New era of digital freight: Kailing Technology uses a compliant invoice issuance solution for individuals to solidify the foundation of matchmaking transactions in the freight industry

Digital freight is currently in a dual opportunity period of policy empowerment and industry transformation. From national to local levels, policies such as electronic waybill promotion and logistics cost reduction and quality improvement are being intensively implemented. Combined with the full implementation of China Golden Tax Phase IV and the implementation of the Provisions on the Reporting of Tax-Related Information by Internet Platform Enterprises, tax compliance has become the lifeline for the survival and development of digital freight platforms. Against this background, the compliant invoice issuance for individuals solution launched by Kailing Technology precisely solves the invoicing pain points in freight matching transactions and lays a solid compliance foundation for high-quality industry development.

I. Dual Drivers of Policy and Regulation Make Compliant Transformation Urgent

Since 2025, dual efforts at the regulatory level have forced freight matchmaking transactions toward compliance:

• Policy Guidance for Standardization: The Ministry of Transport, together with the State Taxation Administration, promotes the pilot work of issuing special VAT invoices on behalf of online platform road freight transport enterprises, clarifying that pilot enterprises may issue special invoices on behalf of eligible small-scale freight taxpayers, requiring invoice information to match transport trajectories,Transaction records etc. remain consistent; meanwhile, the "Transportation and Logistics Cost Reduction and Efficiency Improvement Action Plan" emphasizes promoting full coverage of electronic invoices in the logistics field, regulating the freight invoice issuance process from the policy level, and clarifying the core requirements for compliant invoices. Chongqing has introduced "single document system" digital bill of lading measures for the New Western Land-Sea Corridor, further strengthening the core voucher status of compliant invoices in settlement and financing, jointly building a digital freight invoice compliance management framework.

• Tighter Regulatory Enforcement: China Golden Tax Phase IV Enables Full-Chain Invoice Tracking and Precise Audits of No-Invoice Expenditures and Fraudulent Invoices; the Yunshidi Platform Issued Fraudulent Invoices31Typical cases such as 100 million yuan warn the industry that the cost of violations is surging. At the same time, the mandatory reporting system for platform tax-related information has been implemented, and regulation is shifting from "post-event audit" to "pre-event prevention + in-process supervision."

II. Three major pain points of matched transactions constrain industry development

The freight matching model inherently has the characteristics of "scattered people, miscellaneous orders, and broken chains," compounded by tightening regulatory policies, forming threefold compliance pain points at the enterprise, driver, and industry levels, severely constraining transaction efficiency and industry credibility.

• Enterprise Side：They face the dilemma of "difficult invoice acquisition, high risk control costs and heavy verification pressure." When freight enterprises cooperate with a large number of individual natural-person drivers, because drivers cannot issue VAT invoices themselves, the traditional invoice issuance process is cumbersome and leads to low cooperation. Enterprises often face pre-tax deduction risks due to incomplete invoice chains, and some even risk obtaining false invoices through intermediaries, repeating illegal mistakes. At the same time, drivers are scattered and highly mobile, so enterprises easily miss information when collecting identity information and business vouchers, and find it difficult to quickly provide a complete evidence chain of business authenticity during tax audits.

• Driver side：Then they are trapped by the problems of "complicated operating procedures, low willingness to cooperate, and weak tax awareness." Traditional invoice issuance for individuals requires multiple steps such as real-name authentication, cross-platform face scanning, and filling in complex information; some drivers do not know how to operate it, and enterprises must spend a great deal of effort guiding them. The cross-platform jump operation for invoice issuance on the electronic tax bureau further reduces drivers' willingness to issue invoices proactively, and most drivers are unfamiliar with policies such as individual income tax filing and annual comprehensive income reconciliation, easily leading to leftover tax issues.

• IndustryClient：Non-compliant invoicing issues lead to a weak trust foundation for matchmaking transactions. Cargo owner enterprises dare not cooperate with confidence due to invoice risks, drivers are unwilling to participate in formal transactions due to cumbersome operations, and some platforms tolerate non-compliant operations to compete for business, forming a vicious cycle of "bad money driving out good money," which runs counter to the national policy goal of promoting cost reduction, quality improvement, and efficiency enhancement in logistics.

III. Kailing Technology's solution: full-chain digitalization to solve compliance challenges

In response to the core industry pain points, Kailing Technology, with "source risk control, process efficiency improvement, and strong data support" as the core, has built a full-chain digital compliance solution covering the four-flow integration of "business-capital-invoice-data," providing the optimal path for compliant invoicing in freight matchmaking transactions.

• Build a centralized digital management platform to solidify a compliance closed loop：The centralized platform built by Kailing Technology brings dispersed individual drivers into a unified management system, with the "unique digital waybill" as the core carrier. When an enterprise creates a transport task, a dedicated waybill is automatically generated; after a driver accepts it, business data such as GPS driving trajectory, ETC toll records, and fuel payment vouchers are automatically linked, forming a tamper-proof data chain that eliminates fabricated business and data fraud from the source. The platform has a daily throughput of 520,000 orders, meeting the needs of large-scale matching business. This is highly consistent with the policy direction of the "one-order system" digital bill of lading, achieving trusted sharing of transaction data and full-process traceability.

• Optimize operating procedures and improve driver cooperation：The solution innovatively integrates electronic tax bureau functions into the freight APP. Drivers can complete face-scan authentication without downloading or switching to other applications, greatly simplifying operation steps. It also enables intelligent filling of invoicing information, with the receiving party's fixed information pre-entered. Drivers only need to supplement core content such as cargo details, and ID cards and order vouchers can be uploaded with one click, improving invoicing efficiency by over 80%. In addition, the platform provides full-process operation guidance, solving the pain points of drivers not knowing how to operate or being unwilling to cooperate.

• Intelligent risk control verification, blocking compliance risks：The intelligent risk control system on the platform conducts real-time "four flows in one" verification: it verifies the consistency between GPS trajectories and waybill routes, the match between fund payments and business scenarios, the reasonableness of cost logic, and the accuracy of invoice information. Once an anomaly is found, it immediately issues an automatic warning and blocks the invoicing process. This mechanism effectively avoids loopholes such as "forged trajectories" exposed in the "Yunshidi" case, ensuring that every invoice is supported by real business.

• Covers the full lifecycle, eliminating compliance blind spots：The solution provides multiple payment methods, supporting bank batch withholding, UnionPay payment, QR code payment, etc., adapting to different enterprise management needs; realizes convenient red-letter reversal and tax refunds. After a driver initiates an application, the invoice amount is refunded via the original route within T+1 day, ensuring fund security; clarifies individual income tax filing requirements, guides drivers to complete quarterly filing and annual comprehensive income reconciliation, automatically adapts to tax incentive policies, and reduces drivers' tax burden. At the same time, the platform generates a standardized "business authenticity evidence package," including digital waybills, track vouchers, and payment records, which enterprises can quickly export to respond to tax inspections.

IV. Solidify the transaction foundation and empower high-quality industry development

• For enterprises:Solve the challenge of obtaining compliant invoices, reduce operating costs by over 40%, calmly respond to inspections through standardized evidence packages, and avoid tax risks. After a large freight enterprise adopted it, the input VAT invoice acquisition ratio increased significantly from less than 5%.

• For drivers:Simplify operations and clarify tax guidance, increase willingness and experience for invoicing, safeguard income rights, and promote integration into the formal transaction system.

• For the industry:Reshape the trust foundation of matchmaking transactions and promote a virtuous cycle; improve the invoice chain and help extend services such as settlement and financing, aligning with the national policy goals of reducing logistics costs and improving quality.

In the new era of digital freight, compliance is the lifeline and efficiency is competitiveness. Through its innovative solutions, Kailing Technology effectively bridges the gap between flexible-employment individual transport capacity and standardized tax management, clearing a major obstacle on the path to transaction compliance for freight matching platforms and injecting solid underlying momentum into the healthy, orderly, and high-quality development of the entire industry. As the policy environment continues to become clearer and digital technology continues to penetrate,Just like Kailing TechnologyA solution focusing on basic services and promoting compliance and efficiency will surely become an important supporting force for driving the digital transformation and upgrading of China's logistics industry.
