The time limit for customs clearance depends on many factors and usually does not exceed 7 working days. Different commodities have different audit requirements, and the time also changes. Customs clearance will be completed within 2-3 working days after ordinary goods arrive at the port. Due to the customs clearance of old equipment, it is necessary to go through the formalities of intermediate inspection, filing and import license application in advance (5-8 working days), and the customs clearance is pending, and the customs price audit will be completed in 3-5 working days.
Customs clearance delay principle:
1. The customs will conduct spot checks on the goods. If the selected goods are randomly selected, as long as they are inspected by the customs, no assistance is required. As long as the customs thinks there is no problem, it will be released. Just wait for this situation, usually 1-3 working days.
2. The local customs thinks that the declared value is inconsistent with the actual value of the goods, and it needs to be declared again at this time. If your actual value is the same as the declared value of the goods, but the local customs thinks it is not, in this case, you need to provide proof of the value of the goods.
The goods are subject to customs duty at the destination. If the consignee refuses to pay the customs duty or has no time to pay the customs duty, it may also cause customs clearance delay.
4. The name on the commercial invoice is not detailed, or the name is wrong.
