Tax authorities write AI consultation into this years service agenda

At the launch press conference for the 35th National Tax Publicity Month, Chinas tax authority said the 2026 Spring Breeze tax service campaign will keep digital transformation at the center of service upgrades. Officials said the tax system will continue optimizing the new e-tax bureau and mobile services, expand smart prefilling, improve filing self-check functions, and explore a tax AI large model with pilot intelligent consultation services. It will also extend online handling for export tax payment certificates to improve refund efficiency. For the tax informatization industry, the signal is that AI is moving beyond hotline Q and A into filing validation, document issuance, and broader workflow orchestration across tax services.
