2009/2/19 17:31:00 41982

The term of declaration refers to the time when the goods are delivered to the port, and the consignee or his agent is required to declare the Customs at the customs.

According to the provisions of China's customs law, the time limit for declaration of imported goods shall be declared to the Customs by the consignee or his agent within 14 days from the date when the means of pport are declared into the territory.

The starting date for the delay in payment of imported goods is the fifteenth day when the means of pport are declared into the territory, and the delay in payment of goods imported into the postal service is fifteenth days from the date when the addressee receives the notice from the post office.

In addition, there are two recovery periods for pferring goods into the imported goods: first, fifteenth days from the date of entry of the means of pport, and two days from the date when the goods are pported until the date of shipment.

The object of the delay payment is the consignee or its agent of the imported goods.

The amount of the daily levy is 0.5% of the CIF value of the imported goods, and the starting point is RMB 10 yuan.

It should be noted that the CIF price for imported goods is the normal CIF approved by the customs, which is priced in foreign currency.

On the day of collection of the delay in payment, the customs shall convert the intermediate price of the foreign exchange quotation into Renminbi.

The delay in payment is a kind of fee arising from the declaration of customs duties by the consignee or his agent over the statutory time limit, not a fine. The receipt for the delayed receipt of the customs is not a penalty notice.

The customs stipulates that the time limit for declaration and collection of delay payment is to make use of administrative means and economic means to prompt the declaration of imported goods, speed up port pportation, and import goods into production and use at an early date.
