  1. The dynamite, the powder, nitroglycerin and other explosives.

All these articles, to be mattered, require of a permission that will send following the organism:

3. Valuation of used or equipped merchandise.

Concept

Those are merchandise, produced or manufactured, that being be object of one first sale, or were used according to their nature or conditions established by the effective norms. The merchandise, used for the effects of the valuation, will be divided in:

a) Merchandise in general and

b) specific Merchandise.

      1. For the effects of the valuation, are merchandise used in general, those whose value in customs exclusively has relation with the use and not with other special conditions of sale; which allows to make the determination of the value with a general procedure that the Customs uses indiscriminately.
      1. the used merchandise specific, are those that have been or must be studied in special form by the customs, due to conditions that do not present/display other used merchandise or that seem with a special importance front to the tributación. Between you are last, which they will be determined in each case by a resolution of the Main directorate of Customs, are: The automobiles, the new and used machineries for the construction, the mining and agriculture, the boats, the airplanes new or used and other that the Customs decides.

Alternatives of valuation

The valuation alternatives are indicated in the valuation decree and are:

a) The use, as it bases, of the price of invoice.

b) the use of the four methods of extracontractual valuation; and

c) the use of the method of the last resource, making flexible the criteria of the previous methods.

Valuation with base in the Price of Invoice

This method will be applied when the invoices come from an organization auctioneer or when the Customs recognizes it like salesman of used merchandise.

The customs will recognize if it states the fact, by means of newspapers, information of magazines or inquiries done by the section valuation.

The acceptance of the invoice will have to be done verifying previously that the values approach the values that the customs has like adulterated antecedents and anticipating that does not exist a invoicing.

In any case a previous negotiation that of some way proves that the invoice corresponds to identical merchandise or similar that are valued, will be test sufficient to accept its veracity.

Acceptance of invoice

The customs will accept the invoice as it bases of the valuation:

  1. to Only if the data that contribute correspond to the conditions in which it appears the merchandise used. If in the invoice it does not appear the characteristics of the use, the price of the invoice is due to reject.
  1. When it comes from a dedicated company to sell used merchandise, unless it includes a product whose price appears with a substantial difference with respect to the prices that the customs has like reference.

Application of the four following extracontractual methods

If the price of invoice is rejected, because it does not fulfill the requirements, the price to try to apply a value according to the other existing methods of valuation.

When analyzing each one of those methods, is necessary to consider that they are identical:

  1. The method of identical merchandise: Because another identical merchandise in the use do not exist. Nor although the time or the date of manufacture or sale is the same one, the wearing down or use can be very different. Therefore when the difference of the price is based on the use, it is not possible that identical merchandise to another one exist, that allows to use its value as bases for the collection of the customs tributes.
  1. Method of similar merchandise: Because as it happens with the identical merchandise, another similar merchandise do not exist, with the same use.
  1. Substracting or deductive method: Because, it cannot go away to the local commerce to look for identical merchandise or similar that have come with the same use and soon to deduce the price it bases to determine the burdenable value. The similarity in the use does not exist, because the use does not allow to a quality or similar duration, which prevents us to use the price of these merchandise that already are in the commerce, after being concerned, so that they serve to us as base in the formation of the value of tributación.
  1. Method of the reconstructed value: It is possible to reconstruct the value of new merchandise, because the antecedents talk about to merchandise just produced by the factory. But the value of used merchandise cannot be reconstructed, because the use in exact form cannot be considered, but fixing depreciations arbitrary. That depreciation arbitrary is different according to the class from merchandise that is tried to value and the resulting prices would not serve to reconstruct strictly, the value of another used merchandise. When analyzing each one of those methods, is necessary to consider that they are identical:

Application of the method of the reasonable criteria or last the resources.

The only usable resource to value these merchandise is the one of the reasonable criteria, also called the method of last the resources. In order to determine the value according to this method one settles down of obligatory the following procedure, that it must be used by all the civil employees:

To look for the value of other identical or similar imports of its nature, although the use makes differences:

  1. That the customs has perfected the given proceeding with previous.
  1. That they have invoiced in the same selling market.
  1. That they have been perfected in his proceeding within a term no superior to the year.

To use the information, to decide the burdenable value, with the data that it provides to him:

1. The own importer, from offices to previous, own or other people’s consumptions, although exists different a commercial level with the other importer.

2. The section valuation, like a reference, whenever those values are within the rank of a 10% upwards or downwards.

To use as it bases the price of similar new merchandise, contained by the Customs and reduced per years of use, according to the following form:
