Hai Tao New Regulation Fine Formula Milk Powder To Get Import Exemption

After April 8th, the new policy of Hai Tao was implemented in China. In the past few days, the new policy of Hai Tao began to fine tune.

After five days of operation, under the reassessment of all parties,

The new deal began to fine tune.

At 21 hours in April 13th, the Ministry of finance of the Ministry of Customs issued the "cross border e-commerce retail import commodity list" description of the relevant commodity notes (hereinafter referred to as "note notes"), clearly affirming that the current cross-border e-commerce retail import of infant formula milk powder, do not need to get the relevant product registration certificate.

This means that the formula milk powder that has fallen into the risk of the next cross-border e-commerce platform has been temporarily waived and has been in pition for nearly 2 years.

But at the same time, the regulation of "first imported cosmetics" is clearly defined as a general trade mode. However, "the next step is to strengthen the research on the above policies and improve the matching supervision measures".

The first Financial Daily reporters reported on Monday this article "Hai Tao new deal 72 hours: the formula milk powder declaration is intermittent" reported that since the start of the new deal, the vague products of formula milk powder and other notes have fallen into the predicament that regulators do not know how to supervise, enterprises do not know how to declare and consumers do not know how to choose.

This is only the first step in fine-tuning.

"First Financial Daily" from a number of close to decision-makers and industry know that, 12, senior leaders to a number of bonded areas intensive research and collection of materials, and held a joint meeting of high-level departments to determine the fine-tuning of the new deal "difficult implementation".

In the actual implementation, there will be a buffer period for the bonded Park in terms of inventory and order status.

Formula milk powder has been waiver for nearly 2 years.

Over the past few days, many businesses and practical policy enforcement departments have been worried about how to deal with vague products in the positive list of formula milk powder.

The key also lies in the commodities including formula milk, cosmetics, health products, food and so on, which is the most exuberant consumer demand in China, which accounts for a very high proportion of inventory and sales volume of various businesses.

The head of a coastal bonded area told our reporter that in the past four days, the average daily orders of the bonded area had dropped by more than 70%. On the one hand, the products with fuzzy marked products accounted for a large proportion. On the other hand, the confidence of the enterprises had been hit hard.

Other businessmen also confirmed this idea from many angles to our newspaper reporters.

In the past few days, they have explored each other through various ways (overseas warehouse direct mail and some products on the shelves), trying to balance each other's policies, maintaining flexibility and achieving a delicate balance.

At the same time, boots waiting for explanation are coming down.

Now, milk powder was first exempt, many people applauded this reporter in the middle of the night.

For "first imported cosmetics", although there are restrictions on general trade channels, "tone eased". In the future, it will also investigate and leave room for revision.

Zhao Bin, China's operation manager of cross border electricity supplier INFERNO, told our reporter that the current pition period to milk powder is very good, because in accordance with the normal process, formula milk powder can be registered for about a year and a half.

This newspaper has previously reported that since almost all the formula milk imported into China through cross border channels has not been registered by the food safety law, it means that if all policies are implemented strictly, all the products of cross border platforms are facing the next stage.

An imported cross-border electricity supplier told our reporter that on the first day of the new deal, from early morning to afternoon, all formula milk products could not be declared at all customs offices, starting around 2 p.m., sometimes declaring customs, and sometimes not declaring customs. This situation lasted until the evening.

Since April 9th, the situation has begun to improve, and formula milk has begun to declare normally, but the speed is slow.

At that time, the director of the bonded area office of a port entry exit inspection and Quarantine Bureau briefed our reporter about how to implement the policy of the blurred zone, and they also faced difficulties in the first day of the new deal.

Because if we strictly follow the remarks, we basically can not declare the customs, but before entering into the bonded warehouse, the enterprises have many new policies before entering the bonded warehouse.

In view of the difficult situation in the actual operation, the "formula milk powder" notes should be "registered in accordance with the food safety law but not registered". The Ministry of finance of the Ministry of Customs of the Ministry of Finance pointed out in the notes notes that according to the newly revised food safety law of the People's Republic of China, the formula of infant formula milk powder should be registered by the food and Drug Administration Department of the State Council.

As the formula for the management of infant formula milk powder is still in the process of formulation, at present, there is no need to obtain a formula registration certificate for infant formula milk powder imported from cross-border e-commerce.

In addition, since January 1, 2018, infant formula milk powder sold in China, including infant formula milk powder imported through cross-border e-commerce, must be obtained according to the product registration certificate.

The baby formula milk powder list will be released on the website of the State Food and drug administration.

"This has actually given the relevant businesses nearly two years of pition." Zhao Ping, a researcher at the China Council for the promotion of trade promotion, told the newspaper reporter that "there is plenty of time to go inventory. If we apply for registration from now on, we should have enough time."

However, it is important to note that the registration limit of formula milk is 9 formulations of 3 varieties of an enterprise, and can not exceed the limit.

As for the "cosmetics imported for the first time" in the cosmetic notes, the notes indicate that the regulations on the hygienic supervision and administration of cosmetics stipulate that the first imported cosmetics must be approved by the State Food and Drug Administration for approval of cosmetics (including non special purpose cosmetics for archival filing).

According to the above provisions, the cosmetics imported from retail through cross-border e-commerce in the future should be obtained according to the relevant regulations.

But added that the next step, the State Food and Drug Administration will give full consideration to the actual development of the electricity supplier, strengthen the research on the above policies, improve the supporting supervision measures, protect the rights and interests of consumers, and promote the healthy development of cross-border electricity providers.

Vague remarks stem from identifying the nature of cross-border e-commerce products.

Why would there be a vague situation of previous remarks and a series of implementation problems that followed? Many people pointed out to our reporter that this is due to the identification of the nature of goods sold by the senior B2C to cross-border electricity suppliers, that is, trade in goods or personal goods.

Shi Yaobin, Vice Minister of finance, explained at the news conference of the State Council on the day ago that the retail import of cross-border electricity providers mainly differentiated goods and goods, but in fact, it did not change the original tax policy.

In accordance with the customs regulations, postal tax is levied on goods imported by mail for personal use and within a reasonable number.

For goods, tariff and import value-added tax should be levied in the way of general trade import. If it is taxable consumer goods, it is also necessary to increase the consumption tax.

Those in the bonded zone pointed out that this led to a series of problems, because in the previous regulation, the goods in cross-border electricity suppliers were treated according to personal personal items, which was equivalent to shopping overseas.

In this case, the tax payment is made by individuals. If there is no formula milk registered in the food safety law, imported food without license can be regarded as the result of individual choice abroad.

However, if it is regarded as a general trade, there must be a complete license and other necessary procedures in accordance with the way of execution. This leads to vague annotations and consequent regulatory difficulties.

For those who are relatively high in formula milk, they are now relieved.

But for other businesses, they still have their own problems.

A number of imported B2C cross-border electric providers told our reporter that the most headache for them now is the pition period, that is, how to deal with the existing inventory in the bonded area.

Because some items are not on the front side of the list, he has to ship the goods from the mainland to overseas warehouses in Hongkong and other places at the price of 6000-8000 yuan per container.

Others are commodities that are priced at more than 2000 yuan although they are on the positive list.

Although the previous regulations have pointed out that this part of the commodity can continue to be sold in accordance with general trade tax.

However, in the actual operation process, because the regulatory departments do not have the operational process, so that businesses can pay taxes, he is now informed that only a full shelf.

"I don't want to pay taxes, but where to pay is a problem."

He told our reporter.
