Most of the enterprises are back to work today? In the third month of 2020, roll up your sleeves and work hard to understand the new rules of foreign trade that will be implemented this month!
01
Supportive policies
In order to resolve the impact of the new crown epidemic on manufacturing industry and foreign trade, a series of targeted measures have been introduced from the central government to the local government. More important are:
The latest declaration period of export tax rebate will be cancelled in 2020. According to Article 4 of the announcement of the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation on defining the value-added tax policies on the lease of state-owned agricultural land, if the taxpayer fails to declare the export tax refund (Exemption) or issue the certificate of export goods agency within the prescribed time limit, the taxpayer can apply for the export tax refund (Exemption) after receiving the tax refund (Exemption) certificate and relevant electronic information ）Tax: if the foreign exchange is not collected or cannot be collected within the prescribed time limit, the tax refund (Exemption) can be declared after the collection or cannot be collected.
Small and medium-sized micro enterprises are exempted from three social insurance for five months. At the executive meeting of the State Council held on February 18, a number of new preferential policies for enterprises were released, including phased relief of enterprise pension, unemployment, work-related injury insurance unit payment, in order to reduce the impact of the epidemic on enterprises, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, so that there will be a buffer period for enterprises to resume production. Except for Hubei, the above three fees can be exempted for small and medium-sized micro enterprises from February to June, and can be reduced by half for large enterprises from February to April; Hubei Province can be exempted for all kinds of insured enterprises from February to June. At the same time, before the end of June, the enterprise can apply for delaying the payment of housing provident fund. During this period, the provident fund loans that the employees fail to repay normally due to the impact of the epidemic will not be treated as overdue. The implementation of the above policies, taking full account of the balance of social insurance funds and other situations, can ensure that social security benefits such as pensions are paid in full and on time.
In addition, various policies such as rent reduction and subsidy have been introduced. For details, please refer to the local government website or the business department.
For more details, please refer to the collation of local support policies, Guangdong regional policies and support policies for foreign trade enterprises.
