On The Eve Of Tax Reform, Cross-Border Electricity Providers Have Been Enjoying Dividend Policy.

In early March this year, the General Administration of Customs revealed that in 2015, the export and import of cross-border e-commerce in China increased by 4.9 times and 16 times respectively.

And data show that in 2015, "black five" overall turnover increased by nearly 30 times over the same period, and the increase in orders was nearly 35 times.

But behind these heartening figures is the negative news of cross border electricity providers, such as fake commodities and difficult rights protection.

Worse still, the dividend policy that cross-border electricity providers are enjoying may be coming to an end. Are these market and capital favorites ready to face the brutal competition?

In July 2014, the General Administration of Customs issued successive announcements on regulatory matters relating to the entry and exit of goods and articles in cross-border e-commerce, and the announcement on adding codes of customs supervision, known as "No. 56" and "No. 57" in the industry, recognizing cross-border e-commerce from the policy level, and also endorsing the prevailing bonded mode in the industry. The move was seen as a clear regulatory framework for cross-border electricity providers.

Before the promulgation of the two documents, the opening of the "6+1" cross border electricity supplier pilot city gave preferential policies for cross-border electricity supplier taxation, that is, overseas products purchased through cross-border e-commerce channels only need to pay the postal tax, eliminating the "Customs + value-added tax + consumption tax" of general import trade.

The larger dividend policy comes from the relevant policies of the State Council executive meeting on April 28, 2015, including lowering tariffs on imported products, reforming the tax system and restoring port duty free shops. This shows the government's determination to promote consumption to return to China.

But rumor has it that the new tax reform means that the policy bonus period for cross-border electricity providers is about to end.

According to Tencent science and technology, the main contents of the new policy include: cross border electricity retail import is no longer taxed according to the postal tax, which means that the preferential tax exemption within 50 yuan will also be abolished. The personal single paction limit is 2000 yuan, the personal annual paction limit is 20 thousand yuan, the quota paction is exempted from customs duties, the import link value-added tax and the consumption tax reduction and exemption 30%, and the part exceeding the quota is taxed according to the general trade mode.

It is reported that the policy will be implemented in April 8th. Further news is that the policy may be tried first in the Guangzhou bonded area and then cover all relevant domestic issues in the first half of this year.

。

According to the insiders of cross-border e-commerce, Tencent has said that the policy has basically passed, and only a few specific figures are still under discussion.

At present, the pilot cities adopt a policy of imposition of postal tax on cross-border electricity supplier imports.

According to the type of goods, the postal tax has four tax rates of 10%, 20%, 30% and 50% respectively.

Generally speaking, the total tax rate is lower than the general trade because the postal tax is packaged in the value-added tax and customs duties in the import sector, and it can be exempted from taxation if the tax is less than 50 yuan.

However, there have been doubts about postal tax instead of customs duties and VAT.

The saying.

According to the latest cross-border electricity supplier tax collection mode, a small part of the commodity tax burden will be reduced, but the vast majority of commodities tax will increase.

For the latest cross-border electricity tax rumors, honey bud CEO

Welcome: "we are looking forward to the introduction of relevant tax laws, which means that the country is now very recognized in the field of cross-border electricity supplier."

However, there are also senior cross border electricity supplier executives who do not want to be named, who told Tencent technology that if rumors are true, they will cause damage to cross-border electricity providers. First of all, adjusting the price is positive, because the existing electricity supplier's net profit has not exceeded 10%, but the increment of value-added tax is close to 12%. Second, the electricity supplier for mother and infant and other just needed commodities is devastating, because the 12% increase will make mother and child cross-border electricity providers totally lose their price competitiveness. Finally, the consumption tax itself is also in the reform category, which may further widen the price difference between some popular products at home and abroad.

In his view, the major advantage of the cross border electricity supplier tax mode is the performance cost and the high price per unit price: "with 2000 as the quota, it can increase the customer's unit price and reduce the cost of performance. For the products with a high tax rate of 50%, due to the small proportion of the current sales, the future expectation is good, and the commodity richness will increase."

Liu Huipu, senior vice president of jumei.com, told Tencent technology that after the tax reform, the attraction of cross-border e-commerce products will be reduced.

"After the tax reform, all goods will grow at a price of 5% to 15%, which will inevitably lead to a decline in attractiveness."

Liu Huipu believes that "compared with 2016, the cross-border electricity supplier industry may enter a period of adjustment, because the 2015 cross-border electricity providers are running too fast."
