Studies based on.rm-level data.nd that exporters pay higher wages than non-exporters.However, there is limited evidence on how this export wage premium is shared among different types of workers.Using a unique matched employer-employee data from China, this paper examines the structure of export wage premium across skill groups, de.ned by workers.detailed education attainment.We.nd higher export wage premium for workers with higher education, and an export wage discount for the least educated workers.This implies that exporting enlarges wage inequality across skill groups.Furthermore, the export wage premium heterogeneity across skill groups is larger in high productivity exporters and in R&D intensive industries, supporting the recent theoretical trade models that emphasize the complementarity between productivity, innovation and skills in determining wage inequality between exporting and non-exporting.rms and across skill groups.
