Why your goods will be inspected by customs?
I believe that many people export goods, once you hear the “customs inspection” a big head, time-consuming and costly. But know why your goods will be checked by customs?
About the inspection, there are basically two situations, the customs system random control and manual control by the customs officer.
Customs system random control: random control can only say bad luck, in general, the sampling rate of about 3%, of course, this sampling rate is constantly adjusted. At a certain stage, the customs focus on the audit of a certain type of goods or a certain type of business, for this kind of goods or business inspection rate is extra high, but this is not the norm.
Manual control by customs officers: Manual control is largely due to themselves. No customs want to check you, and you give the customs declaration of information had to let customs check you.
General which declared information will cause the customs to check it?
1. Name: the scientific name and common name of the product are easy to get wrong, the English translation of the Chinese name and the actual product name is inconsistent. Too many names want to save trouble, so they are combined into several names. This is easy to cause the product price, net weight, and quantity to be higher than the actual.
2. Declaration amount: Many people will report the amount high or low, but the customs system has an early warning function. Once the price exceeds the scope of the customs system database, the system will immediately pop up a dialog box to inform the price that has problems.
3. Customs code: many people provide the code and declare the elements of serious non-conformity. For example, if you declare a steel pipe, the code you provide is seamless, but the elements you declare are welded seams. Provide the code is alloy steel, but the elements of the declaration are written stainless steel … How do you think customs can not check you!
4. Product net weight: most people ignore the net weight of the product at this point. Many customers have only the gross weight of the product, and then back through the gross weight to the approximate net weight, resulting in the actual net weight does not match.
5. Total number and pieces: Some customers will not count the complimentary things and samples to the total, which will also lead to the gross weight, net weight, and actual weight may want to differ significantly.
6. Brand: this we all understand, customs will verify whether your brand infringement. These above are very easy to make mistakes, which can lead to cause unnecessary checks, I hope it can help you.
