With the appreciation of the renminbi and rising domestic prices, “overseas purchase” is gradually becoming the focus of domestic consumers. However, the new policy implemented by the Customs yesterday has caused netizens' enthusiasm for “haitao” to be poured into cold water. The new customs regulations have made it impossible for most of the transshipment company services that use foreign express delivery to pass through postal services to continue normal operations.

The New Deal of the Customs was stopped for "sea purchase" to stop the dishes?

According to news from the courier company, the Customs implemented a new policy from yesterday, and all overseas express companies use EMS to send parcels for customs clearance, and they must not go through customs clearance for inbound postal items. Only the postal companies that use the other country’s postal companies to contract through the postal network may use the parcels that are submitted in accordance with the regulations of the UPU and sent to China Post on the mainland.

The reality is that the current Chinese people purchase goods on foreign shopping websites and often post them through foreign transshipment companies. Most of the transshipment companies use EMS clearance in China. The New Deal means that most of the transhipment company's business will not be able to proceed normally.

"Thoroughly, my milk powder has not yet been sent from the United States!" "Isn't the clothes I bought from the American Golden Baby website not receive?" After learning of the news, many netizens were extremely anxious to negotiate with foreign forwarding companies.

Bailey Express, which provides shipments for Chinese customers in the United States, yesterday issued an "emergency notice on the suspension of shipments," stating that it received notice from the higher authorities that due to the need for Tianjin Customs to cooperate with the General Administration of Customs, the US warehouses will be required to stop shipping until now. In mid-April.

Cost increase courier fees also play a lot of price increase in the United States, overseas purchasing staff in China have a feeling, the cost of overseas purchasing has plummeted. “I just bought some milk powder at Baitong Company and I didn’t release it. Is it cancelled or canceled?”

Lida Express issued an apology statement stating that due to the latest adjustment of China’s customs policy, shipments to the mainland China could not be shipped temporarily. At present, they are looking for a transportation company that meets the customs B to C import policy and is expected to complete it in the next 2-4 weeks.

At the same time, U.S. friendly express delivery also announced that due to rising costs, the freight rate will be adjusted from 28th onwards, from the original RMB 26 per pound to the first pound of RMB 52 and the pound of RMB 26.

Overseas Shopping Process Outsourcing is a DIY form of self-service overseas shopping. It does not rely on purchasing businesses, but instead ships through third-party overseas transshipment companies to reduce taxes and reduce shipping costs. The main processes are as follows:

The first step: through the foreign transshipment company for shipping, first register at the relevant transshipment company's website and obtain the mailed overseas address.

The second step: shopping through foreign websites.

The third step: Pick up the goods through the transshipment company's overseas address and forward it to China.

The fourth step: Customs clearance and delivery to consumers, the risk is lower and cheaper than purchasing businesses. At present, the New Deal mainly affects the fourth step.

On the same day as the new rules for taxation of imported goods, the General Administration of Customs issued the No. 15 of 2012, revising the “Classification of Entry Items of the People’s Republic of China” and the “Private Tax Price Table of the People’s Republic of China on Entry”, since It will be implemented on April 15, 2012.

The duty-paid price list details the tax rates and duty-paid prices of various commodities. For example, a cosmetics tax rate of 50%, a bottle worth more than 100 yuan facial cleanser will be taxed, 20 yuan a mask also have to pay taxes. For wallets over 100 yuan, the tax rate is 10% for bags over 200 yuan.

In addition, the "Hai Tao," a popular product of milk powder, will pay 10% of taxes when it is over 200 yuan. This policy also writes the 10% tax rate for electronic products on the duty-paid price list.

It can be seen that the Customs adjusted this time to further refine the details of the commodities. The scope of the taxation covers almost all commodities, showing the country’s determination to monitor the increasingly popular Haitao.

Industry insiders said that based on the above two policies, it can be seen that after a long period of unregulated growth, Haitao’s cake has now been formally supervised by the state and has become a regular channel.

Some electronic products tax adjustment is good fortunately, some electronic products have changed duty-paying prices, such as the camera from the original 200w pixel 10000 yuan × 10% = 1000 yuan to 4,000 pixels without pixels × 10% = 400 Yuan, the projector was reduced from 15,000 yuan x 10% = 1,500 yuan to 5,000 yuan x 10% = 500 yuan.

In addition, if the gap between the duty-paid price and the actual price exceeds 2 times (previously 3 times), you can apply for determining the tax-deductible price based on the purchase certificate, which should be regarded as an adjustment that keeps pace with the times.
