The import goods agency is mainly responsible for assisting importers in completing the declaration and payment of relevant taxes and fees in the tax collection link. First, they will accurately classify the commodity codes according to the actual situation of the goods, as different codes correspond to different tax rates. In terms of tax calculation, it generally involves tariffs, value-added tax, etc. Tariff = Dutiable value × Tariff rate, and the dutiable value is usually determined based on the transaction value of the goods. Value-added tax = (Dutiable value + Tariff amount) × Value-added tax rate.
There are obvious differences in tax collection for different types of goods. For example, for ordinary goods and luxury goods, the tax rate for luxury goods is often higher. In addition, some countries have signed free trade agreements, and goods that meet the conditions can enjoy preferential tax rates. The import goods agency must ensure the accuracy of the declared information to avoid incorrect tax payment or delay in customs clearance due to incorrect declaration.
