Extended data:

According to the "Relevant Matters on Inspection and Release Standards for Luggage Carried by Inbound Passengers" promulgated by the General Administration of Customs on 20 10, if inbound resident passengers carry articles for their own use exceeding RMB 5,000, the customs will levy taxes on the articles for their own use, and fully levy taxes on the undivided articles.

The tax rates of different kinds of goods are different. According to Announcement No.2016 of the General Administration of Customs, the general tax rate is between15% and 60%.

Express delivery involves customs and commodity inspection, so the transportation and customs clearance time will be very slow. It takes 2-3 days to wait for the express order from Hong Kong after placing the order, and then review the delivery. Please note that the transportation in Hong Kong will stop every weekend, which means that if you place an order from Friday afternoon to Sunday, it may be delayed for another 2-3 days.

After the goods are sent to the domestic customs, the customs clearance and commodity inspection will be random, so it will be delayed for 5-7 days, and the domestic logistics company can receive the goods and transport them for final delivery after random inspection. Plus the domestic transportation time is 3-5 days, it will take almost 15 days to receive the goods.

People's Daily Online-General Administration of Customs: Mainland tourists do not need to pay tax when shopping in Hong Kong and Macao for less than 5,000 yuan.
