Definition
免收 is a formal verb meaning 'to waive' or 'to exempt from collecting (a fee, rent, fine, etc.)'. It usually appears before a noun denoting a charge or payment: 免收费用 'waive fees', 免收房租 'waive rent'. Unlike the English 'void', which often applies to checks or contracts, 免收 specifically targets the collection action — the entity simply does not charge. Use it in official, bureaucratic, or business contexts.
