Section 8-The abolition of the likin system in China and the abandonment of all other kinds of internal taxation on foreign imports and an exports will diminish the revenue. materially. The surtax on foreign imports and exports and on coastwise exports is intended to compensate in a measure for this loss of revenue, but there remains the loss of tikin revenue on internal trade to be met and it is therefore agreed that the Chinese Government are at liberty to impose a Com. sumption Tax on articles of Chinese origin not intended for export.
This tax shall be levied only at places of consumption and not goods while in transit, and the Chinese Government solemnly under- take that the arrangements which they may make for its collection shall in no way inter- fere with foreign goods or with native goods for export. The fact of goods being of foreign origin shall of itself free them from all taxation, delay, or stoppage, after having passed the Custom House.
Foreign goods which bear a similarity to native goods shall be furnished by the Custom House if required by the owner, with a protec tive certificate for each package, on payment of import duty and surtax, to prevent the risk of any dispute in the Interior.
