What is the difference between import and export goods and inbound and outbound goods?

1. The former refers to the goods that enter and exit the customs for sale, that is, the goods sold abroad for sale, or the goods sold domestically, while the latter refers to the items that are also in and out of the customs, but not for sale, such as the performance props carried by the performance group with the troupe, the equipment used to participate in the exhibition, etc.

2. Because the former is a commodity sold or purchased, it has corresponding foreign exchange income or expenditure; The latter, on the other hand, has no foreign exchange income or expenditure because it is not a commodity sold.

3. The former import is subject to customs duties and value-added tax; The latter are not subject to customs duties and VAT (although a security deposit is paid.

However, the deposit will be refunded after the customs clearance).
