 5 makes the
transaction amount the tax base.
**财政部 税务总局公告2023年第39号《关于减半征收证券交易印花税的公告》**, issued 2023-08-27,
verbatim: *"为活跃资本市场、提振投资者信心,**自2023年8月28日起,证券交易印花税实施减半征收**。"*
