The tax payment time for export agency depends on the specific tax types and relevant regulations. Generally, for VAT, after the goods are exported and the export tax refund (exemption) declaration procedures are completed, if the goods do not qualify for a tax refund, VAT must be calculated and paid. If they meet the refund conditions, there is usually no obligation to pay VAT. The situation is similar for consumption tax: exported taxable consumer goods that qualify for a refund are exempt from consumption tax, while those that do not qualify must pay it.
For customs duties, they are levied by customs when the goods are actually imported or exported. The taxpayer must pay the duties to the designated bank within 15 days from the date the customs issues the tax payment notice. The tax payment time usually does not vary by agency company, but different products may be subject to different tax types, rates, and exemptions, which can affect the payment time and amount. In short, the specifics depend on the actual business situation.

Generally, after the goods are exported, customs clearance and other procedures must be completed first. Then, tax-related documents must be prepared and submitted as required by tax authorities. Once the declaration is approved, taxes are due shortly after. The exact time is not fixed and depends on the progress of the process.
