For foreign exchange declaration of entrepot trade, first ensure trade authenticity and retain complete trade documents like contracts, bills of lading, and invoices. When receiving foreign payments, the declarant should fill out the foreign income declaration form, select transaction code "122010 Entrepot Trade" in the "Transaction Code" field, and clearly note "Entrepot Trade Income" in "Transaction Remarks". For outward payments, fill the foreign remittance application with the same "122010 Entrepot Trade" code and note "Entrepot Trade Payment". Banks may require trade background documents for review. For special cases like long intervals between goods flow and payment flow, communicate with banks in advance. Companies must strictly follow regulations to avoid future issues.
In summary, clear/accurate declarations and complete documentation are key for entrepot trade foreign exchange declaration.
