# How to Choose a Haining Export Agency in 2026? Core Services Here

## Haining’s Exports to Southeast Asia: Policy Barriers Behind Growth and the Value of Agencies

In 2026,the order volume of Haining’s leather and home textile products exported to the Southeast Asian market increased by 18% year-on-year,but many enterprises reported that the local upgraded testing standards for formaldehyde content of leather products,strict label traceability requirements for home textile products,and unfamiliarity with the handling process of RCEP certificates of origin have caused some goods to be delayed in customs clearance for more than 10 days,and tax refund materials have been rejected due to inconsistent documents from time to time.Manager Lu mentioned at the Haining Foreign Trade Enterprise Symposium in March this year that these problems are not omissions in a single link,but caused by insufficient dynamic tracking of the target country’s policies by enterprises.

Zhongshen has been engaged in foreign trade agency services for more than 20 years.According to the product characteristics of Haining’s exports to Southeast Asia,it has established a full-process service system of "policy pre-research - document pre-review - customs clearance connection - tax refund tracking".The core is to intervene in each link in advance and turn policy barriers into compliance advantages — for example,in response to the ban on azo dyes in leather products in some Southeast Asian countries,Zhongshen updated the testing standard list 2 months in advance,helping customers avoid the cost of multiple inspections.

## Core Service Modules: Precise Responses to Southeast Asian Policies

### 1.Document Compliance Service: Solving Traceability and Label Issues

Member countries of RCEP in Southeast Asia have clear localized adjustments to the document requirements for Haining’s exported products:

- Leather products must provide **raw material origin traceability certificates**,including detailed information on the source country of raw hides and tanning processes;
- Home textile product labels must indicate **recyclable fiber proportion**,and must be printed in the local official language (such as Indonesian,Thai);
- Third-party test reports for all products must obtain **CNAS international mutual recognition certification**,and reports issued by some small domestic institutions are not recognized.

When enterprises handle it by themselves,they are often rejected due to incomplete information on traceability certificates and incorrect label languages.Some enterprises have their goods detained at the port for more than 7 days due to non-compliant test reports.Zhongshen’s response plans are:

- Establish a "Southeast Asia Document Template Library" and customize traceability certificates and label templates for different countries such as Vietnam,Thailand,and Indonesia;
- Connect with locally recognized third-party testing institutions such as SGS and Intertek to pre-review the certification qualifications of test reports in advance;
- Director Chai of the Document Department reviews each batch of documents before submission to ensure full compliance with RCEP rules of origin and local import regulations.

### 2.Destination Customs Clearance Service: Implementing Pre-declaration and Tariff Preferences

The customs clearance policies of some Southeast Asian countries have strict requirements on time nodes and tariff preferences:

- Vietnam implements a **pre-declaration system**,requiring complete customs clearance documents to be submitted 72 hours before the arrival of goods,otherwise a detention fee of 0.5% per day will be charged;
- Thailand imposes a 5%-8% tariff on imported leather products,but zero tariff can be enjoyed if an RCEP certificate of origin is provided,provided that **the regional value content of the product is ≥40%**;
- Indonesia requires imported home textile products to provide "environmental certification",and goods without certification will be required to be retested,which takes up to 15 days.

Zhongshen solves customs clearance problems through "pre-connection + system early warning":

- Launch the "Pre-declaration Reminder System",which automatically pushes the declaration time node after the goods leave the port,and the team of Director Shi of the Customs Declaration Department completes the submission of documents 24 hours in advance;
- For the calculation of regional value content,sort out the customer’s raw material procurement list in advance and suggest adjusting the proportion of domestic raw materials (for example,a Haining leather enterprise increased the proportion of domestic raw hide procurement from 35% to 42%) to ensure eligibility for zero tariff;
- Sign long-term cooperation agreements with the top 3 local customs clearance agents in Vietnam,Thailand and Indonesia to give priority to processing Zhongshen’s goods,with higher customs clearance priority than ordinary freight forwarders.

### 3.Export Tax Refund Service: Material Synchronization and Electronic Declaration Speed-up

For products exported to Southeast Asia,two additional types of materials are required for tax refund declaration:

- **Certificate of Consistency between Bill of Lading and Certificate of Origin**: Ensure that the product model and quantity on the bill of lading are completely consistent with those on the certificate of origin;
- **Customs Clearance Confirmation Form**: Issued by the local customs after the goods arrive at the port,which needs to be obtained by the enterprise through its own connection in some countries.

When enterprises declare by themselves,tax refunds are often rejected due to missing or inconsistent materials,and the capital recovery period is extended to more than 3 months.The advantages of Zhongshen’s tax refund service are:

- The Document Department and the Tax Refund Department work together to check the information of the three documents of "bill of lading - certificate of origin - contract" before submitting the documents,with an error rate of less than 2%;
- Connect with local customs clearance agents to obtain the customs clearance confirmation form within 1 working day after the goods arrive at the port,and upload it to the tax refund system synchronously;
- Adopt the self-developed "electronic tax refund declaration system",organize all materials in advance,submit immediately after meeting the conditions,and shorten the tax refund period to **15-20 working days**.

## Self-managed Exports vs.Agency Services: Efficiency and Cost Comparison

In the first half of 2026,Zhongshen counted the data of 32 Haining export enterprises it served,and the comparison of core indicators between self-managed exports and agency services is as follows:

| Core Indicators | Enterprise Self-operation | Zhongshen Agency |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Average Customs Clearance Duration | 7-14 working days | 3-5 working days |
| Average Tax Refund Cycle | 30-60 working days | 15-20 working days |
| Document Error Rejection Rate | 15%-20% | Less than 2% |
| Tariff Preference Utilization Rate | 60%-70% | Over 95% |
| Average Annual Extra Cost | Approx.82,000 RMB (detention fees,testing fees,etc.) | Approx.15,000 RMB (extra costs beyond agency service fees) |

## Customized Services: Adapting to Export Needs of Different Haining Products

In addition to the Southeast Asian market,Zhongshen provides customized agency services according to the export characteristics of different Haining products:

- Leather products exported to Europe: Focus on CE certification and RoHS directives,connect with EU-recognized testing institutions in advance,and complete certification pre-review before goods are packed;
- Home textile products exported to the Middle East: Connect with local agents to handle SASO certification,and provide Arabic label translation and review services;
- Hardware products exported to North America: Familiar with the safety standards of US FDA for hardware accessories,and review product material reports in advance;
- New energy products exported to Southeast Asia: Connect with local energy departments,assist in applying for import permits,and ensure compliance with local environmental protection requirements.

In 2025,a Haining home textile enterprise we served had its order exported to Thailand rejected because the label did not indicate the recyclable fiber proportion.After Zhongshen took over,we re-made labels that meet Thailand’s requirements,and optimized the handling process of RCEP certificates of origin.Finally,we shortened the customs clearance duration from 12 days to 4 days,shortened the tax refund cycle from 45 days to 18 days,and increased the enterprise’s capital turnover efficiency by 30%.

## Conclusion: Choosing the Right Agency to Smooth Haining’s Product Exports
