What are the items that Customs is likely to target for spot checks?

One of the principles of the customs is not to check the goods within the scope of "personal use", that is, if the customs think that your goods belong to the individual's personal belongings, it is generally not randomly selected, only when your goods are more "suspicious", then it will be randomly selected. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new pair of shoes or boots.

What kind of goods are considered "suspicious"?

Prohibited goods: If your shipment is mixed with prohibited goods, it will be inspected, detained, and possibly penalized;

Sensitive goods: Sensitive goods have a higher probability of being randomly inspected, especially if the quantity and value exceeds "reasonable self-use".

What are the circumstances under which an item will be detained?

1. Contraband: When one piece of contraband is found, the entire shipment will be detained.

2, declaration problems: the difference between the declared value and the customs valuation is large, the declared name and the actual name of the product does not match or have discrepancies, the number and value of items exceed the starting point, you need to pay the tariff first.

3, certification materials: the need to certify the product, did not provide certification materials

4, packaging problems: packaging is not standardized, packaging damage or wear and tear of the face sheet can not be clearly seen, can not be confirmed to the information

5, there is no or the place of origin, the brand and model does not match, belong to the infringing products or contraband

6, the goods do not meet the transshipment of goods imported to the country of destination

The embargoed goods are basically unreturnable once they are detained by customs, so don't take any chances!

Sensitive goods were detained, need to be based on the specific reasons for the detention, such as because the quantity and value of more than the "reasonable self-use" category, you can try to contact the local customs to explain the purpose of the goods, to provide relevant information, and request the Customs release;

If it is the declaration of the problem, then the re-and customs The first thing you need to do is to make sure that you have a good understanding of what you are doing.

How do I avoid being detained?

In advance, understand the precautions and risks of the goods in international logistics, understand the goods you want to send the relevant provisions of the destination country, whether or not to meet the requirements

Declare truthfully, don't take chances

A single class of goods to avoid excessive quantities, generally not more than 10, the value of the value of not more than 1,000 yuan, in short, if you want to send a lot of things, beyond the "reasonable self use". In short, if you want to send a lot of things, beyond the category of "reasonable self-use", the probability of being randomly inspected will greatly increase, such as being randomly inspected, please think ahead of how to explain to the customs and the supporting materials.
