Published: 2026-03-24 17:04

Every settlement season, the finance department of a publishing house always faces a "sweet trouble." Behind the mountain of manuscript fee and royalty payment orders are hundreds or thousands of authors waiting for settlement. However, the process often gets stuck at the same step: "Teacher, have you issued your invoice?"... Repeated communication with authors and long waits consume a great deal of energy from editors and finance staff. How individual authors can issue invoices conveniently and compliantly has become a key link affecting a publishing house's capital flow and author relationships.

In the past, the answer to this question often pointed to long lines at offline tax bureaus, complex forms, and authors' resistance caused by fear of trouble. But now, digital solutions are completely changing this scenario. Based on the compliance requirements of the national VAT law and tax authorities' promotion of online invoicing for natural persons, publishers can absolutely have a more elegant and efficient response strategy.


I. Farewell to the "urge-wait" model, embrace the new "online-automatic" process

Imagine this scene: after the manuscript fee settlement process is initiated, the author receives a reminder containing an exclusive link on their phone. They do not need to download an additional APP; they only need to click the link and complete identity authentication through facial recognition, and the system will automatically bring up the manuscript fee amount for this settlement and the publisher's header information. After the author confirms, the system automatically calculates the tax payable and guides online payment completion. Moments later, a VAT ordinary electronic invoice directly issued by the tax bureau with a complete invoice seal will be synchronously pushed to the publisher's designated email or financial system. The whole process takes only a few minutes, andAnytime, anywhereOperable, authors are no longer limited by time and location.

This is precisely the specific application of Kailing Technology’s invoice issuance for individuals solution in the publishing industry, seamlessly connecting manuscript fee and royalty settlement scenarios to the tax bureau’s officially recognized online issuance channel.

1. Full-process online, efficiency multiplied:The entire process from triggering invoicing to receiving the invoice is completed online. Finance staff no longer need to guide authors one by one, nor do they have to deal with the tedious work of manually entering invoice information.

2. "Four flows consistency" to solidify the compliance foundation:The solution automatically links contractsflow, business flowStructured association and archiving of fund flow and invoice flow. This builds a complete and traceable evidence chain for each manuscript fee expense, fully meeting the China Golden Tax Phase IV verification requirements for business authenticity and fundamentally eliminating tax risks caused by non-compliant invoices.

3. Optimize author experience and enhance cooperation stickiness:Providing authors with a minimalist invoicing experience essentially enhances the publisher's professional service image. Authors no longer get distracted by the trivial matter of "issuing an invoice" and can focus more on creation itself, which helps establish a more stable and pleasant long-term cooperative relationship.

Precise matching of invoicing categories, saying goodbye to gray areas:AtGoods/ServicesWithin the scope of invoice issuance for individuals, authors' remuneration and royalty income can be precisely classified under the relevant subcategories, ensuring that the business substance, contract terms, and invoice content are fully consistent, with compliance beyond doubt.
