Overseas shopping duty free warehouse, duty free warehouse and bonded warehouse

The commodity tax in the United States is not directly included in the price like China, but the tax is calculated after the ** is marked, and then the list price + tax is calculated to calculate the total price, so of course, it will be cheaper to buy things in a tax-free state and a state with a higher tax is sometimes as much as 10%.

The consumption tax in the United States is set by each state**, so the taxes and fees in each state are different, some are relatively high (10%+, California, New York, and Washington are quite high), some are relatively low (may be less than 6%), some states do not collect taxes (such as Hawaii, Delaware, Montana, etc.), and some states are tax-free by category (such as New York State is tax-free for clothing products with a unit price of less than $180). So there will be tax-exempt states and non-tax-free states.

Not all brands in non-tax-exempt states are exempt from tax, as long as the state does not have a store for the brand (purchased on the brand**) or does not have a department store (purchased on the department store's website), then the item is not taxable. However, generally overseas shopping warehouses are in New York or California, and basically any brand and department store have stores in these two states, so they are basically exempt from taxes. above

If some states in the United States still need to pay excise tax, the warehouse is in a tax-free state, which is called a tax-free warehouse. For example, if you buy a pair of pants on Amazon, you may have to pay 2% excise tax on shipping to New York, and you can ship them to Detroit or New Jersey tax-free.

Because duty-free warehouses do not charge excise tax, for example, if the transshipment company in Los Angeles Machinery in the United States, your goods will be charged additional consumption tax when they are sent to the warehouse of Los Angeles Machinery! Therefore, there will be a lot of people who send it to the duty-free warehouse in California, so that you can be exempted from consumption tax when your goods are settled, and the money will be less, but the time will increase when you send the goods to the duty-free warehouse of the forwarding company, and the duty-free state does not fly to the domestic route, and you still have to transfer from the duty-free warehouse to the non-tax-free warehouse to get on the plane, so there will be a transfer fee, so it is recommended to send the duty-free warehouse for expensive goods, and the cheap ones are not sent, but the money is spent more!
