Question:
Currently, many banana growers in Trang Bom, Dong Nai want to sell goods to Chinese businesses but they do not have legal entities and can not put their names on the customs declaration. Therefore, they contacted us to hire us to export to them. However, after investigating the legal documents, we did not see any specific legal documents on this and we are not sure how to be able to register for export. These farmers because: 1. We cannot make trust contracts and make trust statements because people who deal with us are individuals. 2. If we are named in the declaration as the exporter, then it is borne that the money not paid through our account is because Chinese businessmen deal directly with farmers, do not transfer money through accounts. we. So, what will our unpaid return be later? Tax obligations will be like?
