According to the Announcement of the State Administration of Taxation on Issuing the Measures for the Administration of Value-Added Tax and Consumption Tax on Export Goods and Labor Services (Announcement No. 24 of 2012 of the State Administration of Taxation), for the goods exported under consignment, except for the goods whose export tax refund has been cancelled by the state, the consignor can apply to the competent tax authority for tax refund.
The specific operation process is as follows: First, after the consignor declares the goods for export at the customs and makes sales treatment in finance, within the specified declaration period, it shall collect all the relevant vouchers and handle the application for value-added tax and consumption tax refund on export goods with the competent tax authority. The agent shall, from the date of declaring the goods for export at the customs to April 15th of the following year, submit the Certificate of Export Goods through an Agent and other relevant materials to the competent tax authority.
However, it should be noted that both the consignor and the agent need to accurately calculate the relevant business as required and ensure the authenticity and completeness of the declaration materials, otherwise it may affect the handling of tax refund.
