If I want to buy a watch when I travel to America, do I have to pay customs duty?

When you buy a watch abroad and return to China, you generally don't have to pay taxes.

According to Announcement No.43, Classification Table of Import Tax Tariff for Luggage and Personal Postal Articles of Inbound Passengers and Duty-paid Price List for Luggage and Personal Postal Articles of Inbound Passengers, the limit of personal articles imported from abroad is 1 000 RMB, and all articles exceeding 1 000 RMB are declared as ordinary goods. The customs that belong to personal postal articles only levy personal postal articles tax, with the tax rate of 30% for high-grade watches (value 10000 RMB) and 20% for low-grade watches (value 10000 RMB).

However, when entering the country, the number of this little thing was only one. You said the inspector would tell you when and where you bought it. If you bring dozens of watches, you have to pay taxes.
