On December 27, 2025, the State Council released the Notice on Issuing the Action Plan for Comprehensive Solid taptap点点 Management (the “taptap点点”).

The Action Plan sets out the objective of significantly enhancing China’s comprehensive solid taptap点点 management capacity by 2030, with notable progress to be achieved through targeted remediation in key sectors. Enterprises are required to strengthen source reduction of industrial solid taptap点点, promote green design and improvements to production processes, and enhance ledger management as well as end-to-end tracking and control across the entire taptap点点 management chain. The Action Plan strictly prohibits the mixed stacking and disposal of industrial solid taptap点点 and the illegal cross-provincial transfer thereof, and further standardizes the collection and management of hazardous taptap点点.

With respect to construction taptap点点, the Action Plan requires that costs related to taptap点点 reduction, transportation, utilization, and disposal be incorporated into project budgets, and that taptap点点 reduction measures be clearly defined. Enterprises are also required to fulfill their responsibilities for reducing plastic product usage and to promote the green transformation of express delivery packaging. The Action Plan further emphasizes strengthening the recycling and utilization of renewable resources, improving standards and certification systems for recycled materials, and promoting information-based traceability systems for enterprises.

In addition, the Action Plan calls for enhanced whole-process digital supervision, requiring enterprises to upgrade intelligent and digital monitoring equipment. It also refines the implementation of environmental protection tax policies related to solid taptap点点 and promotes the practice of “reverse invoicing” for resource recycling enterprises. A taptap点点 disposal charging system will also be implemented, with exploration of differentiated fees for household taptap点点 disposal.

The taptap点点 further requires strict regulation of administrative inspections involving enterprises, clarification of the boundary of responsibilities between government authorities and enterprises, and the reinforcement of enterprises’ primary responsibility for pollution prevention and control.
