Policy Background: The Logic Behind Export Tax Rebate Adjustments<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Export tax rebates have long been an important policy tool used by the Chinese government to support foreign trade and enhance the international competitiveness of Chinese manufacturers. For many years, the 9% export tax rebate played a key role in helping Chinese battery manufacturers establish strong cost-performance advantages in global markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, with changes in the global economic environment, China\u2019s industrial policy shifting toward high-quality development, and increasing constraints related to energy consumption and environmental protection, the gradual reduction\u2014and eventual cancellation\u2014of export tax rebates has become an inevitable trend. The phased adjustment from <strong>9% \u2192 6% \u2192 0%<\/strong>&nbsp;represents a structural shift that will have a tangible impact on export-driven battery manufacturers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>II.
