expert's point

Bai Ming, Deputy Director, Institute of International Markets, Ministry of Commerce


Accelerating export tax rebates is conducive to alleviating the huge external pressure of foreign trade enterprises. The export tax rebate is completely different in nature from the subsidy. The latter is not conducive to fair competition in the market, and the export tax rebate is to avoid double taxation. This is the requirement of fair competition. Compared with some products being subject to countervailing duties, China can completely reduce the burden on foreign trade enterprises through export tax rebates. China's export tax rebate level is constantly improving, and the current low-end tax rebates are becoming less and less. Appropriate reduction of tax refund files is a requirement for trade facilitation.

Director of International Trade Research Department, China Council for the Promotion of International Trade


Increasing the current export tax rebate rate will make the tax burden of Chinese enterprises in the international market competition close to other countries. In fact, many countries implement export tax rebate policies to promote export growth, but the tax rebate rate is different in different countries. Some countries actively encourage exports. For the export tax rebate rate, the policy of how much is refunded, but China’s export tax rebate The rate is generally lower than the export value-added tax and consumption tax rate, so this increase in export tax rebate rate will make China's export tax rebate rate is close to the export tax rebate rate of many countries.

The most direct purpose of raising the export tax rebate rate is to reduce the burden on enterprises, and at the same time meet the policy orientation of China's tax reform after the "reform of the camp." Export tax rebate is a tax system that refunds indirect taxes such as value-added tax and consumption tax already paid by enterprises to export enterprises. For exporting companies, the main refund is the value-added tax already paid. Especially in the context of increasing global trade protectionism, it can help companies improve their ability to cope with external environmental shocks.

Export tax rebates are an international practice and almost all countries have export tax rebates. Compared with other countries, China started late in export tax rebates, and its implementation was not smooth. China’s export tax rebate began in 1985. At that time, due to the taxation of China’s circulation links, the more high-value-added products were taxed more, which damaged the competitiveness of products, and the export tax rebate was conducive to solving this problem.


However, although the current value-added tax in China has been reduced from 17% to 16%, the export tax rebate rate for many commodities is 13%, 9% or even lower. The reason is that the resistance of the financial sector is much higher. It is almost normal to get less, and there is a lot of room to increase the export tax rebate rate. Since the Sino-US trade war, China has faced unprecedented severe external challenges. Improving export tax rebates is an effective means to deal with this challenge.
