In the business of export on behalf of others, generally, the tax levy procedures for export on behalf of others are handled by the agent. This is because the agent declares exports in its own name, directly interfaces with the business processes of relevant departments such as the customs, and is relatively more familiar with the specific operations of export tax levy. The agent will be responsible for reporting the relevant information of the exported goods to the tax authorities, calculating the taxes to be paid, and completing a series of procedures such as tax payment.
However, the consignor is not completely out of it. The consignor needs to provide the detailed information of the goods to the agent in a timely and accurate manner, including the types, quantities, and values of the goods, to ensure that the agent can handle the procedures smoothly. Meanwhile, before the two parties cooperate, they should clarify issues such as responsibilities and cost bearing to avoid subsequent disputes. During the whole process, the two parties should maintain close communication and jointly complete the relevant matters of the tax levy for export on behalf of others.
