Import Tax & Duty Second Opinion Review

Import Tax & Duty Second Opinion Review

1. What this review is

The Import Tax & Duty Second Opinion Review is a written, independent assessment of an existing or proposed China import tax position.

It is designed for situations where you already have:

  • A planned import transaction or project
  • A proposed duty relief or exemption approach
  • A tax guarantee or deferred payment strategy
  • An internal or third-party tax or customs opinion

This review focuses on structural tax exposure and regulatory risk, based strictly on publicly available laws, regulations, and policy logic.

It is intended to help you determine whether your current tax position is sound, fragile, or high-risk before shipment.

This review is not:

  • A tax planning or optimization service
  • A binding tax, duty, or classification ruling
