Many white collars on early vacation began to take a variety of travel information from their friends, and zhu is rushing to brush the circle of friends, and she is not really looking for friends to go to hong kong or europe to bring milk for her three-month-old child。
In order to provide the baby with sufficient milk sources, in august zhou zhou contacted a substitute shop in the netherlands, where she was promised to go to the local supermarket on the same day and deliver within a week, but had been detained by customs for nearly a month because of a total of six cans of milk powder ordered by zhu zhou。
Newly born babies drink one can of milk powder every week, and they lose all their food。
It's almost every mother in 80 years who's going to go after her. In fact, neither out-of-country shopping nor online fishing is taxable。
According to the analysis of cross-border electricians survey 2014 published by the china research centre for electronic commerce, it is expected that by 2018, china will have 35. 6 million people fishing and 1 trillion yuan in size。
The national day holiday is not far away, and it will be followed by the “twilight 11”, the correct “opening method” for you in shanghai。
Entry tax exemption unchanged
In recent days, there have been reports on the internet that passengers have entered from shanghai pudong airport and that their luggage is subject to security checks on a case-by-case basis
In fact, there has been no change in customs policy regarding the purchase of personal imported goods outside the borders of residents. In response to these rumours, the shanghai customs service has stated that it is currently strengthening its postal control in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations and that no “new deal” has been introduced, and that any new policy changes are subject to the general customs bulletin。
How are taxes paid for goods purchased from abroad? On 30 august 2010, the general customs administration issued the standard for the certification of luggages with passengers in the territory, which is focused on “taxes over $5,000 for personal baggage and full taxes for 20 commodities”. Customs have been in operation since 1 september 2010。
The total value of purchases of personal imported goods outside the country does not exceed $5,000, and customs is exempt from duty. However, if you carry personal imported goods worth more than 5,000 yuan, which are self-used after customs clearance, the customs authorities tax only the excess, but the undivided individual item in full。
In addition, in cases where a resident outside china carries goods intended for personal use in china, in excess of rmb 2,000, the customs authorities tax only those goods imported for personal use in excess of that amount, and the entire amount is taxed in respect of undivided individual items。
Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the following: limit, self-use, reasonable quantity of items to be bought from a tourist。
Journalists in the 1st financial journal learn from a business that buys on behalf of abroad that some of those who buy off abroad often do so on official or personal grounds, are manually cleared, similar to individuals who buy on their own, and would not be required to pay taxes if within the prescribed limits, but would be required to pay taxes in excess of the limits。
A white collar who once bought milk powder for a friend in germany told the newspaper's reporter that, because her boss had just added a new one to her home, she would bring milk powder to her boss every time she visited her family in germany, and that it would be cheaper for the boss to cover the cost of shipping the powder than a 10 per cent plus 17 per cent vat on domestic import duties。
Why would a large number of items require subcontracting
It is much easier to move through a cross-border power provider than to buy it from abroad。
With regard to cross-border electrician taxes, at a press conference earlier this year, the deputy director of customs, lupe, explained in detail。
Specifically, b2b (business-to-business, business-to-business) commodities, commonly referred to as business-to-business goods, are now regulated, taxed and incorporated into customs trade statistics by cross-border electric operators。
Customs now regulates the taxation of goods imported by cross-border electric operators belonging to b2c (businss-to-customers, merchant-to-client) and whose goods are under $1,000。
The so-called postage tax is the abbreviation of import duties on baggage and postal goods. It is an import tax levied by customs on incoming passengers' baggage and postal goods. It is a combined tax that includes customs duties and value-added tax and excise tax on imports。
The general customs bulletin, no. 43 of 2010, on the regulation of personal postal goods in transit and out of the country, is the tax guidance document for current importers of cross-border electric appliances, which makes it clear that the term “mail” in cross-border electronics is used to refer to goods that are mailed abroad and not to goods that are carried by passengers at the time of entry。
According to this document, import duties are levied by the customs service for the purpose of sending personal goods into the country, but the customs service exempts any person whose import duties are less than 50 yuan (including 50 yuan)。
In addition, goods from or to the hong kong, austro-taiwan and taiwan areas are limited to rmb 800 each; goods from or to other countries and regions are limited to rmb 1,000 each。
This is the case where the sea peddlers are advised to pack separately, because if the parcel exceeds the prescribed limit, it will be subject to a check-out or customs clearance as required by the goods, the tax charges will be significantly higher at once。
Cross-border electrician tax rate in four
Tax rates are also of concern to sea-drivers. According to the above-mentioned documents, the rates for the issuance of postage taxes vary from one commodity to another, with current rates of 10 per cent, 20 per cent, 30 per cent and 50 per cent in the fourth tranche. For example, 10 per cent for milk powdered foods and silver jewellery, books, computers, photography (likes), 20 per cent for clockwatches, clothing, etc., 30 per cent for high-end watches (priced over $10,000), golf tools, and 50 per cent for alcohol, tobacco, cosmetics, etc。
Assuming a commodity price of $490 through a cross-border e-commerce website, combined with an international freight cost of $530, this is the tax-exempt price set by customs, assuming that the commodity adjusts to the 10 per cent tax rate, then the final tax is $53, which exceeds the tax exemption of $50 and is therefore subject to taxation. If a commodity is taxed for less than $50, it is exempt。
In the case of milk powder, according to the table of tax exempt prices for imported goods of the people's republic of china, the tax price for milk powder is 200 yuan/kg at 10 per cent. Exhaustion of taxes is defined as the price determined by the assessment of goods imported and exported by the customs in accordance with the relevant provisions, which is the basis for customs duties. In other words, whatever the price you buy abroad, the price is $200 per kilogram of milk powder at 10 per cent, or $20 per kilogram of milk powder. As a result of the above-mentioned corresponding import duty tax exemption of less than $50, i. E., less than 2. 5 kg of milk powder。
One of the world's buyers, wang bo (alias), told the newspaper newspaper first financial journal that most of the overseas purchases would be made at local supermarkets or pharmacies upon receipt of an order and would then be sent directly to dhl, ups, fedex, tnt, ems to the country for post clearance。
Global buyers like wang bo are generally not willing to declare customs, and since customs do not check boxes, such shopkeepers are betting on a probability, but once detained, shipped back, confiscated, the date of receipt by consumers is postponed indefinitely。
The owner of a fishing shop, lin li (alias), who is very smart, hired a hong kong professional customs clearing company to provide a trans-shipment service for milk powdered baby food supplies, all of which were trans-shipped into hong kong after contacting the global buyers。
Because lin li's business is doing a great deal, the cost is not too high for each product, which also makes it possible for many more of lin li's shop owners to survive。
Journalist lin chiu (alias), head of a cross-border electrician enterprise in shenzhen, was also informed that shenzhen, following a pilot import cross-border trade, had introduced taxes on four categories of commodities, including cosmetics, health care, clothing and mother-and-child goods, all of which were packaged into a single tax, generally between 10 and 15 per cent. Even for cosmetics, the original rate was 50 per cent, and the rate was only around 10 per cent。
