How to do foreign trade through offshore companies
As a general taxpayer, trading companies need to pay VAT, and the general tax rate is 17%.

At the same time, corporate income tax shall be paid for the profit, with the tax rate of 25%.

. Therefore, it is a heavy burden for domestic registered companies to conduct foreign trade, especially in the current poor foreign trade environment.

Despite the heavy taxes, it has not stopped the entrepreneurial passion of Chinese people. At present, many SOHO people start their own businesses through the Internet and get a lot of customer resources with the help of e-commerce platforms such as EBAY and Taobao. With more and more customers, the requirements for these free entrepreneurs are getting higher and higher. Some customers hope that these partners can have the qualifications of the company as the basis of cooperation. As a SOHO professional, registering a company has a high tax cost, and it is indeed a very large expenditure to consider hiring accountants and administrative personnel. Therefore, many SOHO people often stop at the primary "individual workshop" trade mode and give up registered companies to support more business development.

Registering a company is very troublesome! In fact, this is just the thinking set of ordinary people in China Mainland, because in their impression, a registered company must be a company in China Mainland, and the only way is to go through the procedures in China Mainland. Actually, it is not! In foreign countries, in order to develop local economy, many countries and regions adopt a very loose and free economic system, and companies or individuals can easily register companies. The main countries and regions are Britain, the United States, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, BVI Islands, Seychelles Islands, Cayman Islands and other places. Different regions have different characteristics, but they all have a * * * feature: low tax cost, non-local operations do not need to pay taxes, and investors' information is highly confidential.

Hongkong, which is close to Chinese mainland, is convenient to handle related affairs, with convenient language communication and high reputation. Do not operate in the local area, do not have to pay taxes, freely choose the company name, and have less restrictions on business scope.

BVI, Cayman, Seychelles and other island countries have simple registration procedures, confidential shareholder information, no need to pay taxes locally, low operating costs and high international recognition, which are suitable for foreign trade enterprises or individuals.

Then the offshore company makes an endorsement, that is, the bill of lading is changed and the endorsement is changed to overseas customers. That is to say, the offshore company makes another set of documents for overseas buyers, including contracts, invoices and manifests, and sells the goods to users in the name of the offshore company.

Finally, the overseas guests remit the money to the offshore company account, and the offshore company will pay the purchase cost to the supplier, and the supplier will write it off, and the tax refund profit will remain in the offshore company account, but because this part of the profit is not generated locally in the offshore company, there is no need to pay tax.

If mainland suppliers do not have the right to import and export, they can complete the export in two ways. First, find a company agent with import and export rights; The second is to find the customs broker to pay for the export. The process is simple and quick. For details, please consult.
