If you’ve been in the cross-border e-commerce business for more than two years, you’ve likely noticed that competition in the European and American markets is getting fiercer, and profit margins are getting thinner.

Ad bidding on Amazon U.S. has doubled, VAT compliance costs on Amazon Europe remain high, and profit margins in Southeast Asia are razor-thin. More and more sellers are turning their attention to a booming new market—Latin America—and the first stop in Latin America is Mexico.

Mexico is Latin America’s second-largest economy and Amazon’s largest marketplace in the region. However, what many sellers don’t realize is that Mexico’s tax compliance requirements are more complex than those in Europe, and the consequences of non-compliance are far more severe.

如果你关注过头部跨境卖家的公司架构，会发现一个共同点：几乎每家都在香港注册了公司。

这不是跟风。从深圳到广州，从佛山到东莞，我们服务过的年销2000万以上的卖家，注册香港公司的比例这两年直线上升。原因很简单——当跨境生意做到一定规模，国内个人卡收汇、买单出口那套老办法走不通了，而香港公司恰好能解决几个最要命的问题。

但很多人对香港公司有误解，以为”注册个香港公司就合规了”。不是的。香港公司怎么用、用在哪个环节，决定了它是”合规利器”还是”摆设”。

How do you claim an export tax refund without input invoices? This is one of the most frequently asked questions in the cross-border e-commerce industry.

Many sellers take the customs declaration forms provided by their freight forwarders to the tax office to claim a tax refund, only to be turned away at the counter with a single question: ”Where’s the input tax invoice?”—leaving them completely dumbfounded on the spot. The goods were clearly purchased by them and were actually exported—so why should a single invoice block their path to a tax refund?

In today’s article, we’ll thoroughly explain whether you can get a tax refund without a ticket and offer you three practical solutions.
