To establish an import and export agency enterprise, first, there must be a legal business license of an enterprise legal person, and the business scope should include "goods import and export" or "technology import and export" business. Second, the record-filing registration of foreign trade operators needs to be completed, which can be handled online through the unified platform of the business systems of the Ministry of Commerce. Customs registration is also required to obtain the registration certificate of the customs declaration unit, which enables the enterprise to have the qualification for customs declaration.
In addition, the record-filing of self-declaration inspection enterprises is also essential. If the inspection and quarantine business is involved, the enterprise needs to file with the local entry-exit inspection and quarantine bureau. In terms of taxation, the identification of export tax rebate needs to be handled to enjoy the export tax rebate policy. Moreover, the enterprise had better have professional personnel who are familiar with the import and export business processes, international trade rules, and relevant laws and regulations. Although there are no particularly strict requirements for the venue, a fixed office space is needed to carry out the business.
