The export agent should be eligible for tax refunds. The tax refunds for export agents are mainly to encourage export trade and reduce the costs of export enterprises. For the consignor and the agent, generally, the consignor applies for the tax refund and the agent assists in handling the relevant procedures.
The specific process is as follows: First, the consignor should prepare relevant export declarations, invoices, contracts and other documents and hand them over to the agent; the agent will sort out these documents, enter them into the tax refund declaration system, and submit the tax refund application to the tax authorities; after the tax authorities approve it, the tax refund amount will be transferred to the account designated by the consignor.
If there is no tax refund, it may be due to incomplete documents, such as incorrect information on the declaration form, invoices not in compliance with the regulations, etc., or it may be that the goods themselves do not meet the tax refund policies, such as products restricted for export by some countries. In short, if the operation is carried out according to the prescribed process, the export agent can get the tax refund smoothly.

The key to the tax refund of the export agent depends on how the two parties' contract stipulates. Some agents will promise to handle the tax refund for the enterprise in order to attract business. But the actual operation still needs to follow the formal process, and the enterprise itself should also pay attention to the preparation of documents.
