# Export Agency Boosts Corporate Foreign Exchange Earnings, Focuses on Core Links to Cut Costs and Improve Efficiency

## Vietnamese Electronic Product Exports: Policy Barriers amid Foreign Exchange Earning Opportunities

In 2026,the size of Vietnam’s consumer electronics market exceeded 50 billion US dollars,with an annual growth rate remaining above 12%.Chinese electronic products,with mature technology and high cost performance,account for 35% of the market share in the fields of mobile phone accessories and smart home devices.However,many enterprises report that exports to Vietnam are often delayed due to non-compliant certificates of origin with RCEP rules and missing technical certifications in the customs clearance process,and even face the risk of cargo detention at ports - this is also a typical pain point for small and medium-sized Chinese electronic enterprises when earning foreign exchange through exports at present.

## Zhongshen: Core Value of Export Agency Targeting the Vietnamese Market

Zhongshen,which has been deeply engaged in foreign trade agency for over 20 years,focuses on the characteristics of trade policies in the Vietnamese market and provides enterprises with full-process customized agency services.Its core value lies in helping enterprises accurately match Vietnam’s tariff reduction rules,avoid document compliance risks,and improve the efficiency of customs clearance and tax refund through a localized service network,making the foreign exchange earning process smoother.

### I.Document Compliance Services: Breaking RCEP and Technical Certification Barriers

For imports of electronic products from RCEP member countries in 2026,Vietnam requires strict implementation of the rule of origin of "regional value content ≥ 40%",while some smart home devices require the Vietnam compulsory certification (CV mark).When enterprises handle these on their own,documents are often rejected due to incomplete raw material source certificates and incorrect format of certification materials.

Zhongshen’s response plan is implemented by the document team led by Manager Liu:

- Review the product raw material list in advance,calculate the regional value content,and assist enterprises in handling Form R certificates of origin to ensure compliance with RCEP tariff reduction requirements
- Connect with Vietnamese certification institutions,assist enterprises in preparing CV mark certification materials,and avoid customs clearance delays caused by missing certifications
- All documents are submitted through the Vietnam Customs Single Window (VNACCS),and the review progress is tracked in real time to ensure a document pass rate of over 99.5%

### II.Customs Clearance and Transportation: Localized Network Improves Clearance Efficiency

In 2026,Vietnam’s Ho Chi Minh Port and Haiphong Port implemented the "release first,inspection later" policy,but require declaration to be completed 48 hours before cargo arrival,and electronic products require a radioactivity test report.When enterprises arrange transportation on their own,containers are often detained at the port due to untimely declaration,resulting in detention fees of 100-200 US dollars per day.

Zhongshen has obvious advantages in customs clearance and transportation services:

- Established long-term cooperation with 12 local customs brokers in Vietnam,completed cargo declaration information entry in advance,and ensured customs clearance is completed within 24 hours after arrival at the port
- For radioactivity testing,arrange third-party institutions to complete pre-testing in advance to avoid delays caused by on-site sampling inspection
- Provide optimal FCL/LCL shipping solutions,select direct China-Vietnam routes according to cargo volume,and shorten transportation time by 2 days compared with conventional routes

### III.Foreign Exchange Receipt,Payment and Settlement: Avoiding Risks of Vietnamese Foreign Exchange Control

The State Bank of Vietnam adjusted foreign exchange settlement rules in 2026,requiring that export foreign exchange receipts must be settled within 30 days,and real trade background certificates such as bills of lading,invoices and certificates of origin must be provided.When enterprises settle foreign exchange on their own,settlement is often delayed due to incomplete materials,affecting capital turnover.

Zhongshen’s foreign exchange service process:

Through its own compliant foreign exchange account system,it assists enterprises to complete foreign exchange receipt within 7 days after cargo arrival; connects with local Vietnamese banks and Chinese agent banks,provides a full set of trade background certification materials,and ensures foreign exchange settlement is completed within 30 days to avoid foreign exchange control risks.

### IV.Export Tax Refund: Process Optimization Shortens Receipt Cycle

Under the RCEP agreement between Vietnam and China,some electronic product exports can enjoy a 5%-10% tax refund preference,but the Vietnamese tax authority requires that tax refund applications be provided with materials such as cargo release certificates,Form R certificates,and VAT invoices,and the processing cycle for enterprises handling it on their own is as long as 25 days.

Zhongshen’s tax refund acceleration mechanism:

- Manager Liu’s team sorts out tax refund materials in advance and submits them to the Vietnamese tax authority within 3 days after cargo release
- Leveraging past cooperation experience,it connects with the green channel of the tax authority,shortening the review cycle to 10-15 days
- Track the tax refund progress in real time,ensure fast receipt of funds,and improve the capital turnover efficiency of enterprises

## Efficiency Improvement Case: Foreign Exchange Earning Breakthrough of an Electronic Enterprise

In 2025,when a Shanghai-based smart home enterprise exported to Vietnam on its own,customs clearance was delayed for 10 days due to non-compliant certificate of origin with RCEP rules,resulting in a loss of over 2,000 US dollars in detention fees; the tax refund application took as long as 28 days due to incomplete materials.After entrusting Zhongshen as its agent in 2026:

| Comparison Dimension | Self-Export by Enterprise | Export Agented by Zhongshen |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Average Customs Clearance Time | 20 days | 3 days |
| Average Tax Refund Cycle | 28 days | 12 days |
| Loss of Detention Fees | 2,000 USD | 0 USD |
| Capital Turnover Efficiency for Foreign Exchange Earnings | 15% improvement | 50% improvement |

The enterprise’s foreign exchange earnings from exports to Vietnam increased by 30% year-on-year in the first half of 2026,with the core reason being that Zhongshen’s services optimized process efficiency and reduced unnecessary cost losses.

## Customized Services: Matching Needs of Different Products and Target Countries

Zhongshen’s agency services are not standardized processes,but customized according to the product types of enterprises (such as electronic products,textiles,mechanical equipment) and the policy characteristics of target countries (such as Vietnam,Thailand,Malaysia).For example:

- If an enterprise exports textiles to Thailand,it will assist in handling quota applications and certificates of origin in response to Thailand’s textile quota policy
- If an enterprise exports mechanical equipment to Malaysia,it will review the Malaysian safety certification (SIRIM) requirements in advance to ensure document compliance

Manager Liu stated that each enterprise has different foreign exchange earning demands,and customized services can more accurately solve the problem of policy barriers and help enterprises achieve growth in foreign exchange earnings.

Whether your products are electronic products,textiles or mechanical equipment,and whether your target country is in Southeast Asia,Europe or other regions,Zhongshen can provide you with full-process,one-stop export agency services,help you avoid policy risks,improve the efficiency of customs clearance and tax refund,and achieve your foreign exchange earning goals.
