Solved#Other issues#
I want to import composite materials through an agent, but I'm not quite sure what the import tax rate is. I don't know if this tax rate will differ depending on the specific types of composite materials. Additionally, what is the way to calculate the import tax rate? Is it possible to enjoy some preferential policies? I hope a professional can help me with these questions so that I can be more certain and make a cost budget in advance.

The import tax rate for composite materials through an agent may vary depending on the specific components, uses, etc. of the materials. Generally speaking, the import tariff rate for common composite materials is around 0 - 10%, and the value-added tax rate is usually 13%. For example, if the imported composite material is a plate used in the construction field, the tariff may be around 5%.
The calculation method of the import tax rate is: Tariff amount = Duty-paid price × Tariff rate; Value-added tax amount = (Duty-paid price + Tariff amount) × Value-added tax rate. The duty-paid price is generally determined based on the transaction price of the imported goods.
As for preferential policies, if the composite material comes from a country or region that has signed a preferential trade agreement with China and meets the requirements such as the origin specified in the agreement, it may enjoy a lower agreement tax rate. Enterprises can confirm this by querying relevant agreements and consulting professional agent import institutions such as Zhongshitong.
