There are two common abbreviations for export agency methods. One is "dual-heading", and the other is "single-heading". "Dual-heading" means that on the customs declaration form, the name of the export agency company is filled in the operating unit, and the name of the consignor is filled in the shipping unit. In this way, the special VAT invoice is issued by the consignor to the agency company, and then the agency company handles the tax refund. For the consignor, a certain degree of autonomy can be retained.
"Single-heading" means that both the operating unit and the shipping unit on the customs declaration form are filled with the name of the export agency company. The tax refund is handled by the agency company. This method is relatively simple, and the process is dominated by the agency company, making it more worry-free for the consignor. Understanding these abbreviations will help you communicate with export agency companies and clarify the cooperation model. For example, Zhongshitong can select the corresponding agency method according to your needs for operational autonomy, process convenience, etc.
