Greenwell: Okay. <br />Taniguchi: Good question. Is this for re -sale or just for personal (use)? <br />Takase: No, just personal. <br />Greenwell: Personal. <br />Takase: She said they've been going but don't know when they'll be going again so <br />they wanted to bring back a lot this time. <br />Taniguchi: When you have this kind of thing, do you still have to pay duty? If you <br />exceed the amount? <br />Takase: That's between you and Customs. <br />Taniguchi: So you're still subject to that, though? <br />Takase: I get varying reports. When I went through Customs, they said you could bring <br />back one bottle. Others say you can bring back two or three. Anything above that, <br />whatever that limit is, you're supposed pay Customs on. <br />Masuda: Gerald, when you bring it back, is there a limit on the quantity? Like 1.9 liters. <br />Takase: No, they just go by the bottle. <br />Greenwell: There used to be a limitation of one gallon was duty free. I don't know if it's <br />changed. <br />Taniguchi: I think it's less than that for sake. I think it's like that 720 milliliters. It's not <br />one gallon. I was wondering, because with this amount, (referring to HRS 281-33.1, as <br />stated on the application), not to exceed five gallons, it's a lot. <br />Takase: Well, nine bottles. I hear the duty is not that high on it. <br />Taniguchi: That's a good question, Mr. Greenwell. I didn't know you had to do this. <br />How much before you need approval for? Not even one gallon? <br />Takase: Usually, they're going to bring back a big amount. The only times we actually <br />see these are when people are moving. Especially military, because the military <br />movers will require that you get a permit. <br />Taniguchi: So this is unusual? <br />Takase: Yes. I think she's bringing back two cases so they wanted to make sure. <br />Arakaki: Is there a fee that they have to pay for this application? <br />NOVEMBER 1, 2018 - LIQUOR COMMISSION MINUTES <br />23 <br />
