# Shantou Export Agency Customs Declaration Services, Focus on Core Links to Ensure Efficient Customs Clearance

## I.Market Background and Common Challenges for Shantou Electronic Exports to Vietnam

In 2026,demand in Vietnam’s electronics market continues to rise,especially for smartphone accessories,small household appliances and other products.As an electronics industry cluster,Shantou’s exports of such products account for 38% of local total exports to Vietnam.However,as Vietnam adjusts its trade policies to protect domestic industries,enterprises often encounter blockages in the customs declaration process.A Shantou electronics manufacturer that Manager Sun has assisted once had goods detained at the port for 3 days because the certificate of origin did not meet Vietnam’s new requirements,which directly affected the delivery schedule.

- The newly implemented refined RCEP rules of origin in Vietnam make some Shantou enterprises unable to enjoy tariff preferences due to incomplete raw material source certificates;
- Electronic products are required to provide QCVN certification,and some enterprises are required to supplement incomplete certification documents,which extends customs clearance time;
- In the foreign exchange receipt and payment link,Vietnam’s supervision over cross-border capital flow has become stricter,leading to delayed fund arrival for enterprises due to inconsistent declaration information.

## II.Core Value of Zhongshen’s Export Agency Services

Targeted at the policy characteristics of Shantou’s electronic exports to Vietnam,Zhongshen’s agency services focus on solving the two major issues of "compliance" and "efficiency".Manager Sun stated that his team updates the Vietnam trade policy database every month to ensure timely adaptation to enterprise needs and avoid customs declaration risks caused by policy lag.

## III.Step-by-Step Breakdown of Service Modules and Response Strategies

### 1.Document Review and Certificate of Origin Processing

Vietnam’s RCEP rules of origin require that electronic products meet the standard of "regional value content ≥ 40%",and supporting documents including raw material procurement contracts and invoices need to be provided.Zhongshen’s response measures include:

- Review the source of enterprises’ raw materials in advance,and coordinate with the supply chain to supplement local procurement certificates for parts that do not meet requirements;
- Cooperate with certificate of origin issuing authorities recognized by Vietnam Customs,provide "pre-review + expedited processing" services,which cuts 2 days off the processing time compared with enterprises handling it independently;
- Establish a document template library,and provide standardized filling guidelines for certification documents of electronic products (such as QCVN) to reduce error rates.

### 2.Risk Response for Vietnam Customs Clearance Link

Vietnam Customs focuses on inspecting product labeling,energy efficiency grades and other items for electronic products,and some Shantou enterprises have orders returned because their labels do not meet Vietnamese language requirements.Zhongshen’s customs clearance team has the following practical experience:

### 3.Optimization of Export Tax Refund and Foreign Exchange Receipt and Payment

The tax refund cycle for Shantou electronic enterprises exporting to Vietnam is often affected by document matching degree.Zhongshen’s tax refund service has targeted measures:

- Since 2026,the average tax refund cycle for assisted Shantou enterprises has been shortened from 15 days to 10 days,and foreign exchange arrival time has been shortened from 3 days to 1 day.

## IV.How Agency Services Improve Customs Clearance and Tax Refund Efficiency

Zhongshen’s team has been deeply engaged in Shantou for many years,is familiar with the product characteristics of local electronic enterprises,and maintains regular communication with Vietnam Customs.General Manager Wei once handled an urgent order for a Shantou mobile phone accessories manufacturer.As the Vietnamese customer pressed for delivery,Zhongshen adopted the "pre-clearance + priority inspection" channel to complete customs clearance within 12 hours after the goods arrived at the port,48 hours faster than the conventional speed.

In terms of tax refund,Zhongshen’s document team will check enterprises’ export invoices,customs declaration forms,bills of lading and other information in advance to avoid tax refund delays caused by minor errors.In 2025,a Shantou household appliance enterprise had its self-declaration rejected due to incorrect commodity code on the customs declaration form.After Zhongshen took over the case,it rechecked the code,completed the correction and submitted the application within 3 days,and the tax refund was successfully received.

## V.Customized Services Adapt to Different Needs

Zhongshen provides customized agency solutions for different types of export enterprises in Shantou: for example,small electronic manufacturers can choose the basic "document + customs clearance" package,while large enterprises can choose the "full-process agency" package (including warehousing and international transportation).General Manager Wang stated that they will develop exclusive policy response strategies according to enterprises’ target markets and product types.For example,for Shantou toy enterprises exporting to Europe,they will focus on the update of CE certification.
