How to start an import and export trading company?

1. If you do import and export yourself, you need to apply for import and export rights, with a registered capital of more than 500,000 yuan, or use a foreign trade agent. Many of the goods you listed need to be inspected, so let the manufacturers do the inspection in advance or buy them in the market;

2. To find a shipping company, it is more appropriate to find a freight forwarding company first. The method is the way of supplier management, learn more, and then review.

3, tax avoidance, it's not good for everyone to talk too much. I'd better talk about tax refund. The goods purchased for export must have VAT stamp, otherwise the export can't be refunded. Then check the tax refund rate of the goods on the website of the Ministry of Commerce, and the qualified export procedures can be refunded after receiving foreign exchange.

4, policy risk, I think the problem should be trade risk, trade risk includes policy risk. Because it is difficult to recover in international trade, we should be very cautious when choosing trade terms, pay close attention to the issue of account period, or adopt trade methods such as letter of credit, pre-telegraphic transfer and D/P; Pay attention to the relationship between trading countries and China. If you want to sell food with short shelf life to the Philippines, you should pay great attention to the relationship between the Philippines and China, otherwise a customs inspection will make your food expire.

5. Early investment, including commodity investment, site investment and personnel investment, is similar to domestic trade, but some liquidity should be prepared to guard against risks such as foreign exchange problems, trade problems and shipping problems. It's better for you to calculate the specific amount yourself than to pat me on the head and say it.

6. Preferential policies for rational utilization of domestic and foreign-funded enterprises; For example, the laid-off workers' policy and the disabled people's policy, which are encouraged by the state and affiliated to schools, can pay less taxes on enterprises, and the equity transfer is distributed first and then transferred. The specific investment amount should be considered comprehensively, because there are many industries and other factors in import and export.

In short, with experience and professional knowledge, you will be closer to the result! !
