2. HS codes for various types of scissors

HS codes for general goods for all kinds of scissors. This is a code table applied worldwide. To determine the HS code, it is necessary to base on the material, structure, size, and function. Below, Just In Time has compiled the HS codes for all kinds of scissors according to the table below:

According to the table above, we can see that there are three main types of HS codes for scissors. HS codes for scissors used in the home, in the office, and for tailors; type two is scissors used in agriculture; type three is scissors used to cut iron.

Each type of scissors has different import tax rates. The VAT rate for scissors is 10%. The tax rates for the above types of scissors are preferential tax rates. In addition to preferential tax rates, there are also special preferential tax rates. Special preferential tax rates depend on whether the exporting country is a country with which Vietnam has signed a trade agreement.

3. Import tax of all kinds

Import tax is an obligation that the importer must fulfill when importing goods to Vietnam. Import tax for goods has two types: Value added tax and import tax. To calculate import tax, please refer to the calculation below. How to calculate tax when doing import procedures for various types of goods is as follows:

Import tax determined by HS code, import tax is calculated according to the formula:
Import tax = CIF value x % tax rate

Import VAT is determined by the formula:
Value added tax = (CIF value + Import tax) x VAT rate %.

According to the above formula, it can be seen that import tax depends on the tax rate according to the HS code. To get the lowest and most accurate tax rate, it is necessary to determine the correct HS code. Besides, it also depends on whether the shipment has a certificate of origin or not, to enjoy a special preferential tax rate.

For goods imported from countries such as: Europe, India, Australia, Chile, China, Korea, Japan, ASEAN countries. Importers should ask the seller to provide them with a certificate of origin to enjoy the lowest import tax rates.
