澳大利亚海关关于海运的官方文字

以下文字摘自澳大利亚海关的网站<br>

Concessions<br>
If you are a migrant coming to Australia to take up permanent residence for the first time, or a person returning to resume permanent residence, you may enter duty/tax free any unaccompanied effects - other than controlled items - which you have owned and used overseas for 12 months (or more) before your departure for Australia.<br>
<br>
我的理解：1.对于移民第一次登陆或者永久居民返回澳大利亚，任何不随身携带（比如海运）的物品，均可免税。<br>2.对于其他人，不随身携带（比如海运）的物品，必须是使用超过12个月的，才能够免税。<br>
是这样吗？英语不好，请英语大牛之人指教。关键在于“other than controlled items”这句话前后怎么理解。 <img src="../leadbbsfile/UBBicon/em13.GIF" width=46 height=46 align=absmiddle border=0>

关键在于“other than controlled items”这句话前后怎么理解。 <br>
<br>
-------> except controlled items

同意3楼的看法：<br>
应该是到澳洲之前已经使用12个月以上的东西才能免税。<br>
other than controlled items 的意思是不包括受控制的物品，是插入语，从破折号可以看出。把那个插入语去掉，就容易理解这句话的意思了。

我觉得which you have owned and used overseas for 12 months (or more) before your departure for Australia是修饰unaccompanied effects 的定语从句。

不知道其他人怎么看。<br>
如果是这样，如何界定什么东西用了一年呢？难道还都要发票？不懂。

没有人明白吗？<br>

这条好 就是说第一次短登 和以后长登 都是免税的

文文

是这篇吗? 我当时收录的,但不记得是谁的文章了,参考一下吧.<br>
<br>
Yes, as a new migrant, you are entitled to bring in your personal and household effects without paying any customs duty or taxes, provided you can satisfy Customs when they are imported, that you have owned and used these goods for over 12 months prior to you first arriving in Australia. <br>
There is no time limit on importing your personal and household effects. Any time the goods are in storage, does not count in the 12 months ownership and use provision. <br>The time that you are here in Australia and your goods are still overseas, therefore will not qualify in the period of ownership and use. On importation, you will have to satisfy the Customs Inspector that you are entitled to this concession. You may be expected to produce evidence of ownership and use. Receipts for purchases may be asked to be produced. If there is any doubt that you are entitled to this concession you may be asked to pay customs duty and GST（可能是消费税goods and service tax）. Below are some examples if you are required to pay Customs. <br>Normal household appliances would generally attract 5% customs duty and 10% GST. <br>Towels, clothing 25% customs duty and 10% GST. <br>There is a sliding scale of depreciation on goods owned and used for less than 12 months: <br>
less than 3 months - 20%, 3 - 6 months - 40%, 6 - 12 months - 60% <br>

从字面上理解，新移民第一次入境，不随身携带的物品，使用已经超过12个月以上的， 除了有特殊规定的物品外， 都可以免税

mite

第一次明白 没有不同理解。 是第二部分 RETURNING TO RESUME PERMENAT RESIDNECE 的时间界定 有不同理解

西边雨

我也同意3楼的说法，应该都是免税的，只要能证明已经使用了12个月以上

f-s

我理解不是这样。<br>
<br>
应该是 1，第一次登陆； 2， “RETURN TO RESUME PERMENANT RESIDENCE” 应该是指 你5年的PR过期以后 第6年去第2次再申请（RESUME）PR 成功以后再（第一）次入境时候 可以免税。 否则一个人一年多次往返 难道可以多次免税吗？？？

mite

那就是说只有第一次短登才免税？？？？？？？ 知道的兔子 解释一下。 谢。 我也是短登后打算长登 并且在考虑海运的。

美丽开始

那现在就只剩下如何证明使用超过12个月的这个问题了，样样东西都要发票那不是要晕倒了，毛巾之类的，倒还简单，反正要过水的，这边洗了，到那边倒省事了。

If you are a migrant coming to Australia to take up permanent residence for the first time, or a person returning to resume permanent residence, you may enter duty/tax free any unaccompanied effects - other than controlled items - which you have owned and used overseas for 12 months (or more) before your departure for Australia.<br>
如果你是作为一个移民第一次来澳州永久居住，或者回来继续永久居住，你的任何没有随身携带的物品-除了那些受控制的东西-，那些物品在你出发之前已经拥有并且使用超过12个月，是免税的。

普通的物品，免
控制的物品+用过12个月，也免

问题，
控制物品list呢？
如何证明12个月？
