How to Collect Tariffs "Interpretation of Customs Tax Regulations"

When traveling abroad, friends and relatives around you will always say:? Help bring French perfume, Italian bag and American macbook. Before going abroad, buy buy pulled out a lot of lists to buy. Others think it is not easy to go abroad. In order to earn back the ticket money, they prepare to store the goods at home for half a year as soon as they are bought, and then take them home with big bags and small bags. But at this time, we should pay attention to the fact that once the things brought back are redundant, we must pay customs duties. Don't be stopped by customs when we enter the country.

Therefore, it is common to see news that foreign students or tourists return to China, their purses and watches are taxed, and the tax bill is even as high as several hundred thousand yuan. Then, do you know the tax rates of various commodities? Do you know what the personal allowance is? Whether it is Haitao Xiaobai or senior purchasing, you may wish to know more about tariffs.

Interpretation of customs tax laws and regulations

Tax-free within 5000 yuan

The total tax allowance does not exceed 8000 yuan.

In 20 16, China customs introduced a new tax system, which implemented three postal taxes with tax rates of 15%, 30% and 60% respectively. You may wonder, what is postal tax? It is the abbreviation of import duty on luggage and postal articles. Whether you bring it in personally or send it back to China, you need to collect this tax.

However, we still have a certain amount of tax exemption. As long as the total value of the goods is less than 5000 yuan, the customs will give tax exemption, and the excess will be taxed. However, tobacco products, alcoholic products and 20 kinds of commodities that should be taxed according to state regulations are not fully exempt from tax, and other relevant regulations shall apply.

However, it should be noted that if the unit price of an item has exceeded 5,000 yuan, it will be taxed in full. For example, if you bring a gucci bag through the customs with a value of 1200 US dollars, which is equivalent to about 7,800 yuan, then you don't need to tax the tax-free difference of 2,800 yuan, but you need to tax the whole amount of 7,800 yuan.

In addition, China's entry and exit regulations allow us to shop in duty-free shops at ports, and on the basis of the tax exemption limit of 5,000 yuan, we will increase it by 3,000 yuan. In other words, the total tax allowance does not exceed 8000 yuan.

How much is the tax rate?

15%, 30%, 60%. Pay attention to goods with different tax rates.

Postal tax divides goods into many categories. Although you can know the specific tax rate by looking at the official classification table and duty-paid price list, you still need to know the tax rate of general commodities.

Articles subject to 15% tax rate include books, newspapers, gold and silver and their products, food, beverages, mobile phones, computers, etc. The milk powder and health products that mothers often buy belong to this file. Of course, drinks here refer to non-alcoholic drinks, and alcoholic drinks have to pay the highest tax.

Articles with a tax rate of 30%, including clothing, bags and shoes, cosmetics, cameras, watches, clocks and watches, etc. If the duty-paid price exceeds RMB 10000, it is a high-end watch and the tax rate is higher.

Articles with a tax rate of 60%, including tobacco and alcohol, high-end watches, precious stones, cosmetics, etc. Cosmetics are the most commonly bought items when people travel, sometimes more than a dozen bottles or even more. Cosmetics tax rate is divided into two parts, one part is cosmetics, and the postal tax is 60%; Part of it is skin care cleaning products, and the postal tax is 30%. Most of the creams, night creams and essences people use are 30%.

It should also be noted that electronic products are not duty-free, even one is taxed, whether it reaches 5000 yuan or not. If you want to bring a camera and computer to your relatives and friends in China, you have to pay taxes according to the regulations. If it wasn't 40% cheaper abroad, you wouldn't have to wear trousers. After paying taxes, the price is similar to that of domestic specialty stores. This is also a good reason to refuse to go back to China to buy human flesh.

Entry permit prompt

The so-called no shoes, Li will not be crowned. If you want to reduce the chance of being inspected, try not to bring more than two suitcases. If you carry three or four big suitcases by yourself, the customs will definitely be suspicious.
