This does depend on the bank's understanding of the exemption. Interestingly, I've had a harder time getting foreign banks to do this; UOB and Standard Chartered would often refuse me even the 500 (Chinese New Year money received back when I was a student = no tax paid and nothing to show at the bank) but ICBC and BOC were fine doing it.

There should be no issues re: this... 200k CNY is around <28k USD. Not sure if the daily limit is an issue though...
