Does Not Handling Import and Export Rights = Turning Customers Away?

"Mr. Zhang has been very troubled recently - the overseas order he finally negotiated was almost lost because the company didn't have import and export rights." Such scenes are played out every day in small and medium - sized enterprises. Import and export rights are like the "visa" for enterprises to go global. Without them, even the best products can only be trapped in the domestic market. This article will break down the whole process of the agency service for import and export rights for you and reveal how to use professional services to avoid those "invisible pitfalls".

Handling import and export rights involves 7 departments such as the customs, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, and the electronic port, and 12 basic materials need to be prepared, such as the duplicate of the business license and the bank account opening permit. Ms. Li once tried to handle it independently. As a result, because she missed filling in the "special industry identification" column of the record - filing form for foreign trade operators, she had to make 3 trips to the customs.

• Time Cost: It takes an average of 45 days to handle it independently, while professional institutions can compress it to 15 days.
• Hidden Threshold: There are technical barriers in links such as the application for the electronic port IC card.
• Subsequent Maintenance: There are continuous service demands such as foreign exchange verification and write - off, and the annual customs report.

The case database of Zhongshitong shows that among the 327 commissions handled in 2023, 86% had material flaws. The value of professional institutions is not only about running errands:

• Pre - review Diagnosis: Identify fatal problems such as the lack of the company's articles of association in advance.
• Process Packaging: Handle customs filing and inspection and quarantine registration in parallel.
• Risk Control: Avoid common rejection reasons such as "no goods import and export within the business scope".

Mr. Wang chose a low - cost agency last year. As a result, due to the failure to handle the qualification identification for export tax rebate simultaneously, he lost 17% of his profits. It is recommended to consider:

• Whether value - added services such as customs AEO certification guidance are provided
• Whether there are cases in the same industry (special categories such as food/chemicals) handled
• Whether professional documents such as compliance risk warning letters can be issued
