HS 950510China → Korea
1Overview
- Destination duty: 0% (FTA 협정세율 - 중국, 9505100000)
- VAT (부가가치세): 10%
- This code covers: Other articles for Christmas festivities
Key points
- Small-consignment exemption: goods value of US$150 or less for self-use items, and US$200 or less for goods of U.S. origin under KORUS. Same-day shipments from the same sender are aggregated.
- Import VAT is 10%, charged on the customs value plus duty plus any individual consumption or liquor tax.
- A customs broker is not mandatory. The importer may self-file in UNI-PASS, and an individual needs a personal customs clearance code.
- FTA preference needs a certificate or declaration of origin: KORUS for U.S. origin, the Korea-China FTA or RCEP for Chinese origin. Korea and Taiwan have no agreement, so the basic or WTO rate applies.
- Whether a product requirement applies depends on the HS code. Food, cosmetics, electrical goods and radio equipment must clear their agency requirement before customs clearance can proceed.

- · Tax base = customs value (CIF) + duty + individual consumption tax, liquor tax, education tax and special rural development tax where they apply.
- · Duty is calculated at whichever rate in the tariff schedule applies: basic rate (A), WTO rate (C), or an FTA preferential rate.
- · Small self-use consignments may instead be assessed at the simplified combined rate under Article 81 of the Customs Act, which rolls duty and internal taxes into one figure.
- · Individual consumption tax applies only to listed goods such as certain cosmetics, precious metals and vehicles; alcohol carries liquor tax and education tax separately.
- · A business importer can normally credit the import VAT as input tax, so the final cost differs between businesses and individuals.

6Procedure
- Arrival and manifestThe carrier or forwarder files the cargo manifest before arrival and reports discharge once the vessel is in.
- Entry into a bonded areaThe goods move into a bonded area such as a CY, CFS or bonded warehouse. A declaration can be filed from that point, or earlier as a pre-arrival or pre-departure declaration when speed matters.
- Import declarationThe importer or a customs broker files the declaration in UNI-PASS with the HS code, customs value, origin, the rate claimed including any FTA preference, and any product requirement.
- Document review and examinationThe declaration is routed as paperless, document review or physical examination. Goods subject to a product requirement wait until the relevant agency has confirmed it.
- PaymentDuty, VAT and any internal taxes are paid. With security lodged, deferred payment including monthly consolidated payment is available.
- Acceptance and releaseOnce the import declaration certificate is issued the goods leave the bonded area. Amendment, refund claims and duty drawback follow their own separate procedures.
- Arrival and discharge reportThe airline files the manifest and reports discharge, and the goods move into the airport bonded cargo terminal.
- Import declarationThe declaration is filed in UNI-PASS, with the same pre-arrival option as for ocean cargo.
- Review, examination and requirementsAgency confirmation is obtained where a product requirement applies. Because air cargo moves quickly, the requirement step is often the constraint.
- Payment and acceptanceTaxes are paid and the import declaration certificate is issued.
- ReleaseThe goods leave the airport bonded area.
- Express clearance listThe express operator submits the clearance list to customs before arrival. For an individual importer it must carry the personal customs clearance code.
- Choosing the trackLow-value self-use goods go through list clearance; everything else goes through a simplified or a full declaration. Goods excluded from list clearance, such as medicines, health functional foods, some foods and cosmetics and electrical goods, must be declared regardless of value.
- Exemption testSelf-use goods with a goods value of US$150 or less, or US$200 or less for U.S. origin, are free of duty and VAT. Same-day shipments from the same sender are added together for the test.
- Assessment and paymentAbove the threshold the whole value is taxable, and small self-use consignments may be assessed at the simplified combined rate. Express operators normally advance the tax and bill the recipient.
- Release and deliveryAfter clearance the operator delivers. Goods awaiting an agency confirmation stay in the bonded area until it is issued.
- Traveller declarationOn arrival, travellers complete the traveller declaration form or the mobile declaration and declare dutiable goods.
- Personal allowanceThe basic allowance is US$800, with separate allowances for alcohol, tobacco and perfume.
- Voluntary declarationDeclaring goods above the allowance voluntarily earns a reduction in the duty; failing to declare and being found out attracts a penalty surcharge.
- Commercial goodsGoods carried for sale need an ordinary import declaration even when hand-carried, and any product requirement still applies.
