    "The State Administration of Taxation intends to
    coatings
    industry upstream and downstream into the scope of consumption tax collection." In this regard, the toy industry believes that if the scope of the consumption tax will be levied to toy enterprises to expand, will depress the development of the domestic toy industry. Recently, Guangdong Inspection and Quarantine Technology Center Toy Baby Products Laboratory held a toy paint VOC testing seminar, invited the Guangdong Toy Association, as well as Zhentai, Sunrise, Ofei, Xinghui and other well-known toy enterprises and the production of toy paint business representatives gathered to discuss the possible impact of this measure, to find effective response methods.
    voC (a volatile organic compound) emissions in the coatings industry are an important source of atmospheric pollutants such as PM2.5. In January this year, the Ministry of Finance, the State Administration of Taxation, the State Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and other jointly issued the "Notice on the collection of consumption tax on battery coatings", aimed at increasing the control of VOC content in coatings, and further prevention and control of air pollution. The tax exemption limit set out in the Notice is 420 g/L, which is based on the relevant U.S. standards.
    in this meeting, many toy and toy paint manufacturers have expressed the difficulty of achieving this collection standard. Some toy paint manufacturers pointed out that China's existing mandatory national standards for toy coatings for solvent-based coatings VOC limit of 720 g / liter, if reduced to 420 g / L, the formula needs to be fully adjusted, very difficult. Even if the requirements are met, low solvent content can lead to too much paint viscosity, toy companies are basically unable to apply. Some toy manufacturers also said that toy materials complex and diverse, rich color requirements, and taking into account the children's use of toys in the process of biting, sucking and other behavior, one of the most important requirements for toy paint is strong adhesion, can not easily fall off, otherwise easy to be swallowed by children, resulting in heavy metals and other chemical hazards. Now voC content of solvent-based coatings use more than 99%,
    water-based
    is still difficult to replace.
    as things stand, the paint consumption tax has not yet been formally determined to be levied on the downstream toy industry, but previous reports have attracted the attention of relevant enterprises. The representative of Zhentai Group pointed out, "Toy paint production enterprises to toy manufacturers are usually crude oil, toy enterprises buy paint crude oil will be based on the product color scheme, performance requirements of their own formulation of different formulations of products used in toys, essentially crude oil is not finished paint, but belongs to the raw materials of toy coatings." Therefore, there should be no tax on the consumption of paint on play enterprises. The
    , while representatives of Xinghui Interactive Entertainment Co., Ltd., argued that the consumption tax increased the burden on toy companies and was particularly detrimental to toy exports. As a toy paint downstream toy production enterprises, especially export-oriented enterprises, profits are not high, such as the collection of consumption tax, enterprise costs increase, will consider setting up factories overseas. "The representative of Guangdong Toy Association also believes that the imposition of a consumption tax on toy enterprises will damp the development of the toy industry, and it is not appropriate to extend the consumption tax to downstream toy enterprises in toy coatings.
    seminar, toy paint and toy manufacturers on the collection of paint consumption tax made in-depth exchanges, and decided to recommend to the relevant departments: First, based on toy paint as raw materials for industrial production, not for the final consumption of ordinary consumers, it is recommended to exempt toys with paint consumption tax; It is suggested that according to the current process level of the product according to different VOC level classification levy, or for toys with paint consumption tax collection starting point according to GB24613-2009 "toy paint in the limit of harmful substances" voC limit 720g/L levy;
