Dear All,
The importer's invoice is as follows :
Raw Material Cost
Air Freight
Total CFR
While filing BOE with Customs department our C&F Agents are showing the Air Freight charges of $ 10,400 as Miscellaneous Charges and clearing the goods, in my opinion our company is paying excess duty as we not considering the 20% restriction of Air Freight on FOB for customs valuation purposes.
Duty is to be paid as Customs valuation Rules is as follows :
CFR Value $ 17,192.00
Less : Air Freight
FOB
ADD : Air Freight
(Restricted to 20% of FOB)
CIF value for customs valuation $ 8,150.40
Please suggest me whether our C&F is correct in Customs valuation or my calculations are correct. please do the needful at the earliest.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
S.V.Ramana
