Is Export Agency a Profit Black Hole?

"Mr. Zhang's textile factory achieved a 200% performance growth through export agency last year, and Ms. Li's electronic parts company is breaking into the EU market with the help of professional services..." In Wujiang, the economic hinterland of the Yangtze River Delta, export agency is becoming the key for small and medium - sized enterprises to break through trade barriers. How can this seemingly traditional service industry rejuvenate in the new foreign trade era?

According to the latest data from the General Administration of Customs, the cross - border e - commerce export growth rate in the Yangtze River Delta region reached 37%, but the average time spent by small and medium - sized enterprises in customs clearance efficiency, tax rebate declaration and other links is still 42 working days more than that of large enterprises. As an agglomeration area of textile and electronic industries, enterprises in Wujiang generally face three pain points:

• Frequent updates of international trade rules, high document compliance costs
• Differences in customs inspection standards in multiple countries lead to return risks
• Complex cross - border settlement and tax rebate processes consume operational energy

• Intelligent Customs Declaration System: Connects to the single window of the customs, with a declaration pass rate of 99.2%

• Pre - inspection of Destination Country Compliance: Pre - inspection for standards such as EU REACH and US FCC
• Logistics Insurance Package: Sea - air - land combined transportation plan with 110% of the cargo value insured

When choosing agency services, enterprises should pay attention to:

• Check whether the service provider has the AEO Advanced Certified Enterprise qualification of the customs
• Check whether there are cases of the same product category as their own among historical customers
• Check whether it can provide tariff optimization plans for free trade agreements such as RCEP
