[quote=BAKUI,423620]According to the Chinadaily.com, from May 1st, a new policy will be adopted in Hainan Island, which allows travelers from all over the world to enjoy duty-free buying at selected stores. This will make the goods much cheaper than the mainland China. Actually, permission to buy goods duty-free in Hainan had been extended to foreign and non-mainland travelers before, but never to mainland visitors. The goal of the policy is to make Hainan into a tropical tourist destination by 2020. The tourism industry is then expected to contribute 12 percent of the island's gross domestic product. However, not all goods are offered a duty-free policy. Here is list of the privileged: jewelries, artworks, wristwatches, perfumes, cosmetics, pens, glasses, scarves, neckties, wool fabrics, cotton goods, clothing, belts, bags, small leather goods, candies and sporting goods. Anyway, remember to get the tax refunded if you buy those goods in Hainan next time. [/quote]
