The so-called evasion of foreign exchange refers to the behavior of state organs, enterprises, institutions, groups or individuals who, in violation of the provisions of the state on foreign exchange control, privately transfer, buy, sell, store, carry, consign or post foreign exchange that should be sold to the state. This crime is a crime of amount. If the amount of foreign exchange evasion is not large, it is a general illegal act, and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange may impose administrative penalties according to law. In violation of state regulations, it will be a crime to carry or leave foreign currency certificates of deposit without authorization. The relevant laws of our country do not clearly stipulate that the amount of the crime of evading foreign exchange is huge, but there are provisions on the prosecution standard of the crime of evading foreign exchange. If the single amount exceeds $2 million or the accumulated amount exceeds $5 million, it shall be put on file for handling.
Legal basis: Provisions of the Supreme People's Procuratorate and the Ministry of Public Security on the Standards for Filing and Prosecuting Criminal Cases under the Jurisdiction of Public Security Organs (II) Article 46 If a company, enterprise or other unit, in violation of state regulations, deposits foreign exchange abroad without authorization, or illegally transfers domestic foreign exchange abroad, the single amount is more than 2 million US dollars or the accumulated amount is more than 5 million US dollars, it shall file a case for prosecution.
