SINGAPORE (ICIS news)--Chinese export tax rebates on plastic finished goods and furniture will be raised to 9% and 11% effective from 1 November, from the current 5%, based on a document by the Ministry of Finance received by ICIS on Wednesday.
China’s export rebates for a range of petrochemicals and finished products were reduced on 1 July last year, a move widely seen as a response to pressure to cut its trade surplus and to prevent the Chinese economy from overheating.
