Exporting Wine to Hong Kong
Wine to Hong Kong
Gavin Trott here from
the Australian Wine Centre.
It
was with great interest I read that Hong Kong has reduced and
lowered its import tax on wine.
This
tax, only a year or so ago, was at 80%, before being lowered. At a rate
like that it made importing wines your self from overseas quite
difficult, and expensive. However, the new import rate os 0%, in short,
wines brought into Hong Kong for your use, derives no import duties at
all.
This
is a fantastic bonus for any Hong Kong residents seeking to purchase
fine wines, at great prices.
It
means that we can now ship you your choice of great wines from here in
Australia, door to door, and land them with you at unbeatable prices,
with no import duties payable.
Indeed,
given the rebates that you receive from local WET and GST taxes, it
means we can deliver your choice of wines, to your door, at very
attractive prices, given that these rebates often cancel out most,
sometimes all, of the freight costs!
Let
me give you an example of a case of the fantastic 2007 Kalleske
Greenock Shiraz.
This
wine is $39.00 per bottle with us, which is $468.00 for a full case.
A
case of this wine, delivered to your door in Hong Kong would cost you
$466.00, with a 0 duty added.
In
short, it will cost you less to have that case of wine delivered to you
in Hong Kong, than if you lived next door to us. (different wines will
have different outcomes, but this is a great illustration)
Even
better, larger shipments (5 cases or more) the freight cost per case
drops rapidly, and would be even better value!
If
this sounds of interest to you, please do feel free to contact me for
any more information, for a quote of your choice, or for any assistance.
It
would be my pleasure to help with your wine needs, now, or at any other
time.
