Core Viewpoint - The introduction of the "1039" market procurement trade model provides a compliant export channel for small and micro food enterprises, addressing previous challenges related to tax invoices and inspection qualifications [1][3]. Group 1: Overview of the 1039 Market Procurement Trade Model - The 1039 model is an innovative export customs declaration method launched by the General Administration of Customs, designed specifically for small and micro enterprises and individual businesses, focusing on "small batch, multiple varieties, and multiple batches" orders [3]. - Key features include purchasing goods within recognized market aggregation areas, with a single customs declaration value not exceeding $150,000, and handling export clearance at the procurement location [3]. Group 2: Core Advantages of the 1039 Model - **Tax Benefits**: The model adopts a "tax exemption without refund" policy, directly exempting value-added tax (VAT) at the export stage, thus resolving the export difficulties faced by small and micro enterprises due to the inability to obtain input invoices. For example, exporting $1 million worth of goods can save approximately 13% in VAT (around 130,000 yuan) [5]. - **Efficient Customs Clearance**: The model simplifies the declaration process, improving efficiency by approximately 40%. A single container can consolidate hundreds of types of pre-packaged foods, allowing for a "small supermarket" style of efficient customs clearance [6]. - **Flexible Fund Collection**: The model supports multiple entities for fund collection, allowing registered individual businesses to open foreign currency accounts, enabling direct payments from foreign buyers and legal transfer of funds into personal accounts, thus mitigating risks associated with traditional "buying orders" [7]. Group 3: Steps for Exporting - **Step 1: Entity Registration**: Register as an individual business in recognized pilot markets (e.g., Guangzhou Huadu Leather Market, Yiwu International Trade City) and complete the market procurement trade operator registration, typically taking 3-5 working days [8]. - **Step 2: Product Registration**: Input export product information into the "Market Procurement Trade Network Information Platform" for label review and registration, which is crucial for ensuring traceability and risk control [9]. - **Step 3: Grouping and Customs Declaration**: Engage a qualified customs broker to declare exports under the market procurement trade model, leveraging the simplified declaration advantages [10]. - **Step 4: Fund Collection and Exchange**: Foreign buyers transfer payments to the registered foreign currency account, and customs declaration documents are used to process currency exchange at the bank [11]. Group 4: Pilot Results and Future Outlook - In Guangzhou, as of October 2025, the customs authority has supervised 770 batches of exported pre-packaged foods under the market procurement trade model, with a total value of 110 million yuan, achieving a "billion-level breakthrough" within 8 months of the pilot [12]. - The implementation of the 2025 No. 17 announcement by the State Administration of Taxation has significantly reduced the viability of "buying orders," making the 1039 model a unique policy advantage for small and micro food enterprises to access compliant and convenient export channels [14].
