News on May 30: Recently, an Apple user sued Apple for abusing its market dominance, but ultimately lost the case.

After the verdict was issued, the consumer said that he would continue to appeal and called on Chinese consumers to continue to oppose this unfair charging rule.

In February 2021, an Apple user took Apple to court for abusing its market dominance.

Just recently, the verdict of this case has been released. The Apple user ultimately lost the case, but the judgment showed that the court determined that Apple had a dominant market position. This is China’s first “Apple tax” antitrust case.

It is reported that Apple collects 40 billion in apple taxes in China a year, and this commission rate is the highest standard in the world.

Data shows that the Chinese market is currently the only country among Apple’s top three revenue sources that does not have any specific “Apple tax” preferential rates.

Specifically, Apple’s tax rate for China’s “standard enterprises” is 30%, while the tax rate for small enterprises is 15%.

For comparison, the two data after tax rate adjustment in the United States are 27% and 12%, the EU is 17% and 10%, and South Korea is 26% and 11%, all lower than China's charging standards .

From the EU to the US market, the controversy caused by the "Apple tax" has never stopped. Around 2021, in addition to the United States, antitrust investigations into Apple in other regions around the world also forced the "Apple tax" to be relaxed.
