In agent export tax rebates, the "points" generally do refer to the tax rebate rate. The export tax rebate rates for different products are different, which are set by the country based on various factors such as industrial policies, and the range is roughly between 0% and 17%.
To calculate the agent export tax rebate amount, the formula is: Export tax rebate amount = Tax - free purchase amount × Export tax rebate rate. For example, if your company exports a batch of products with a tax - free purchase amount of 1 million yuan and the export tax rebate rate of this product is 13%, then the export tax rebate amount is 1 million × 13% = 130,000 yuan.
The fees charged by the agent company are usually a certain percentage of the export goods amount. The specific percentage varies depending on the agent company, generally around 0.5% - 2%. When choosing an agent, in addition to paying attention to the tax rebate rate, the reputation and service quality of the agent company should also be examined.

Generally speaking, the calculation methods of export tax rebates for manufacturing enterprises and foreign trade enterprises are also a bit different. Foreign trade enterprises calculate according to the above - mentioned tax - free purchase amount, while manufacturing enterprises are involved in the calculation of exemption, credit and refund, which is relatively more complicated.

Before signing a contract with the agent, compare several companies. Consider not only the tax rebate rate but also aspects such as service efficiency. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if the tax rebate is delayed for a long time.
