The reporter learned that Gazelle Enterprise has a fast growth rate, strong innovation ability, new professional fields, and great development potential, and is an indispensable and important force in high-quality development. In order to better serve the development of gazelle enterprises, the Qingdao Qianwan Bonded Port Tax Bureau has registered gazelle enterprises and equipped them with exclusive "tax managers". They regularly understand the business situation of the enterprise through various online and offline channels, inquire about needs, answer difficulties, listen to opinions, and customize "policy packages" and "risk packages" to help them enjoy tax benefits to the fullest extent possible, safeguarding the growth of the enterprise.
"The R&D concept of 'technology driven leadership' runs through the entire process of enterprise product development. The company has completed and implemented more than ten high-tech projects through technological innovation. Among them, the KP262 fully hydraulic tire roller and other products, which are independently developed and have all intellectual property rights, have passed expert level appraisal, and the technology has reached the international advanced level. There are also ten products that have reached the domestic leading level." Kong Ai, the financial manager of Qingdao Kotai Heavy Industry Machinery Co., Ltd., said, "This cannot be separated from the R&D and technical team's hard work, and it is also thanks to tax incentives that inject us with innovative R&D funds. This year, we have pre enjoyed 4.0362 million yuan of R&D expenses plus deductions, and received 8.5839 million yuan of export tax refunds." This further increases confidence in future research and development innovation
Qingdao Lafite Intelligent Equipment Technology Co., Ltd. was also selected as a gazelle enterprise in Shandong Province this year.

It has obtained more than 50 product patents and participated in the formulation of a national standard "General Technical Requirements for Electric Doors and Windows". "Our company's research and development achievements can constantly innovate, which cannot be separated from the consistent service and support of the tax department. Since the beginning of this year, we have accumulated nearly 10 million yuan of R&D expense deduction, which is an important guarantee for the annual increase in enterprise R&D investment." Guo Shuai, the financial manager of the company, introduced, "At the same time, we vigorously develop our export business, and our products are popular in countries and regions such as Europe, America, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. Thanks to the tax department's export tax refund service measures of 'reporting, reviewing, and quickly refunding', we have quickly enjoyed an export tax refund of 122000 yuan."
Qingdao Keraite Transmission Technology Co., Ltd., established in 2008, was selected as a gazelle enterprise in Shandong Province in 2022. Over the past year, the enterprise has firmly embarked on the path of independent innovation and actively carried out research and development of new agricultural machinery products such as hydraulic four-wheel drive rear axle, transfer box, and third gear box. Currently, it has entered the trial stage. "The breakthrough of new technologies requires a large amount of research and development investment. A large part of the tax and fee benefits enjoyed by enterprises are used for product research and development, alleviating the cash pressure on enterprises and reducing investment costs." Huang Jianwei, the company's financial manager, introduced that from January to November this year, enterprises have accumulated an additional deduction of 91000 yuan from advanced manufacturing value-added tax. Under the nourishment of tax benefits and active water, enterprises continue to increase their innovation efforts, resulting in a dual increase in the content of "gold" and "new" in their products.
