Ставки таможенных пошлин
Ставки особых пошлин устанавливает правительство РФ. Следует отметить, что применение особых видов пошлин довольно затруднительно, т. к. требует предварительного и сложного расследования, осуществляемого по инициативе государственных органов управления РФ.
Своего рода несущей конструкцией Закона РФ «О таможенном тарифе» является таможенная стоимость товара, используемая для:
обложения товара пошлиной, внешнеэкономической и таможенной статистики применения иных мер государственного регулирования торгово- экономических отношений, связанных со стоимостью товаров, включая осуществление валютного контроля внешнеторговых сделок и расчетов банков по ним, в соответствии с законодательными актами РФ (Статья 5, пункт 6).
Из положений, характеризующих порядок определения таможенной стоимости товара, порядок и условия ее декларирования и др. (ст. 12-17), особо выделим следующие:
. система определения таможенной стоимости (таможенной оценки) товаров основывается на общих принципах таможенной оценки, принятых в международной практике, и распространяется на товары, ввозимые на таможенную территорию РФ;
. порядок определения таможенной стоимости товаров, вывозимых с таможенной территории РФ, устанавливает правительство РФ. Порядок применения системы таможенной оценки товаров, ввозимых на таможенную территорию РФ, устанавливает также правительство РФ, но на основании положений данного Закона;
. таможенная стоимость товара заявляется (декларируется) декларантом таможенному органу РФ при перемещении товара через таможенную границу РФ. Заявляемая декларантом таможенная стоимость и предоставляемые им сведения, относящиеся к ее определению, должны основываться на достоверной, количественно определяемой и документально подтвержденной информации;
. при отсутствии данных, подтверждающих правильность определения таможенной стоимости, либо при наличии оснований полагать, что представленные декларантом сведения не являются достоверными и (или) достаточными, таможенный орган РФ может самостоятельно определить таможенную стоимость декларируемого товара, последовательно применяя методы определения таможенной стоимости, установленные данным Законом;
начисление, уплата и взимание пошлины на товар производится на основе его таможенной стоимости в соответствии с Таможенным кодексом РФ.
Важно отметить, что на основе таможенной стоимости товаров и транспортных средств исчисляются, кроме того, НДС, акцизы, и таможенные сборы.
Поэтому характеристике методов определения таможенной стоимости товара посвящен целый раздел Закона РФ «О таможенном тарифе». В статье 18 говорится, что определение стоимости товаров, ввозимых на таможенную территорию РФ производится путем применения следующих методов:
- по цене сделки с ввозимыми товарами (основной метод);
- по цене сделки с идентичными товарами; по цене сделки с однородными
товарами; вычитания стоимости; сложения стоимости;
- резервного метода.
Принцип их применения следующий: если основной метод не может быть использован, применяется последовательно каждый из перечисленных методов. При этом каждый последующий применяется, если таможенная стоимость не может быть определена путем использования предыдущего метода.
