Some Unclear Expressions in the Rules Sample Clauses

Some Unclear Expressions in the Rules. Through comparison with WTO Valuation Agreement, I personally find that the Customs Law and the Rules regarding the determination of Customs Value are, in principle, in conformity with WTO Valuation Agreement. Therefore, I would like to state the main improvement and changes or differences in the fields of the determination of Customs Value, by further analyzing and comparing with the old Rules regarding the Determination of Customs Value. --- From the perspective of the definition of transaction value, it is legally defined in the Customs Law and the Rules that transaction value is used as the basis for determining the dutiable value of goods for levying import Customs duty, not the “normal value” or “reference price” popularly used in the past. --- In view of factors taken into account, such as commissions, it is more clearly and tightly stated in the Rules that commissions and brokerage, except buying commission, shall be recorded for the determination of Customs value, but in the past, only sale’s commission was recorded. --- In regard to discount, it is not considered due to the fact that actual payment for the goods will be used as the basis for the determination of the Customs value, in whatever forms the discount are provided. In the past, China Customs valuation included the cash discount. --- Regarding the royalties and license fees, now the definitions have been in uniformity.

As an example of this, if they are conditions for sale of the valued goods, such as trademark or copyright, they will be recorded in the determination of Customs value. In the past, China practiced that whatever they were related to the imported goods, they were added into the price for Customs valuation. --- In view of the establishment of relationships between the buyer and the seller, Article 42 (f) of the Rules states, “One party directly or indirectly owns, controls or holds 5 percent or more of the outstanding voting stock or shares of the other party”, which is a bit different from what 4 (d) of Article 15 of the Agreement, “any person directly or indirectly owns, controls or holds 5 percent or more of the outstanding voting stock or shares of both of them”. I think the expressions of “any pers...
