In recent years, mainland tourists have gone shopping in Hongkong.

Tourism

One of the important supports, and the formation of such a situation is largely due to Hongkong's tax exemption policy.

In September 1st, in order to crack down on illegal smuggling, the General Administration of Customs promulgated and issued the "54 order", which stipulates that the use of luggage exceeds HK $5000, and that the total amount of 20 commodities, including cameras, microcomputers and furniture, should be paid.

The iPad products are selling well because of the classification problem and up to 1000 yuan.

Import duty

Become the focus of discussion.

Many consumers believe that the purchase of iPad products in Hongkong is now only 3000 yuan. But when the tax base was set up, why did the price increase to 5000 yuan. The commerce department also said that the iPad was classified as a computer product, and 20% of the import tax rate was obviously too high, which did not conform to the WTO regulations.

The dispute about buying iPad is not over yet.

20 additional commodities have to be taxed in full.

This greatly affects the enthusiasm of mainland tourists for shopping.

The same is also the impact of the mainland purchasing industry, a netizen who often buys cosmetics by buying cosmetics. Last week, the cosmetics she bought were examined by customs to pay taxes, and many purchasing websites lost a lot of customers.

Moreover, even duty-free shops can not escape the fate of being taxed.

Many people in the mainland duty-free shops to buy goods, customs clearance is still counted at 5000 yuan.

The largest number of visitors can only buy 5000 yuan, including two cigarettes and 100 cigars.
