How to choose a quality and reliable tax agent?
There are a lot of tax service providers in the market, and the price of their services varies, even greatly, so how do cross-border sellers choose a tax agent? Many sellers have already been in the pit in this regard.
1. Whether the qualifications are complete
Be sure to choose a qualified service provider. Relatively speaking, the service providers selected for SPN are licensed by Amazon and have certain guarantees in terms of quality, service level, price and compliance.
2. Sex price ratio
It is understandable that SPN service providers are more expensive than other service providers in the market. The service providers that have been selected for SPN must be taking more risks in terms of company, accountants, tax accountants, social responsibility and so on.
A small tax agency can run away in the event of a collateral tax liability, but a professional service provider cannot. Therefore, it is recommended that Chinese sellers also try to choose qualified service providers, after all, in recent years, European countries have become more and more strict on the tax management of the e-commerce industry.
3. After-sales service guarantee
