Enterprises of category BC can conduct entrepot trade, but compared with enterprises of category A, there will be more supervision and restrictions. First, when enterprises of category BC handle entrepot trade, banks may strengthen their reviews. For example, the review of the authenticity of the trade will be more stringent, and enterprises need to provide complete and detailed trade contracts, transport documents, invoices and other materials to prove the authenticity of the business.
Secondly, in terms of foreign exchange receipt and payment, enterprises of category BC may not be able to operate as normally as enterprises of category A. For example, they may need to go through relevant procedures with the foreign exchange administration first, or the bank cannot directly handle foreign exchange settlement for the enterprise after receiving foreign exchange, but needs to wait for the approval of the foreign exchange administration.
In addition, the customs also has stricter supervision over enterprises of category BC, and there may be more detailed requirements in the declaration and inspection of goods. Therefore, when enterprises of category BC handle entrepot trade, they must understand and prepare all kinds of materials in advance and communicate well with banks, customs and other departments.
