I. What is 0110 General Trade? Why is it the “ballast” of compliance?

0110 is the customs supervision code, the full name is “general trade”. It refers to the mode of trade in which enterprises with import and export business rights in China unilaterally import or unilaterally export goods.

Before cross-border e-commerce was clearly defined as a new industry, the most mainstream and standardized channel for domestic enterprises to formally sell their goods to offshore companies was 0110.Nowadays, it is not only the “traditional cornerstone” of international trade, but also, in the context of strong regulation, the most important thing is that it is the most important channel for domestic enterprises to sell their goods to offshore companies.The only orthodox solution for enterprises to build a sunny financial and tax system and enjoy legitimate export tax rebate dividends.The

Second, 0110 export tax rebate detailed version of the process: from 0 to 1 compliance guide (recommended collection)

The operation process of the 0110 model is standardized and clear, and must strictly follow the requirements of customs and taxation. We break it down step by step as follows:

Step 1: Qualification Filing and Preparation (Threshold Barrier)

To do a 0110, the business must be VATgeneral taxpayer, and have the right to import and export business. Now, although the "Foreign Trade Operator Filing Registration Form" has been canceled, the following hard filings still need to be completed:

1. Scope of business license: Must include “import and export of goods” or “import and export of technology”.
2. Customs filing: Handle "Customs import and export goods consignee and consignor record receipt".
3. Electronic port access: Opening of electronic port IC card for customs declaration data transmission.
4. Foreign exchange directory registration: Register with the Foreign Exchange Bureau for the Directory of Foreign Exchange Receipts and Payments for Trade in Goods.
5. Tax refund eligibility filing: File the export tax refund (exemption) qualification with the tax bureau.

Step 2: Documentary filing (the lifeline of three consistent documents)

Enterprises need to prepare a full set of compliant documents after signing trade contracts with overseas buyers.Special Note: The core of the tax audit is the “flow of goods, capital flow, bill flow” three flows.

• commercial paper: Foreign sales contract, commercial invoice, packing list (name, quantity and amount must be strictly consistent with the customs declaration).
• transport document: Ocean Bill of Lading (B/L) or Air Waybill (AWB).
• Customs declaration documents: Completed Customs Declaration for Export Goods.
• Other documents: Power of attorney for customs brokerage, regulatory documents (e.g. commodity inspection and customs clearance) according to the HS code.

Step 3: Export Declaration and Customs Clearance (Customs Audit)

Enterprises or their commissioned customs brokers declare to the Customs through the “Single Window”. Customs examines, evaluates and releases the declaration.Once this step is completed, you will get the key “Export Declaration (Tax Return)”.

Step 4: Receipt of foreign exchange and application for tax rebate (closing the loop on the return of funds)

After the goods are exported, the overseas buyer is required to pay for the goods through compliant banking channels. Enterprises submit tax refund applications through the e-Tax Bureau with the following key documents:

• Export declarations (special tax refund coupon)
• VAT invoices (input credit coupons)
• Bank receipts/vouchers

The tax refund will be credited directly to the enterprise's account after the tax authorities have passed the audit. According to the enterprise's tax credit rating, a class of enterprises can be the fastest to5 working daysto the account, category 2 and 3 enterprises usually need to10-20 working daysThe
