Tax rebates can be obtained for export agency. Generally, the tax rebate entity is the principal. The process is as follows: First, the principal and the agent sign an export agency agreement. Second, after the goods are exported, the agent will obtain relevant export documents and hand them over to the principal. The principal, with these documents including the customs declaration form, export invoice, and certificate of goods exported through agency, shall handle the export tax rebate declaration to its competent tax authority within the specified time (usually before the VAT tax return period of April of the following year from the date of export).
It should be noted here that the principal needs to have the general taxpayer status and the exported goods should be subject to the VAT refund (exemption) policy. If the principal is a small-scale taxpayer, a tax exemption policy may be implemented. During the operation, it is necessary to ensure that all documents are complete and the information is accurate, otherwise it may affect the tax rebate progress or even prevent the tax rebate.
