In the business of export tax rebate through an agent, the principal of receiving remittance is usually determined through negotiation between the entrusting party and the agent. Generally, there are two situations. One is that the agent receives the remittance. After receiving the payment from foreign customers, the agent deducts relevant fees such as agency fees and then pays the remaining amount to the entrusting party. In this way, the agent needs to have a good reputation and capital management ability to ensure the timely and accurate payment of funds. The general operational process is that foreign customers remit the payment to the account designated by the agent. After the agent verifies that the payment is correct, it transfers the amount to the entrusting party through bank transfer or other means after deducting fees according to the agreement. The other situation is that the entrusting party directly receives the remittance, and the agent assists in handling relevant procedures. In this way, the entrusting party has stronger control over the funds. However, in either case, relevant details about receiving remittance should be clearly stated in the agency agreement to protect the rights and interests of both parties and reduce capital risks.
