The amount of export tax rebates from Chongqing foreign trade agents is not fixed. It primarily depends on the product's rebate rate and the value-added tax invoice amount. Different products have different rebate rates, which are determined by the state based on industrial policies and other factors. These rates can be checked on the State Taxation Administration website. The calculation formula is: Export tax rebate amount = Value-added tax invoice amount ÷ (1 + Value-added tax rate) × Export rebate rate.
For example, if a product has a value-added tax rate of 13% and a rebate rate of 10%, with a value-added tax invoice amount of 1 million yuan, then the export tax rebate amount = 1,000,000 ÷ (1 + 13%) × 10% ≈ 88,500 yuan.
Additionally, policies may change, so businesses need to stay updated. When selecting a foreign trade agent, ensure they are professional and can accurately grasp policies to guarantee a smooth tax rebate process.

The amount of export tax rebates is related to the amount declared on the customs declaration form. Accurate declaration amounts are necessary to calculate the refundable tax according to regulations, so the customs declaration process must be taken seriously.

Besides the product's rebate rate, the company's own tax payment situation also affects the rebate amount. If there are issues with prior tax declarations, it may impact the final rebate.

The foreign exchange collection status of export goods also affects the rebate. Normal foreign exchange collection is required to process the rebate according to regulations. Issues with foreign exchange collection may delay or reduce the rebate amount.
