China is considering further raising textile export tax rebate due to the slow down in textile and garment exports from the country and the increase in RMB exchange rate in the last few months, governmental officials said on Monday.
Industry officials said that the textile industry called for the Government to increase drawback rate of value-added tax from current 13 percent to 15-17 percent.
In July this year, the Chinese government had raised export tax rebate rate by 2 percent, but it could not stop the slowdown in export growth. In the first 8 months of this year, textile exports increased by only 9.3 percent, while the growth was 19.3 percent in the same period last year.
Ma Zhanping, deputy director from the Economy & Trade Office of the State Development and Reform Commission, said, the Government is considering taking more measures in supporting textile industry, and helping the industry to tide over its difficulties.
One of the measures under consideration of government is of raising export tax rebates.
