Official Interpretation of the 9810 Policy: Two Scenarios, Six Models; Starting in August, One Item Sold Equals One Item Verified
Published: July 28, 2026
On June 22, the Shenzhen Bureau of Commerce, in collaboration with Amazon, provided a comprehensive interpretation of the 9810 policy (cross-border e-commerce export to overseas warehouses). This article highlights six key points to help sellers quickly identify the compliance path that best suits their needs.
I. Who is the 9810 suitable for?
Officials have clarified that the 9810 is primarily intended forSmall and Medium-Sized Sellers Stocking Overseas Warehouses, 1–20 stores.
- Sellers Eligible for a Tax Refund: It is recommended to limit the number of stores to between 1 and 20;
- Sellers who do not offer tax refunds (issue only general invoices): There is no limit on the number of stores; small and medium-sized sellers do not even need to establish a Hong Kong company to legally consolidate their profits into a Hong Kong company and repatriate them to the mainland.
Core Objective: Compliant Repatriation of Profits.
II. Two Scenarios, Six Modes
Scenario 1: Tax Refunds on Special Invoices (Three Models)

Applicable Scenarios
Key requirements
Model 1
Store-Operated
2–3 stores—the simplest to manage
The store/company handles procurement, customs clearance, and tax refunds on its own; both CIF and FOB declaration methods are accepted.
Model 2
Supply Chain Centralized Procurement for Export
5–20 stores
The supply chain company handles centralized procurement and unified customs clearance.Key: The entity that purchases the goods must be the same as the one that exports them, and the entity that sells the goods must be the same as the one that claims the tax refund; these four parties must be consistent. The store and the supply chain company must have an affiliated relationship (either through equity ownership or family ties); otherwise, the regulatory authorities will not recognize it.
Model 3
Full-Service Export Agency
Limited system capabilities; want to cut corners
Entrust a supply chain company to handle the entire customs clearance and tax refund process on your behalf
Scenario 2: No Tax Refund for Standard Tickets (Three Models)

Applicable Scenarios
specificities
Model 4
Supply Chain Centralized Procurement for Export
Similar to Model 2
No tax refunds for Cape tickets only; simplified process; no limit on the number of stores
Model 5
Full-Service Export Agency
The Top Choice for Small Sellers
Entrust an officially recognized service provider with a one-stop service; only general invoices will be issued.
Pattern 6
Group Purchase and Export Agency Services
Small and medium-sized sellers with low shipment volumes
Multiple sellers combine their shipments onto a single customs declaration form, which reduces costs and lowers the likelihood of inspection.
III. Declared Price: Be truthful and use the midpoint value
Adopt uniformlyFOB Declaration, Report the actual amount received accurately:
- The bid is too low: Trigger a tax risk alert;
- The price is too high: Difficulties with U.S. customs clearance;
- Recommended Range: For apparel, the commission is 30–35 yuan on every 100 yuan in sales; for electronics, it’s around 40 yuan.
IV. Method of Receiving Payments: No need to change your Amazon payment account
Funds can be recovered directly into domestic corporate accounts through third-party payment providers, with flexible options available:
– Consolidated into the Hong Kong company and then transferred back to the mainland;
– Or recall them directly within the country.
There is no need to change your current payment collection procedures.
V. The 9810 Tax Refund Assistance System Will Soon Be Launched
The government is developing the 9810 Tax Refund Assistance System,Expected to launch in August. At that time:
– Customs declarations are directly linked to the store,Sell one, automatically write off one.;
– When processing tax refunds, the tax authority logs into the system directly to run a query; sellers do not need to bring a computer or verify each invoice individually;
– Government endorsement verifies the authenticity of the 9810 link, significantly improving the efficiency of tax refunds.
VI. Shenzhen’s Substantial Financial Subsidy Policies
Sellers who have successfully completed the "9810 Sunshine Export" process are eligible for:
– **Subsidies are provided based on 0.71 TP3T to 1.21 TP3T of the export value**, with a maximum of **9 million yuan** per company;
– Expenses such as overseas warehouse rent, last-mile delivery, and value-added services are tax-deductible as business expenses upon presentation of supporting documentation, and are also eligible for subsidies.
