It may be cheaper to buy imported cosmetics in the Mainland in the future. A few days ago, it was reported that the State Administration of Taxation is brewing to reduce tariffs on imports of certain goods, including cosmetics. Industry insiders expect that the price of domestic high-end cosmetics is expected to be reduced.
The tariff of imported cosmetics is expected to be lowered. It is reported that the State Administration of Taxation will reduce the tariffs on certain imported products, of which the products such as cosmetics and milk powder are most likely to be tax-reduced. Jiang Zengwei, vice minister of the Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China, also told the media in the near future that it is expected that from 2011, import tariffs on cosmetics may further decline.
In this regard, Professor Liu Wei, deputy dean of the School of Taxation of Central University of Finance and Economics, points out that: “The prices of three types of imported products can be reduced. The first is resources, because our country’s current shortage of resources is relatively serious; the second category is high technology. The third category is products closely related to the people and the people's livelihood, and I think what I can also look forward to is high-end luxury goods, because high-end luxury goods are currently subject to high taxes, and a cosmetic product sells for 100 yuan in foreign markets. 30% to 40%, which is 130 yuan, and if you add 30% of consumption tax on this basis, it will become 170 yuan, and then 17% of value-added tax will become 190 yuan. So we say that domestic sales The cosmetics of foreign well-known brands are about twice as expensive as those purchased in foreign countries over the same period. Therefore, if this tax is reduced, it will be a great boost to our domestic sales."
For the adjustment of import tariffs, industry experts said that lowering tariffs is also to reduce the loss of tax revenue caused by purchasing and personal transportation. This is a measure to benefit the country and the people. The high price of imported cosmetics in the Mainland is well known, so many consumers who cannot go abroad in person will turn their gaze to overseas purchasing. In the past year or two, the business of overseas purchasing has also grown quite hot. According to the 2010 China e-commerce market data monitoring report, the overseas purchasing market turnover in 2010 reached 12 billion yuan. Based on this scale and the average import tax rate of 20%, the annual tax loss will be around 2 billion yuan.
Consumers or abandon purchasing The reporter saw yesterday in major department store counters in the city that high-end cosmetics are almost monopolized by Lancome, Estee Lauder, Biotherm, Clinique, Clarins and other brands, and these products are without exception belong to foreign brands.
At the same time, there are also statistics showing that the sales volume and sales volume of foreign brand cosmetics account for about 60% and 90% of some domestic large-scale shopping malls. However, high prices make many consumers choose purchasing. The adjustment of this tariff has brought good news to these consumers. Some experts predict that after the import excise tax adjustment, the price drop of imported cosmetics will be around 30%.
White-collar king ** said that when purchasing imported cosmetics, “I basically bought cosmetics through overseas purchasing network sellers. Sometimes I also worry about fakes, but the price of shopping malls is really too expensive. After reducing tariffs, if The difference between the price of the shopping mall and the price of the purchasing service can be smaller, so I chose to go to the mall to buy it. After all, I can feel more reliable after seeing the real product, and the quality of the shopping mall is also more assured."
At the same time, some online shopping companies also said: "If the cosmetics tariff is reduced, the impact on purchasing is very high, the business will certainly be more and more difficult to do."
Taobao seller "little fish" has been engaged in cosmetics purchasing for more than a year, and when it comes to tariffs that will be reduced in the near future, the "little fish" said: "Now the purchasing of cosmetics or luxury goods is based on the earning of The price difference, like Estee Lauder's eye cream, is about 500 yuan, but if you buy from overseas, it's almost 400 yuan, and we can earn a difference of nearly 20%. But if you lower the tariff, the advantages of purchasing will be squeezed. It's up."
Domestic brands are less affected. In fact, there has been controversy over the level of tariffs. Tax reductions will provide consumers with the benefits they deserve, but many people worry that they will have a major impact on their own companies.
Liu Ye’s point of view is: “The impact on domestic products is certain, because the market itself is a competitive market. In the course of competition, the first is credit, the second is the brand, and the third is the price. If you originally Very good, there will be no quality problems, there will still be their own consumer groups."
For tax reduction, many netizens are particularly looking forward to it. A netizen said: "The tariffs on cosmetics will be reduced and the price will certainly decline. Consumers will also get more benefits."
However, there are also netizens who don't "cold." Ling ** said in an interview with reporters: "If foreign brands have reduced prices, compared with domestic brands, there is still a big price gap, so I still use domestic brands."
Statistics show that in addition to the minority domestic market, the majority of local skin care brands are concentrated in the low-end market. Therefore, it is analyzed by industry insiders that the customer groups faced by foreign brands have certain differences with similar domestic consumer goods. Even if the price of foreign brands declines, most brands will not have much impact.
