What is the foreign trade contract system?
1988 on the basis of deepening reform, the central government has implemented the foreign trade contract responsibility system. That is, according to the principle of "taking responsibility for its own profits and losses, liberalizing the economy, combining industry and trade, and implementing the agency system", the local government will cut the contract into pieces. The old government contracted the export base to the provincial government and turned over the foreign exchange quota base, the RMB subsidy base within the foreign exchange collection base and the foreign exchange quota. The practice of sharing foreign exchange, assuming sole responsibility for profits and losses and gradually implementing the agency system conditionally has brought the foreign trade management system of our province into the fourth stage, and the major reform of the foreign trade system has brought hope for further exploring the international market. After contracting by piece, local foreign trade, industry and trade import and export branches, foreign trade enterprises, etc. Will be decentralized to local management, except for the goods under the unified management of the state, the rest will be liberalized. Financially, on the premise of full tax refund for exported goods, financial subsidies are cut into pieces, foreign exchange income is retained within the base, and the -'/K sharing system is implemented for those exceeding the base. On the one hand, it broke the "big pot" system of foreign trade monopoly and self-financing; On the other hand, the close combination of foreign exchange collection and local foreign exchange use has aroused the enthusiasm of local foreign trade development. This is a fundamental strategic shift. It has created favorable conditions for the coastal areas of our province to enter the international market and promote regional economic development. Second, the new problems faced by the foreign trade contract responsibility system. As a transitional measure, the contract responsibility system is of great positive significance for accelerating the process of foreign trade system reform.
