Shenzhen's cross-border e-commerce enterprises are set to benefit from a major upgrade to the city's online comprehensive service platform. The enhanced "no-invoice tax exemption" registration module will allow businesses to conveniently access national policy benefits without leaving their offices.
The upgrade, scheduled to launch on February 1, 2026, aims to implement national tax policies for retail export goods while addressing the specific needs of Shenzhen's thriving cross-border e-commerce sector. The fully digitalized system will eliminate cumbersome paper-based procedures.
Key Improvements
- End-to-end digital processing: Businesses can complete all procedures online through the platform, removing the need for physical submissions.
- Flexible registration scheduling: Companies may schedule registrations at least two natural days after customs clearance, with data confirmation becoming available on the third day (T+2) following the appointment.
- Clear operational guidance: The platform provides detailed step-by-step instructions to ensure smooth registration processes.
Implementation Notes
Authorities recommend scheduling registrations during off-peak hours to ensure optimal system performance. Businesses are advised to complete procedures directly through the official platform, as the municipal commerce bureau has not authorized any third-party agencies to handle registrations.
This initiative represents Shenzhen's latest effort to improve its business environment and support the growth of cross-border e-commerce. The streamlined process is expected to enhance corporate competitiveness and contribute to the sector's expansion in the region.
