Under the requirements of"double carbon"and high-quality economic development,China's exports are facing greater environmental pressure.How to use reasonable environmental regulation policies to realize the high-quality development of trade is worthy of attention.This paper expounds and tests the impact and mechanism of environmental regulation on domestic value-added rate of China's exports from both theoretical and empirical levels.The results show that there is a nonlinear U-shaped relationship between environmental regulation and domestic value-added rate of China's exports.That is,at the initial stage of the implementation of environmental regulation policies,under the influence of cost effect,environmental regulation has obvious negative externalities on the domestic value-added rate of exports.However,with the continuation of policy effects,environmental regulation policies can force enterprises to carry out innovative activities,improve energy structure and resource allocation,and show obvious positive externalities on the domestic added value of exports.Therefore,at the national level,the government should grasp the intensity of environmental regulation and strengthen the top-level design of environmental regulation policies;at the industry level,the government should formulate differentiated policies according to the characteristics of the industry,and actively play the role of industry associations in environmental regulation;at the enterprise level,enterprises should actively take advantage of the positive externalities of environmental regulation policies to integrate into the global green technology innovation network.
