First, the main qualifications that imported wine enterprises should have

Enterprises in China should not only go through the formalities of industry and commerce, taxation, etc. if they want to engage in imported wine business. It is necessary for a general business enterprise, including the liquor business qualification within the registered business scope, and having the import liquor business license and hygiene license.

It is also necessary to go through the following procedures in relevant departments: obtain the Registration Form for Foreign Trade Operators from the local commercial department, and obtain foreign trade qualification only after filing and registration.

A foreign trade operator shall, within 30 days, go through the formalities required to carry out foreign trade business at the local customs, inspection and quarantine, foreign exchange, taxation and other departments with the registration form stamped with the seal of filing and registration.

Three. Import duty on imported wine

Current tax rate for imported bottled wine (the tax levied is paid in RMB):

1, tariff: 14% (tariff: cif ×14%);

2. VAT: 17% (VAT: (CIF+ tariff) ×17%);

3. Consumption tax: 10% (consumption tax: [(CIF+ tariff)/(1~10%)] ×10%).

Four. Handle the "registered trademark of China"

The imported wine business enterprise shall obtain the form from the local inspection and quarantine bureau and prepare the following customs declaration documents:

1, enterprise business license;

2, wine quality inspection and quarantine report;

Enterprises need the State Commodity Inspection Bureau to inspect the corresponding imported wine samples and issue inspection reports.

3. The printed original and translation of the manufacturer's production license (the certificate shall be issued by the relevant local institutions or organizations in the producing country);

4. The original printed copy and translation of the manufacturer's hygiene license (the certificate shall be issued by relevant local institutions or organizations in the producing country);

5. The original printed copy and translation of the wine production process of the production enterprise (simply describe the wine production process and affix the seal of the enterprise or the signature of the person in charge). );

6. Chinese trademark design proofs.

Keep the foreign language displayed on the original front label, and there must be corresponding translation on the Chinese label. The font of Chinese product name is larger than that of foreign product name. Proofreading must be original size and can be color printed matter.

After the above information is complete, it will be reported to the State Commodity Inspection Bureau for approval through local commodity inspection bureaus, and a Letter of Approval for Registered Trademarks in China will be issued, with one wine corresponding to one trademark. If a wine applies for another trademark, then the Chinese name of the wine must not be the same. However, if the Chinese name of the declaration is duplicate, another name is needed.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) Determination of Chinese names of imported wines

1, named after grape variety name or manufacturer name, named after grape Chinese name or manufacturer name;

2, named after the place of origin, named after its Chinese translation;

3, named after the brand, in order to correspond to Chinese and foreign voices, generally named after transliterated Chinese characters.

8. Customs clearance procedures for imported wine.

The import procedure of food and beverage is commodity inspection before customs. If the commodity inspection fails, the goods will not be allowed to enter the customs and will be returned.

Commodity inspection should check the declared goods in the goods supervision area: whether the packaging meets the standards and whether the Chinese registered trademark is complete. In addition, we should also review the cargo documents, including the health immunization certificate, certificate of origin, quality guarantee and so on issued by the exporting country. For "tray" packaged wine, if wooden trays are used, the "fumigation certificate" issued by the exporting country must also be audited. The other is to conduct random inspection of goods. Generally, sampling inspection is carried out according to one thousandth of the total cargo. Check whether it meets the national hygiene standards for imported food, and keep the remaining sampling samples.

After the commodity inspection is completed, the customs shall declare and pay taxes at the same time. The procedure is the same as other imported goods. It should be noted that the customs price assessor examines the authenticity of the CIF declaration of imported wine. It is necessary to prepare some convincing materials to prevent the customs from distrusting and setting the price by the customs (of course, it will be much higher than the original declared price), which will cause a heavy burden to enterprises.

In addition, when I watched the financial news yesterday, I noticed that there was a very large wine base somewhere in Gansu, China, where many world-renowned wineries bought many kinds of grapes, and even such enterprises as Midea entered the industry.
