Double clearing tax is a good supplement to traditional logistics.


First: for small goods, its cost advantage is obvious;


Second: for foreign countries do not have import rights, or want to avoid taxes, or e-commerce sellers, the emergence of this way, is simply a blessing;


Third: simplify the process, the consignees as long as the goods can be received, customs clearance tax, tax refund what are saved, for small importers or individual buyers, this is simply too convenient.


However, in some cases, this may not be the right choice. Therefore, before you choose this mode of shipment for customers, you must understand clearly, so as not to bring trouble later.


1. The foreign consignee needs to pay VAT, and the destination needs tax refund


In many cases, looking at the cost alone, sometimes double package tax to the door is indeed cheaper than the traditional DDU+ tax, but some consignee, do need formal declaration, as well as the need for tax form, destination tax refund. If you do not explain the difference between this channel and the traditional channel when you arrange the shipment for the customer, but choose this double tax clearance method for the customer, then it may cause some trouble to the consignees in the future.

2. The value is very high


For the compensation problem of double clearing tax channel, please confirm with freight forwarders in advance before shipment, especially for high-value products. Once encountered special reasons can not be clear, or be confiscated and so on. General freight forwarders pay 2-3 times the freight is more, of course, there can be according to the value of the goods to pay, so, it is suggested to choose freight forwarders, must take these factors into account. Don't just think about the cheapest shipping. So as not to leave a big hidden danger.


3. High requirements on limitation


All the double clearance channels are unified collection of goods, according to the situation of freight forwarders, unified arrangement of which route, where to ship, unified customs clearance, and then unified delivery to the overseas warehouse there, and then unified arrangement of appointment UPS/DPD or truck delivery, so, in these links, not because you a single ticket of goods, for you to make a special appointment, To make arrangements. You are in a hurry, you can only wait. In addition, the goods of double clearance, because the goods are relatively miscellaneous, some freight forwarding companies may also entrain some sensitive goods, if there is any problem in foreign inspection, it may take a long time to deal with. In this case, it can only be handled by the freight forwarder. Therefore, the controllability of time will be worse than the traditional logistics separate customs clearance, separate delivery will be worse.


4. The goods may need the help of the warehouse at the destination port for re-sorting, labeling or other special operations


Double clear package tax channel, many times a ticket of goods, the middle may have passed through layers of agents. If your goods need the warehouse to do some special operations, it will be very troublesome and difficult to cooperate. Even if I reluctantly agree to do it for you, the agent may charge more expensive and the time required will be longer.

5. It may need to be returned or repaired or exhibition in the future


In this case, resolutely can not go double clear package tax channel. Double clearance tax, usually there is no complete bill of lading documents to you, foreign countries also have no consignees import clearance records, if the subsequent goods have problems need to be returned, in order to avoid import tariffs, domestic is the need to go special return customs clearance import (non-general trade), to be transported to foreign countries, foreign countries also need to be imported through special repair customs clearance. When declaring to the customs, no matter domestic or foreign, it is necessary to provide relevant import and export declaration documents and bill of lading documents.


There is also a case, if your exhibits in the foreign exhibition, but also need to be transported back to China, especially the value of goods is relatively high, then must not be exported through double clearance tax. Don't just look at how cheap it is to export, but consider the cost of re-importing. Exhibits transportation can generally find a special exhibits transportation company, through ATA customs declaration.


Therefore, in the choice of logistics transportation mode, multi-angle reference. Choose the mode of transportation that suits your situation. Especially for big customers, or customers who are important to you, if you do not arrange them well, it may cause a very bad impression and affect cooperation.
