　　 Since September, consumers who like to buy luxury goods, milk powder and cosmetics from overseas have to pay more. Recently, the State Administration of Customs has issued a new policy. Since September 1st, the purchase of goods purchased by mail order will face a higher tariff threshold. This means that the purchasing cost of sellers engaged in overseas purchasing business will be greatly increased.

Overseas purchasing from September tariff Large margin Promote

The General Administration of Customs recently issued the relevant regulations on adjusting the management measures of personal mail items in and out of the country.

According to the regulations, the personal allowance for personal belongings originally sent or sent to Hong Kong and Macao is 400 yuan, and the personal allowance for personal belongings other than other regions is 500 yuan. The new policy implemented in September 1st will reduce the tax allowance threshold to 50 yuan, which means that mail order purchases will be subject to higher tariffs.

　　 New policy What kind of impact will it bring?

A network seller specializing in the purchase of imported cosmetics has calculated an account. For example, a Estee Lauder cream is priced at 1300 yuan in the United States, and the amount of exemption is calculated according to the 50% tax rate. Only 150 yuan will be imported before September, but 600 yuan will be paid from September, which means that the purchasing cost will be greatly increased. Imported cosmetics purchased from abroad are 1/3 cheaper than domestic counters, and this price advantage will be greatly reduced in September.

A seller who specializes in the purchase of Holland milk powder on Taobao told reporters that according to the standards of the new deal, from September, more than two barrels of foreign milk powder would be taxed and more than 5 barrels would not be mailed again.

Just because of the transportation cost, the purchasing price has risen by 30 yuan per barrel, which does not include the tax risk that will be faced.

　　 Sellers are busy stockpiling goods, and buyers are buying before prices rise.

"I suggest you buy a box first. It's not easy to tell the price later. Now many customers are stockpiling goods." Most reporters urge reporters to buy milk powder for their children.

They say that not only customers are stockpiling goods, but even they are stockpiling goods.

Taobao, a full-time shopkeeper who purchases overseas luxury goods, told reporters that the price increase is inevitable. After all, the cost of purchasing agent has been raised, but the price will rise much. In the last two days, there are a lot of orders, such as the Prada lady's sheepskin purse, which sells for 4000 yuan. In the past, she had received four or five bills each month. Yesterday, she received 6 bills. Customers said they were worried that they would increase their prices in September and bought them in advance. "We are also stockpiling goods, hoarding goods from various sources, and hoarding up how much we can store." The online name is "scallion" purchasing shop owner. They mainly buy overseas brands such as cosmetics, perfume, milk powder and so on. In the past, they adopted large format mail, because they were purchased in large quantities, and they had advantages in freight rates, and the price was very competitive. Now, apart from buying a lot of goods, they also asked frequent entry and exit individuals to help bring goods into customs to reduce costs.

　　 ? overseas purchasing industry will end the era of profiteering.

Fang Yingzhi, an analyst at the China Electronic Commerce Research Center, said that at present, overseas purchasing can be divided into several categories. The first category is that individuals go abroad to purchase or purchase professional products to buy targeted goods overseas, and then carry them back to the country to carry out their business. The second category is that personal sellers sell mail through overseas shopping sites to the mainland, and then buy on behalf of them. The third category is that overseas sellers are buying home buyers through their own environmental advantages, and then mailing them to buyers. It can be found that the latter two categories need to be mailed, so the new tariff policy has a greater impact on the latter two categories of sellers.

Previously, sellers who had engaged in overseas purchasing by mail channels would end the era of profiteering. Buyers' experience of sending cheap foreign goods by purchasing them would also be a thing of the past.

Some overseas shopkeepers said that there was no advantage for the flight attendants, seamen, and other public servants to travel home and abroad to make purchases by mail.
