II. According to the provisions of Official Reply of the State Council on the Measures of the Customs on the Supervision and Administration of Bonded Areas, a system of recording is to be executed for the goods from bonded areas to overseas territory or vice versa; the Customs shall issue a list of recordings instead of customs declarations. And the list of recordings and other documents concerned are required in case of an application for refund by the enterprise located in bonded areas.

III. Corresponding refund rate of the export goods that are trusted for processing before exporting shall apply to the processing fee. Local administrations in charge of refund should conduct a survey of refund for the processing fee taking place after Jan 1, 1996 and overdue refunds should offset refunds that are due for other goods.
