Volza not working anymore

I have been using volza for the last 3-4 months, but since last 30-40 days data is no longer visible for any company. Their support team says this is due to updated government guidelines that they are not able to share the data and they are actively working to resolve this.

Does anyone have any more information on this, will it get resolved or the government has restricted such data sharing?

Hey everyone,

I'm importing industrial products from China to India and had a question about Chinese VAT.

If I place an order on **FOB terms**, do I still have to pay VAT in China on the FOB value? Or are export orders typically zero-rated / VAT-exempt from the supplier side?

Some suppliers quote FOB prices without mentioning VAT separately, while others bring it up during negotiation, so I'm a bit confused about how it actually works in practice.

Would really appreciate if someone who has experience could clarify:

- Do I have to pay VAT on FOB prices, if yes what value?

- Do exporters get VAT refunds internally, or does it affect my pricing?

- Anything I should be careful about while negotiating on FOB prices?

- Any other tax I should be aware of, since I cannot mals changes after the negotiations are done.

Thanks in advance!
