Do you buy goods from overseas?
Maybe you use online stores to shop for consumer items like books, jewellery, clothes, and toys? If the stores you shop at are overseas based you are most likely importing the goods.
From July, the New Zealand Customs Service will begin applying an import transaction fee (ITF) of $24.75 ($22 plus GST) to a range of personal imports that attract GST and import duty.
Generally the ITF will apply to goods valued over $400 but at times packages valued at less than $400 will attract the fee.
The fee will apply to all import items such as jewellery, clothing and electrical appliances.
A MAF Biosecurity system entry levy (BSEL) of $12.50 (including GST) will also be charged whenever an ITF is applied.
Customs says these import transaction fees are applied to cover the time and costs associated with processing imports and are used to fund border risk management activities. 作者: Ardell假睫毛 时间: 2010-6-15 16:46:50
