Kailing Technology Reverse Invoicing Solution: Policy Interpretation and Practical Guide, Helping Enterprises Achieve Compliance and Cost Reduction

I. Policy Dividends: How Does Reverse Invoicing Activate the Renewable Resource Industry?

On April 29, 2024, the State Taxation Administration issued the "Announcement on Matters Concerning Resource Recycling Enterprises' "Reverse Invoicing" to Individuals Selling Scrapped Products" (No. 5 of 2024), officially implementing the "reverse invoicing" policy in the resource recycling industry, aiming to solve the long-standing pain point of "missing source invoices" in the industry and help implement the large-scale equipment renewal and consumer goods trade-in actions. As of the end of June 2025, 13,300 resource recycling enterprises nationwide had issued invoices to 1.67 million individuals through this policy, amounting to 515.2 billion yuan, with policy benefits continuing to be released.

II. Practical pain points: the three major challenges for enterprises implementing reverse invoicing

Although the policy benefits are significant, enterprises still face numerous obstacles in practice:

1. Difficult individual management: retail sellers resist invoicing, information collection risks, and lack of early warning for sales exceeding 5 million

2. Business-finance-tax fragmentation: weighbridge data/order systems are separated from the invoicing module, resulting in low manual processing efficiency

3. Weak evidence chain: Lack of electronic evidence systems such as purchase contracts, payment records, and weighbridge tickets, resulting in high audit risk
