How to change the “area of jurisdiction” in the accountant information sheet?

Answer: 1. Under the localization principle of information collection for accountants in Shanghai, the information of accountants employed by enterprises or other organizations shall be collected and registered by the competent financial authority at the place where the employers register taxation. When any change occurs to the tax registration location of their employer, accountants may not change the "area of jurisdiction" in the account’s information sheet. In this case, registration transfer must be handled before any change is made to accountant information.

2. Currently, for the purpose of registration transfer within Shanghai, accountants need to bring relevant documents (generally their valid identification document, employer's tax registration certificate or three-in-one business license, and their proof of employment, etc.) to the designated location where the competent local financial authority handles such affairs on site. We apologize if there is any inconvenience.

For specific matters concerning registration transfer, please consult the competent local financial authority.
