  "More than 40 million yuan (RMB, the same below) export tax rebates are'accounted in one day', and sufficient working capital is invested in product research and development and market development, allowing us to accelerate the pace of large-scale preparations, large-scale research and development, and internationalization strategies." Shandong Xinhua Zhang Daiming, chairman of the Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., said that the average processing time for enterprise export tax rebates has been reduced to 3.8 working days, and the rapid refund of tax rebates provides a strong financial guarantee for companies to revitalize their funds.

  Weihai Huajun Technology Co., Ltd. also feels the facilitation of cross-border trade.

Recently, a Korean cosmetic sold by a company was returned by consumers.

In the past, it took two weeks to complete the return process, but this time it only took two days.

"The previous return process was very complicated and affected the consumer experience. Nowadays, the retail import return center warehouse has landed, and returns can be completed in the bonded area. The consumer shopping experience has improved, and the enterprise cost has also been greatly reduced." Huajun Company's cross-border e-commerce project manager Yao Yao said.

  In the view of Hou Xidong, head of the comprehensive coordination team of the Shandong Provincial Business Transfer Office, these changes are due to the new ideas of Shandong's stable foreign trade work in recent years.

By continuously optimizing the business environment, focusing on element guarantees and policy supply, the province has promoted the implementation of new policies and new models of cross-border e-commerce, and strived to improve the convenience of investment and trade, so that many small and medium-sized enterprises can feel the "Shandong Change".

  Hou Xidong said that Shandong is deepening the reform of "delegating control and servicing", sticking to the cutting edge, and striving to optimize the business environment.

The province’s commerce, customs, ports, taxation and other departments have formed a joint force to promote cross-border trade facilitation, reengineer processes around customs clearance, tax rebates, and foreign exchange, and innovate business models such as "two-step declaration", "advance declaration", and "green channel", and export The average tax rebate approval time has been compressed to 3.8 working days, and the key export companies have been "submitted and approved" and "refunded as approved", which strongly supports the steady and positive development of foreign trade companies.

  The “chain free trade” new bonded exhibition model is a practice in the Jinan area of ​​the Shandong Pilot Free Trade Zone using the “one item, one code” technology to explore a new trade model. Refunds, taxes are paid only after the transaction is completed, etc., to realize the traceability of the entire process of imported goods.

This approach alleviates the problem that the two domestic and foreign markets are separated by tariffs and technical trade barriers under the traditional trade model, and meets the requirements of the customs to improve the efficiency and safety of supervision.

  Among the goods exported by market procurement trade and cross-border e-commerce, small orders and small batches are the majority. The two trade methods are assembled and packed separately, which often causes waste of containers or a long waiting time for consolidation.

In this regard, Linyi Customs has innovated its supervision methods, combined with the characteristics of the inland port of Linyi Port, and explored the three ways of consolidating goods, "9710", "9810" and "1039" through customs, and promoted "market procurement + cross-border e-commerce B2B". The new model of "cooperative going to sea".

In addition, the local government and the State Administration of Taxation are also jointly studying the policy of "exemption without invoice and tax refund with invoice" for cross-border e-commerce B2B exports to resolve the tax concerns of export companies.

  It is understood that at present, Shandong agricultural products, clothing, furniture and home appliances have applied the new cross-border e-commerce business-to-business (B2B) export model, making customs clearance more convenient.

At present, a total of 7 cities in the province have become national cross-border e-commerce comprehensive test areas, more than 200 provincial-level cross-border e-commerce entities have been cultivated and recognized, and more than 10,000 traditional foreign trade companies in the province have used cross-border e-commerce to achieve new development.
