Handling domestic transport invoices: Domestic transport invoices are critical components of filing documents but are sometimes neglected by foreign trade enterprises.If suppliers are responsible for transporting goods to ports or terminals,foreign trade enterprises dont need to prepare domestic transport invoices.However,if enterprises handle domestic transport themselves,they must prepare these invoices.Some companies,due to using irregular transport providers or tax avoidance motives,fail to provide domestic transport invoices,potentially converting tax-rebate-eligible goods into tax-exempt-but-non-rebate goods,causing significant losses.
