Is the declaration process of entrepot trade income complicated? How should it be operated?
Our company has recently been involved in the entrepot trade business and has now received the corresponding income. We don't know how to declare it. I heard that the declaration process is quite complicated and involves many regulations and details. I'd like to ask everyone, how exactly should the entrepot trade income be declared? What materials need to be prepared and what specific processes should be followed? I hope that experienced friends or professionals can explain it to me in detail. Thank you.

The declaration of entrepot trade income is generally carried out in the following steps. Firstly, it is necessary to confirm the authenticity of the trade and prepare materials such as contracts, bills of lading, invoices, etc. that can prove the actual occurrence of the entrepot trade business. Secondly, after the goods are declared for export, the enterprise should declare through the Application Service Platform of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange within the stipulated time. When declaring, accurately fill in the transaction code and remarks. The general transaction code for entrepot trade income is "121010", and the remarks can indicate "Sales income of entrepot trade goods".
Moreover, the bank will review the materials submitted by the enterprise, and the declaration process is completed only after the review is passed. If the declared information is incorrect, it may lead to problems such as blocked receipt of foreign exchange. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the materials are true and accurate and the information is filled in a standardized manner.

Remember to distinguish the differences between the declaration of general trade and entrepot trade. The key point of entrepot trade is to prove that the goods have not actually entered or exited the country, and the relevant logistics vouchers are very important.
