Above  transaction  has been  included in Schedule III  of the  CGST amendment   Act  2018  W.E.F  1/2/2019  ."  Transaction neither supply of Goods nor service "  . I think you have take registration under GST  , please confirm regarding registration . 

1. In my view schedule III will attract when the goods supplied from China to US belongs to X.

2. In case X is working on commission basis he will fall under definition of Intermediary. (Refer sec. 2(13) of IGST Act 2017 for intermediary definition.)

3. As per sec. 13(8) of IGST Act 2017 place of supply in case of intermediary service is location of supplier. so this translation will not be treated as export and CGST and SGST payable on the transaction.

4. In case turnover of X exceeds 20 lakh, registartion under GST is mandatory. (Sec. 22 of CGST Act 2017.)
