巴基斯坦纺织厂寻求人造纤维进口15%的关税

 

Pak textile mills seek 15% duty on MMF imports

All Pakistan Textile Mills Association Chairman Tariq Saud has urged the government to immediately impose a 15 per cent Regulatory Duty on the import of man-made fibres (MMF), particularly polyester viscose yarn, polyester cotton yarn and pure polyester yarn.
In a statement, he said an emergency meeting of the member mills was held at the Punjab office of the Association to review the import statistics of the MMF for domestic consumption, which has increased by four times in last four years and likely to reach to 57,000 tonnes per annum by the end of 2015-16.
He said the surge in the import of MMF yarns has become a matter of serious concern for the domestic industry and poses a serious threat to the survival of about two million spindles with over three million direct and indirect workforce associated with this industry.
Saud claimed the textile industry had been requesting the government to impose 15 per cent Regulatory Duty on the import of all MMF yarns.
"An unchecked import of yarns has hit the viability of the domestic spinning yarn industry, which is also threatening the survival of domestic PSF producers and the PTA industry by and large," he said.

巴基斯坦纺织厂寻求人造纤维进口15%的关税

巴基斯坦纺织厂协会主席Tariq Saud已经敦促政府立即向进口的人造纤维(MMF)征收15%的监管税,尤其是涤粘纱、涤棉纱和涤纶纱。

在一份声明中,他说协会成员在旁遮普的办公室举行紧急会议来审查进口MMF国内消费的统计,其在过去四年中增加了四倍,在2015-2016财年可能达到57000吨。

他说,进口激增MMF纱线已经成为国内产业严重关切的问题,对约二百万纺纱者以及与该行业相关的超过三百万直接和间接劳动力的生存构成严重的威胁。

Saud声称纺织业已经请求政府实施对MMF纱线征收15%的监管税。

“一个不受限制的进口纱线已冲击到国内纺纱纱线行业的生存能力,总体上来说也威胁到国内PSF生产者和PTA行业的生存,”他说。
