[U.S.] Notice of End of Auto-Hold Service Due to Changes in Aggregate Taxation Standards
2022-12-01
Hello
Previously, when there were two or more applications with the same customs clearance number, only one would be shipped and the others would be sent sequentially with a time gap.
However, as the aggregate taxation 기준 changes effective November 17, even if there are two or more shipments dispatched on the same day, we will now proceed with shipping all pre-shipped items or prepaid items that have already been paid for.
1. Changes
- Aggregate taxation for two or more imported items with the same arrival date => no aggregation for taxation purposes
2. Notes
- If taxable goods purchased on the same date from the same overseas supplier are imported and cleared separately within the duty-free limit, aggregate taxation will still apply
In other words, if you purchase USD 250 worth of goods from Shopping Mall A to avoid taxes and split them into two shipments of USD 125 each, this is subject to aggregate taxation.
- The self-consumption recognition criteria remain the same.
Health functional foods: 6 bottles (HAWB/DAY), goods subject to the Radio Waves Act (1 per model), goods subject to the Electrical Appliances and Consumer Products Safety Act (1 per model)
There is no change to the allowable customs clearance quantity for other items subject to import requirements.
*Until now, if there were cases with duplicate customs clearance numbers, shipping was not performed at all. Going forward, all items will be shipped;
however, even if aggregate taxation does not occur under the self-consumption recognition criteria, there is a possibility that customs clearance itself may be affected,
so we recommend that you adjust the requested packing dates for such applications and ship them separately.
Only the tax-related policy has changed; the self-consumption recognition criteria, which determine the acceptable scope for personal use, remain the same.
Thank you.
