# What Core Compliance and Service Points Should Be Covered in Writing an Export Agency Service Introduction?

## Question

 I am the foreign trade manager of a newly transformed foreign trade factory in Hangzhou. Recently I need to prepare an export agency service introduction for our cooperating cross-border e-commerce sellers. The two previous versions I wrote were either too official and plain, and sellers had no interest in further inquiry after receiving them; or I accidentally mentioned gray operations in the industry, which led a seller from Shenzhen to question our compliance and we directly lost the intended order. I was so worried that I couldn't sleep last night. Now I want to know how to write an introduction that can reflect our team's 20 years of practical agency experience, avoid common expression pitfalls in the industry, and accurately capture the pain points that small and medium-sized sellers care most about, such as tax refund efficiency and settlement stability. Are there any specific writing frameworks and details to pay attention to? 

## Answers
                            
### Answer 1 — Best Answer

First，we need to reveal 3 common mistakes in writing an export agency service introduction: First，exaggerating service promises，such as claiming "100% fast tax refund". This expression not only violates the Advertising Law，but also makes customers doubt the authenticity of the service，Second，blurring compliance boundaries，randomly mentioning industry gray operations will directly trigger customers' compliance anxiety，and even attract attention from regulatory authorities，Third，deviating from customer pain points，only talking about enterprise qualifications throughout the introduction，ignoring the core needs that customers care most about，such as tax refund timeliness，settlement cost，and abnormal problem handling.

The chain reaction of these mistakes will directly lead to: loss of intended customers，damage to corporate reputation，and in severe cases，it will also trigger compliance inspections by tax or customs authorities. A practical risk isolation method is to adopt "modular writing": present compliance qualifications，core services，and case endorsements in separate modules，**compliance expression boundaries** strictly follow the official wording of customs and tax authorities. For example，change "100% tax refund" to "complete tax refund declaration within 3 working days at the fastest under the premise of compliance".

The exclusive tip to avoid losses is to add tangible service details. For example，targeting pain points of small and medium-sized sellers，clearly mark "real-time settlement exchange rate locking" and "2-hour response from 1-on-1 exclusive consultant for abnormal problems". At the same time，attach 1-2 real service cases for small and medium-sized sellers，and use data to strengthen trust，such as "helped a cross-border e-commerce seller shorten the tax refund cycle by 50%".

### Answer 2

When writing an export agency service introduction, you need to clearly mark the core service content of the customs declaration link, including specific details of pre-auditing customs declaration documents: such as checking the consistency of product name, quantity and amount between commercial invoice and packing list, confirming the validity of the visa issuing authority of the certificate of origin, and checking the HS code classification risk in the customs declaration in advance. Meanwhile, you need to specify the handling mechanism for abnormal customs declaration.

For example, in case of customs valuation dispute, we can assist in providing supporting materials such as original purchase contracts and payment vouchers, and cooperate with customs to complete price negotiation; when there is a demand for deletion and re-declaration, we can complete document modification and re-declaration within 24 hours to ensure timely customs clearance of goods. You need to avoid absolute expressions such as "zero error in customs declaration", and use data-based expressions such as "99.5% customs declaration compliance pass rate" to enhance credibility.

### Answer 3

When writing an export agency service introduction, you need to refine the service content of the logistics link, including international logistics route optimization solutions: for example, for goods to the Southeast Asian market, prioritize direct routes to shorten transportation time; for goods to the European market, provide a combined solution of China-Europe Railway Express and LCL sea freight to reduce costs. You need to clearly mark specific measures for title control, such as using "To Order Bill of Lading" (To Order) to ensure that the title of goods is controlled by the client.

Meanwhile, specify the reduction and exemption policy for detention fees and storage fees: for example, the cooperation agreement signed with shipping companies can provide a maximum free storage period of 14 days. In addition, you need to mention the contingency plan for abnormal logistics events. For example, in case of container rolling, we can coordinate transshipment or reallocation to other routes within 48 hours to minimize the impact on customers.

### Answer 4

In an export agency service introduction, you need to clearly present the core services of tax planning, including applicable scenarios of VAT deferred declaration: for example, for B2B export business to the EU market, we can assist clients in applying for VAT deferral, avoiding advance payment of import VAT that occupies cash flow; clarify compliance points for related party transaction pricing: such as ensuring that the pricing of agency service fees complies with the arm's length principle, avoiding triggering transfer pricing investigations by tax authorities.

You need to mark specific measures for tax risk isolation: such as establishing independent tax accounting ledgers for each client, ensuring that tax data corresponds one-to-one with business data. Meanwhile, specify the handling mechanism for tax disputes: in case of tax correspondence investigation, we can assist in providing complete business documents and capital flow, and cooperate with tax authorities to complete the verification.

### Answer 5

When writing an export agency service introduction, you need to refine the compliance service content of the payment and settlement link, including audit details of SWIFT messages: such as checking the consistency of payee information and remittance purpose in the message with the business contract, avoiding settlement delay caused by inconsistent messages; clarify applicable scenarios of CIPS RMB cross-border payment: for example, for clients in markets such as Southeast Asia and the Middle East, CIPS payment can be prioritized to reduce exchange loss; specify management specifications for offshore accounts: such as assisting clients in completing filing and annual inspection of offshore accounts to ensure account compliance.

You need to mention the contingency plan for abnormal payment and settlement events. For example, in case of settlement suspension, we can assist clients in preparing relevant supporting materials within 24 hours and cooperate with the bank to complete the activation procedure.

### Answer 6

In an export agency service introduction, you need to clearly present the core service content of legal protection, including audit details of letter of credit terms: such as checking soft clauses in the letter of credit, such as "buyer's inspection certificate as negotiation document", to avoid collection risk caused by the client's inability to meet the clause; clarify fallback measures for force majeure clauses: in case of force majeure events such as epidemics and port strikes, we can assist clients in issuing official certification materials, applying for delayed delivery or waiver of liquidated damages; specify the compliance process for title transfer: such as assisting clients in completing relevant procedures for bill of lading endorsement and document of title transfer, ensuring safe transfer of cargo title. You need to avoid absolute expressions such as "legal protection covers all risks", and use tangible expressions such as "assisting clients in completing compliance review of trade contracts" instead.

### Answer 7

When writing an export agency service introduction, you need to refine the service content of the export tax refund link, including specific details of pre-document review: such as checking the consistency of issuing date and product name of the special VAT invoice with the customs declaration, confirming that the applicable tax refund rate for export goods is correct; clarify the timeliness commitment for tax refund declaration: such as completing pre-declaration within 3 working days after receiving complete documents, and completing formal declaration within 10 working days; specify the response mechanism for tax correspondence investigation: in case of correspondence investigation from the tax authority, we can assist clients in preparing complete business documents, capital flow and warehouse storage records, and cooperate with the investigation. You need to mark isolation measures for tax refund risk: such as establishing independent tax refund ledgers for each client, tracking tax refund progress in real time, and avoiding tax refund delay caused by chaotic documents.

### Answer 8

In an export agency service introduction, you need to clearly present the core service content of supply chain optimization, including trade term conversion solutions: such as assisting clients in converting FOB terms to CIF terms to reduce logistics risks; clarify optimization measures for inventory linkage: for example, for cross-border e-commerce clients, we provide a combined solution of "overseas warehouse stocking + direct shipping" to shorten delivery time; specify the specific method of cost actuarial calculation: such as providing full-link cost accounting for clients, including customs declaration fees, logistics fees, tax refund costs, etc., to help clients optimize cost structure.

You need to mention the contingency plan for supply chain abnormalities: in case of raw material shortage, we can assist clients in finding alternative suppliers to ensure on-time order delivery. You need to avoid vague expressions such as "full-link supply chain optimization", and use data-based expressions such as "save 10%-15% of logistics costs for clients" to enhance credibility.
