In the business of export agency tax refund, the subject of receiving remittance mainly depends on the negotiation between the two parties and the specific business model. Usually, there are two situations: One is that the entrusting party receives the remittance directly. In this case, the entrusting party directly deals with the payment from foreign customers and has a strong control over the capital flow, but it needs to have the corresponding foreign exchange settlement ability and qualifications by itself. The other is that the export agency company receives the remittance. After receiving the remittance on behalf of others, the export agency company will transfer the payment to the entrusting party according to the agreement. This method can make use of the foreign exchange handling experience and resources of the agency company to simplify the operation of the entrusting party. When choosing which method to use, the conditions of the entrusting party itself and the cooperation agreement with the agency company should be considered. If the entrusting party is familiar with foreign exchange business and has the ability to handle it, direct receipt of payment is more conducive to capital control; if the entrusting party lacks relevant experience, it is more convenient for the agency company to receive the remittance and transfer the payment. In either case, the key points such as the process of receiving remittance, time nodes, and handling fees should be clearly defined in the cooperation agreement to avoid subsequent disputes.
In short, various factors should be comprehensively weighed to ensure the safety and efficiency of receiving remittance.

Generally speaking, if the entrusting party has a foreign exchange account and is proficient in operation, it is better for it to receive the remittance by itself, so that it can grasp the capital dynamics in real time. But if it is not familiar with the process of receiving foreign exchange, it is better to let the agency company receive the foreign exchange. They will handle it more professionally and can also help deal with some complicated situations. However, attention should be paid to the timeliness of the transfer of funds.

Usually, the method of receiving remittance will be agreed upon in the agency contract. If the agency company receives the remittance on behalf of others, it is necessary to ensure that it has a good reputation and a standardized financial process, otherwise there may be capital risks.

If the volume of export business is large and frequent, it will be more convenient for the entrusting party to receive the remittance by itself, and it can save costs in the long run.

But if the agency company receives the remittance, it can make use of its professional advantages to solve foreign exchange problems. The key is to choose a good agency company.

If the entrusting party wants to maintain close capital transactions with foreign customers directly, it can receive the remittance by itself. If it hopes for one-stop service and lets the agency company receive the remittance and complete the subsequent tax refund process, it is also acceptable. It mainly depends on the needs of the enterprise.

Some agency companies will charge a certain handling fee for receiving remittance. The entrusting party should ask about the fee standard in advance. If it receives the remittance by itself, it should pay attention to the fluctuation of exchange rates and choose the appropriate time to settle foreign exchange.

In actual operation, if foreign customers have special requirements for the payee, the subject of receiving remittance should be selected according to the customer's requirements, and at the same time, it should be combined with one's own situation to ensure the smooth progress of receiving remittance.

No matter who receives the remittance, the transparency of capital flow should be ensured. If the agency company receives the remittance on behalf of others, it should promptly inform the entrusting party of the arrival of funds and the progress of handling. If the entrusting party receives the foreign exchange by itself, it should also do a good job in information docking with the agency company.

If the entrusting party has a plan to expand overseas markets, receiving the remittance by itself will help accumulate experience in foreign exchange transactions. If it only wants to focus on production, letting the agency company receive the remittance can save the enterprise's worry and allow it to focus on its core business.
