The General Administration of Customs issued a notice on matters relating to the adjustment of the measures for the management of personal postal articles entering and leaving the country, which stipulates that since September 1st this year, only 50 yuan (including 50 yuan) of imported taxes can be exempt from taxation. Otherwise, the import tax will be levied in accordance with the law. Before that, the maximum duty for customs goods to be mailed is 500 yuan.

Immediately after the news broke the domestic and international

Peace of business.

Insiders said that the threshold of import tax fell to 50 yuan, which would lead to a 30% increase in the cost of purchasing online purchasing agents.

The shopkeepers of several famous international purchasing shops on Taobao online, who are contacted by our newspaper, have generally pointed out that increasing the import tax on postal packages will have a greater impact on their business.

"We estimate that more than half of the goods can't go on, the cost is too high!" the owner of the "full store" told the reporter.

Another shopkeeper, who did not want to be named, told reporters that the import tax threshold was raised to 50 yuan, which would lead to an increase of at least 30% of the purchase.

At present, most of the international purchasing products on the Internet are from the United States, Japan, Korea and other countries.

The products range from cosmetics, clothing, shoes and hats, jewelry to food and electronic products.

Moreover, most of these international purchasing products are

If the duty threshold for imports is set at 50 yuan, it covers almost all purchasing commodities.

For sellers, the increase of taxes and fees means that sellers have to find a balance between profits and costs.

According to reporters, engaged in

Most of the occupations are students who study abroad or "flying trapeze" who travel frequently.

Customers like to purchase from the website and pay for 10%~15%'s purchase fees, even though it is much cheaper than the international brand products purchased by domestic counters.

For example, Clinique's star product butter, 125ml specifications in the domestic price of 460 yuan, the purchase price of about 200 yuan; Lancome hypnotic Mascara in the domestic counters sold for 330 yuan, while the purchase price is about 160 yuan.

Purchasing price is equivalent to half of the price of domestic counters.

It is not difficult to understand why the international purchasing market is unusually hot.

Then, will the cost of the tax be passed on to consumers? There is a shopkeeper who says frankly: "the seller is doing business and making profits is the ultimate goal.

Therefore, the additional cost will inevitably be shared by consumers.

But whether consumers are willing to pay is another matter.

In any case, the increase of tax free threshold will give a heavy blow to the huge international purchasing market.
