A new round of stable foreign trade policy

"Six Guarantees" and "Six Stability" are closely related.

From "six guarantees" to "six guarantees" highlights the bottom line thinking. Only by doing a good job can the "six guarantees" have a solid foundation. Striving for progress in stability is the general tone of economic work. Only when we are "stable" can we make progress. The realization of economic and social development goals cannot be separated from "stability", and the basic work is "guarantee".

"Six Guarantees" was put forward against the background that the COVID-19 epidemic had a great impact on economic and social development, and it was an important measure to solve short-term outstanding problems. "Six stabilities" and "Six Guarantees" come down in one continuous line. For example, both of them regard "employment" as their primary task. The first item of "six guarantees" is "stable employment" and the first item of "six guarantees" is "ensuring employment".

China's foreign trade laws and regulations require that the current foreign trade law includes general principles, foreign trade operators, import and export of goods and technologies, international service trade, foreign trade order, foreign trade investigation, foreign trade relief, foreign trade promotion, legal responsibilities and supplementary provisions.

1, tariff system

The tariff system is a system established by the government to levy taxes on import and export commodities when they pass through a country's customs territory. There are mainly fiscal tariffs aimed at increasing national fiscal revenue and protective tariffs aimed at protecting domestic related industries. When collecting pod tax, China implemented protective tariff policy for the purpose of protecting domestic products from competition with foreign products. This policy is mainly reflected by China's customs tariff policy and the customs tariff that embodies this policy.

2, goods import and export licensing system

Import and export license is actually an administrative procedure of the state for import and export, including both the procedures of the import and export license system itself and other administrative procedures based on the state license. As a non-tariff measure, the goods import and export license system is a common means for border countries to manage import and export, which has existed for a long time in international trade and is widely used.

3. Intellectual property protection in foreign trade

In the traditional sense, the scope of application of intellectual property rights is limited to China, and there is no effective remedy for the infringement of domestic intellectual property rights abroad. On the basis of referring to the relevant provisions of other countries, a chapter on "Protection of Intellectual Property Rights Related to Foreign Trade" has been added to China's Foreign Trade Law.

Article 29 of the Law aims to deal with the infringement of intellectual property rights by imported goods in China. This article stipulates that if imported goods infringe intellectual property rights and endanger the foreign trade order, the competent foreign trade department of the State Council may take measures such as prohibiting the import of goods produced and sold by the infringer for a certain period of time.
