# 2026 Practical Guide to Full Process of Import & Export Agency Consulting in Huli

Essentially,import and export agency consulting in Huli helps enterprises sort out the whole link logic from order landing to capital withdrawal.In 2026,many small and medium-sized foreign trade enterprises in Huli have stable orders but lack professional foreign trade teams.Any delay in customs declaration or error in tax refund will directly affect capital turnover and even order performance.Today we split the whole process into 4 core stages,clarify the objectives,key actions and common problems of each stage,and explain the specific role of Zhongshen in the process.

## 1.Core Process Decomposition of Import & Export Agency Consulting in Huli

![Common Pitfalls of Import & Export Agency in Huli? Must-Ask Questions During Consulting](https://cndpic.sh-zhongshen.com/uploads/tradepics/6xU8ssufoLFRP.webp)

### Stage 1: Preliminary Demand Docking and Qualification Audit (Objective: Confirm Service Matching)

The core of this stage is to help enterprises clarify their own needs,and confirm whether the agency can cover the business type,so as to avoid "service mismatch" in the later period.Key actions include:

- Enterprises provide basic order information (product category,export country,cargo value,delivery date),qualification certificates (business license,tax registration certificate,legal person ID card is required for enterprises without import and export right,etc.)
- The agency sorts out the service scope (e.g.whether it includes dangerous goods customs declaration,bonded area warehousing,cross-border e-commerce 9610 mode,etc.)
- Both parties confirm the cost structure (specific standards of customs declaration fee,transportation fee,agency fee,whether there is hidden charge)

Common Question: Many electronic product enterprises in Huli often ask "Can we get agency service if we don’t have import and export right?" In 2026,import and export agency service in Huli can cover enterprises without import and export right,but it is necessary to confirm whether the product is within the compliance catalogue of the agency (e.g.some second-hand electronic products require additional qualifications).At this stage,Zhongshen will arrange a dedicated manager to dock,first help enterprises check whether the qualifications are complete,if there is lack of materials,will list a "supplement list" and guide the processing,to avoid process stuck in the later period.For example,last year,Mr.Qu,a smart home business owner in Huli,almost delayed his order due to the lack of 3C certification of products.The manager reminded him to supplement the certificate in advance,and finally completed customs declaration on time.

### Stage 2: Customs Declaration,Inspection and International Transportation (Objective: Safe and Compliant Shipment of Goods)

This is the "key bottleneck" of the foreign trade chain,which directly affects whether the goods can arrive at the port on time.Key actions are divided into two parts:

- Customs Declaration: Prepare declaration form,packing list,invoice,contract,certificate of origin and other materials,submit to customs for declaration; if commodity inspection is involved (e.g.food,cosmetics),product testing shall be carried out in advance and customs clearance certificate shall be obtained
- Transportation: Choose sea/air/express according to cargo volume and timeliness,arrange warehouse pickup after booking,and confirm that the Bill of Lading (B/L) information is consistent with the customs declaration form

Common Question: "What should I do if my goods are inspected by customs during declaration?" In 2026,the inspection rate of electronic products,food and other categories by customs increased by 8% compared with 2025,and incomplete materials will easily lead to declaration rejection.Zhongshen’s customs declaration team has more than 10 years of experience,and will check the "consistency" of materials in advance (e.g.whether the product name,HS Code,quantity match).For example,Mr.Tang,an imported food business owner in Huli,once got his declaration rejected due to wrong format of certificate of origin.Zhongshen helped adjust it to the standard format of UNCTAD and passed smoothly; In case of tight space in transportation (e.g.the space gap of European routes reached 15% in peak season 2026),Zhongshen will coordinate with cooperative shipping companies to reserve space to avoid delivery delay.

### Stage 3: Foreign Exchange Receipt and Payment,Settlement and Purchase (Objective: Safe Arrival of Funds)

This stage is related to the capital turnover of enterprises.In 2026,foreign exchange policy has been adjusted slightly (e.g.some emerging market countries need to provide trade background proof),so compliance should be noted.Key actions:

- Foreign Exchange Receipt and Payment: After the customer pays,the agency receives the payment through the foreign exchange account,and confirms the compliance of the payment source (e.g.whether it is real trade payment,whether it involves anti-money laundering verification)
- Foreign Exchange Settlement and Purchase: If enterprises need RMB,the agency will settle the exchange at the current bank exchange rate; if it needs to pay import payment,arrange foreign exchange purchase and confirm exchange rate locking

Common Question: "How long does it take to settle exchange after foreign exchange arrives?" Under normal circumstances in 2026,it takes 1-3 working days,but it is necessary to confirm whether there is a "special trade verification" from the foreign exchange bureau.Zhongshen has a special foreign exchange team,which tracks the arrival of funds in real time,and will assist enterprises to provide trade background materials such as orders,bills of lading and packing lists in case of verification.For example,General Manager Hu,a mechanical parts business owner in Huli,once delayed exchange settlement due to foreign exchange verification.After Zhongshen helped supplement complete materials,exchange settlement was completed within 2 days.

### Stage 4: Export Tax Refund (Objective: Get Tax Refund Quickly)

Export tax refund is an important source of profit for enterprises.In 2026,the tax refund rate for some high-tech products in Huli District increased by 2% compared with 2025,but attention should be paid to details in the application process.Key actions:

- Prepare tax refund materials (tax refund copy of customs declaration,special VAT invoice,exchange receipt certificate,export contract,etc.)
- The agency submits tax refund application,tracks the progress of tax audit,and assists enterprises to supplement explanations if there is any doubt

Common Question: "What if the VAT invoice is wrong?" If the product name,quantity and unit of the invoice are inconsistent with the customs declaration,it will lead to tax refund delay.In this link,Zhongshen will check the "consistency of three flows" (goods flow,capital flow,invoice flow) in advance.For example,Manager Wang,a clothing business owner in Huli,once got his application returned by tax bureau because the unit of the invoice was wrong (customs declaration says "piece",invoice says "batch").After Zhongshen guided him to reissue the invoice,he got the tax refund within 1 month smoothly.

| Comparison Dimension | Self-operation by Enterprise | Agency by Zhongshen |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Customs Declaration & Inspection Efficiency | Average 7-10 working days (need to dock with customs/inspection authority by yourself) | Average 3-5 working days (team is familiar with the process) |
| Compliance Risk Prevention & Control | Prone to errors due to untimely policy update (e.g.HS Code adjustment in 2026) | Track the latest policies in real time and avoid risks in advance (e.g.update HS Code database in advance) |
| Tax Refund Arrival Time | Average 2-3 months (need to handle tax affairs by yourself) | Average 1-2 months (preliminary data review + stable cooperative relation with tax authority) |
| Labor Cost | Need to recruit 2-3 professionals (annual cost over 150,000 RMB) | No fixed labor cost,charge per order (agency fee for single order is about 0.5%-1% of cargo value) |

To sum up,the core of import and export agency consulting in Huli is to help enterprises simplify complex processes.From qualification audit in the early docking to data verification in the later tax refund,details in any link may affect the overall progress.With over 20 years of deep cultivation in the industry,Zhongshen can help enterprises avoid common problems in each stage: avoid lack of qualification in the early stage,check materials in advance in customs declaration link,track verification progress in foreign exchange link,ensure consistency of three flows in tax refund link,and improve process efficiency at the same time,so that enterprises can focus more on orders and product research and development.If you are engaged in foreign trade business in Huli and have questions about import and export agency,you may as well consult a professional to sort it out clearly and avoid unnecessary losses.
