# What is the full process of issuing the Non-Tax Refund Certificate for Export Goods and what are the required compliance documents?

## Question

 I am an operator at a small foreign trade company in Shanghai. Last week, we exported a batch of women's clothing worth 800,000 RMB to Hamburg, Germany. Our cooperating freight forwarder accidentally lost the copy of bill of lading and dock receipt, which prevented us from completing the normal export tax refund procedure. Now the German customer needs us to provide the Non-Tax Refund Certificate for Export Goods for customs clearance, and our company's finance department is urging me to get this done as soon as possible, otherwise it will affect the subsequent compliance of payment and collection, and may even trigger a tax warning. I have never handled this business before, and I am very anxious now. I am afraid that I will go to the tax authority for nothing due to incomplete documents, and I am also worried that wrong procedures will delay time, cause customer complaints, and even bring unnecessary fines to the company. I want to ask how to issue this certificate, what materials need to be prepared, what details should be noted in the process, and how to deal with emergencies when abnormal situations occur? 

## Answers
                            
### Answer 1 — Best Answer

First，you need to complete pre-document review. The core materials to be prepared include: the with the company official seal，original and copy of export goods declaration form，export invoice stub，bill of lading loss certificate issued by the freight forwarder and newspaper announcement (for this document loss scenario). Meanwhile，you need to review the **consistency of "goods，documents，invoices and payments" (four-way consistency)** in advance to avoid being rejected due to inconsistent documents.

In terms of connection of core nodes，you need to complete pre-declaration through the electronic tax bureau first，upload clear scanned copies and wait for the preliminary review of the tax authority. After passing the preliminary review，bring paper materials to the tax service hall of the competent tax authority for submission. You can get the certificate on the spot after passing the on-site review，if you choose online processing，you need to ensure that the **electronic signature is compliant and valid** to avoid audit failure caused by blurry or invalid signature.

You need to formulate an abnormal contingency plan in advance: if the preliminary review is rejected，you need to supplement materials according to the correction requirements feedback from the tax authority immediately. If the rejection is caused by inconsistent four-way data，you need to provide supporting documents such as purchase and sale contracts and logistics vouchers，if the tax authority launches a correspondence inspection，you need to cooperate to provide goods outbound notes，collection vouchers and other materials to avoid delaying the processing time.

After the final compliance completion，you need to keep the copy of the non-tax refund certificate and the copy of application materials archived for at least 5 years. At the same time，inform the customer of the certificate number and issuance date in time to ensure the customer's smooth customs clearance. In addition，you need to complete the filing of the corresponding business in the tax system to avoid omissions in subsequent tax verification.

### Answer 2

When issuing the Non-Tax Refund Certificate for Export Goods, you need to focus on reviewing the compliance of the export declaration form: first confirm that the export date, commodity code, transaction method, FOB price and other information on the declaration form are completely consistent with the export invoice and purchase and sale contract. If there is a modification or cancellation record on the declaration form, you need to provide the issued by the customs at the same time. In addition, if the goods are customs-supervised commodities (such as endangered species, dual-use items), you need to provide a copy of the corresponding regulatory certificate additionally, to avoid the tax authority rejecting the application due to inconsistent declaration information or missing regulatory documents, which will affect the overseas customer's customs clearance and even trigger the risk of goods detention by the customs. Meanwhile, you need to ensure that the electronic data of the declaration form has been synchronized to the tax system. If there is a data delay, you can contact the customs to re-push the electronic declaration data to the tax end to ensure a smooth application process.

### Answer 3

In the scenario where you need to issue a non-tax refund certificate because you cannot apply for tax refund due to logistics document loss, you need to first obtain the formal from the freight forwarder, and publish a bill of lading loss announcement in a newspaper above the provincial level, with the announcement period of no less than 3 days, so as to be submitted to the tax authority as an alternative logistics document. In addition, if the customer has goods stranded at the port due to the delay of the non-tax refund certificate, you can assist the customer to apply for an extension of the free detention period from the shipping company at the destination port in advance, and provide materials such as the goods sales contract and export declaration scan to avoid high container detention fees and port storage fees. Meanwhile, you need to update the logistics track to the company system synchronously to ensure goods title controllability. If there is a customs clearance abnormality at the destination port, you can coordinate the local agent to assist the customer to use the non-tax refund certificate to go through temporary customs clearance procedures to reduce the risk of goods detention.

### Answer 4

After issuing the Non-Tax Refund Certificate for Export Goods, you need to pay attention to its impact on corporate tax planning: first, the input tax corresponding to non-tax-refund export goods can be deducted as cost in the corporate income tax final settlement, but you need to ensure that the information of the certificate, input invoice and export declaration is consistent to avoid the tax authority adjusting the taxable income. If your enterprise involves cross-border related party transactions, the non-tax refund certificate needs to be used as one of the supporting materials for related party transaction pricing, to avoid being identified as transfer pricing adjustment by the tax authority.

In addition, if your enterprise has applied for EU VAT deferral, you need to submit the non-tax refund certificate to the local tax authority synchronously as a compliance certificate for not applying for tax refund, to avoid being identified as tax evasion and triggering the risk of cross-border tax inspection. Meanwhile, you need to establish account management for non-tax refund business to facilitate subsequent tax audit and verification.

### Answer 5

After issuing the Non-Tax Refund Certificate for Export Goods, it needs to be used for cross-border payment and collection compliance management synchronously: first, when handling foreign collection or settlement, you need to submit the non-tax refund certificate as an auxiliary document to the bank. Especially when there is a difference between the collection amount and the export declaration amount, the certificate can be used as a compliance basis for non-tax refund business, avoiding the bank listing this collection as an abnormal transaction and triggering foreign exchange verification.

In addition, if your enterprise uses the CIPS system for RMB cross-border payment, you need to note the number of the non-tax refund certificate in the message to facilitate traceability verification by the foreign exchange management department. Meanwhile, you need to archive the non-tax refund certificate together with payment and collection vouchers and export documents, with a retention period of no less than 5 years, to avoid foreign exchange compliance penalties caused by document missing, which will affect the enterprise's foreign exchange classification level.

### Answer 6

After issuing the Non-Tax Refund Certificate for Export Goods, you need to clarify its legal effect and related responsibilities: first, if the trade contract stipulates that the seller needs to provide the non-tax refund certificate as a necessary document for the customer's customs clearance, you need to ensure that the issuance time of the certificate meets the contract requirements. If the delay is caused by our party and leads to customer losses, we need to bear corresponding responsibilities according to the breach clause in the contract. In addition, you need to ensure the authenticity and accuracy of the certificate content.

If there is false statement or forged documents, you will face tax administrative penalties and even criminal liabilities. Meanwhile, you can add a compensation clause for document loss in the cooperation contract with the freight forwarder. If this loss is caused by the freight forwarder's document loss, you can claim compensation from the freight forwarder according to the contract to reduce the economic loss of the enterprise.

### Answer 7

If you cannot obtain the required documents for tax refund on time due to on-site customs inspection of export goods, and thus need to issue a non-tax refund certificate, you need to provide the and issued by the customs as supporting materials synchronously. When submitting the application, you need to note the time, location and result of the inspection, and explain that the reason for inability to refund tax is document delay caused by inspection. In addition, if the inspection finds that the goods do not match the declaration, you need to complete the customs rectification or tax supplementary procedures first, then apply for the non-tax refund certificate, to avoid application rejection caused by unresolved inspection abnormality. Meanwhile, you need to archive the inspection-related documents together with the non-tax refund certificate, so as to provide a complete evidence chain for subsequent tax verification.

### Answer 8

If the export goods are dangerous chemicals or dangerous goods, you need to provide additional compliant packaging-related documents when issuing the non-tax refund certificate: first, you need to submit the copy of and to prove that the packaging of the goods meets international transportation specifications. In addition, if the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) of the goods does not match the commodity information in the export declaration, you need to provide the revised MSDS and the customs confirmation receipt synchronously, to avoid the tax authority deeming the export illegal due to non-compliant packaging or MSDS, and thus rejecting the non-tax refund certificate application. Meanwhile, you need to ensure that the validity period of packaging documents matches the export date. If the packaging documents have expired, you need to re-apply for inspection before submitting the application.

### Answer 9

After issuing the Non-Tax Refund Certificate for Export Goods, you need to complete document filing strictly in accordance with the requirements of tax refund audit: first, you need to organize the non-tax refund certificate, export declaration, export invoice, purchase and sale contract, logistics voucher, collection voucher and other documents into bound volumes, keep them for no less than 10 years, to facilitate subsequent tax refund audit or special verification by the tax authority. In addition, you need to establish a special account for non-tax refund business, record certificate number, export date, cargo information, reason for non-tax refund, subsequent processing and other content to ensure four-way consistency.

If document missing or information inconsistency is found in the audit, you need to supplement and improve immediately. If it cannot be corrected, you need to submit a written explanation to the tax authority to avoid being identified as non-compliant business and triggering tax penalties. Meanwhile, you need to conduct regular self-inspection of non-tax refund business to find and correct potential compliance risks in time.

### Answer 10

After issuing the Non-Tax Refund Certificate for Export Goods, you need to carry out subsequent management in combination with supply chain planning: first, in cost accounting, you need to include the non-tax-refund input tax into the export cost of the goods, recalculate the marginal profit of the product, and adjust the subsequent pricing strategy, to avoid supply chain profit decline caused by cost accounting deviation.

In addition, if the non-tax refund is caused by document loss in the logistics link, you need to optimize the logistics document management process in the supply chain, such as introducing an electronic bill of lading system to reduce the use of paper documents and lower the risk of loss. Meanwhile, you can adjust trade terms, for example, change FOB to CIF, so that our party can control the logistics link, improve the controllability of document management, reduce non-tax refund cases caused by freight forwarder errors, and ensure supply chain stability.

If document missing or information inconsistency is found in the audit, you need to supplement and improve immediately. If it cannot be corrected, you need to submit a written explanation to the tax authority to avoid being identified as non-compliant business and triggering tax penalties.

            "text": "After issuing the Non-Tax Refund Certificate for Export Goods, you need to carry out subsequent management in combination with supply chain planning: first, in cost accounting, you need to include the non-tax-refund input tax into the export cost of the goods, recalculate the marginal profit of the product, and adjust the subsequent pricing strategy, to avoid supply chain profit decline caused by cost accounting deviation. In addition, if the non-tax refund is caused by document loss in the logistics link, you need to optimize the logistics document management process in the supply chain, such as introducing an electronic bill of lading system to reduce the use of paper documents and lower the risk of loss. Meanwhile, you can adjust trade terms, for example, change FOB to CIF, so that our party can control the logistics link, improve the controllability of document management, reduce non-tax refund cases caused by freight forwarder errors, and ensure supply chain stability.",
