In the export agency tax rebate business, there are usually two situations for the remittance recipient. One is that the principal directly receives the remittance from foreign customers. This way allows the principal to directly control the funds, but the agency company may have some inconvenience in handling tax rebates and other procedures as it cannot directly confirm the fund situation. The other is that the export agency company receives the remittance. If the agency company receives it, generally, after deducting relevant fees such as agency fees, it will transfer the remaining amount to the principal in a timely manner. For example, if the agency company receives a remittance of $1 million, after deducting $30,000 in agency fees and other expenses, it will transfer $970,000 to the principal. In this way, the agency company can easily integrate the capital flow, logistics, and information flow to handle tax rebates and other businesses. However, the principal should choose a regular and reputable agency company like Zhongshitong to avoid capital risks. At the same time, both parties need to clarify relevant details such as capital flow in the contract to protect the rights and interests of both parties.

Generally, if the agency company collects the remittance on behalf, there will be a special financial process to ensure the safe flow of funds. The time of fund arrival and other details should be clearly stated in the contract.

I think it's more reassuring for the principal to receive the remittance directly, as it can keep track of the fund dynamics in real time, but it's a bit more troublesome to coordinate the tax rebate procedures with the agency company.
