記者從全國人大代表、福建省平潭綜合實驗區海壇片區東門社區黨委書記薛玉鳳處獲悉，她將在今年的全國兩會上提交《關于賦予平潭國際旅游島離島旅客購物免稅政策的建議》。

“Outbound tourism has been on the rise in recent years, which has increased travelers' demand for international luxury goods and cosmetics. Hainan province has seen rapid growth in travelers' spending on such goods since a similar tax-free policy on luxury items was introduced to travelers leaving the island.”
“當前我國居民出境游不斷增多，對國際名品購物需求日益增加，市場空間巨大。從海南的實踐看，離島免稅政策實施以來，免稅購物消費金額連年保持高速增長。”
“I suggest that a tax-free policy also be implemented on Pingtan Island in Fujian province, as its construction plan, approved by the State Council, says that the government should step up development of shopping-driven tourism on the island. It's also of great help to transfer people's spending at overseas destinations to domestic attractions. The Ministry of Finance can designate Pingtan as an experimental zone for a tax-free policy, where the goods can include jewelry, watches, perfumes and cosmetics.”
“我建議賦予平潭綜合實驗區離島旅客購物免稅政策。國務院批復的《平潭國際旅游島建設方案》明確要‘加快發展購物旅游，擴大旅游購物消費’，賦予平潭離島旅客免稅政策，有利于將我國大陸出境游旅客在境外的購物消費轉移到境內。建議財政部支持賦予平潭綜合實驗區離島旅客購物免稅政策。試點期間，免稅商品品種限定為首飾、手表、香水、化妝品等消費品。”
