Xiongan New Area has invested heavily in artificial intelligence in the past two years. Companies in its AI park are typically R&D-heavy, asset-light and fast-moving, and tax questions follow. One local firm building an enterprise-grade agent operating system signed a large order soon after setting up, but as a new company its invoice quota was small and it could not issue invoices, so it applied for an increase. Tax officials came to the site, verified the project content and business substance, listed all required materials in one go, and closed the case the day the paperwork was complete. Whether R&D equipment qualifies for incentives is another common question; with heavy upfront equipment spending and tight cash flow, officials checked item by item and guided the firm to deduct the full amount in the current period under the one-off pre-tax deduction policy. What reassured companies most was a 31-page compilation of AI industry tax support policies that sets the rules out in advance. The firm's R&D spending now exceeds 30 percent of revenue.
