What is Customs Clearance Process
Every country has its different guidelines and rules that govern how cargo enters and leaves the country. Custom clearance refers to the documented permission for the load to maneuver in and out of a nation. Customs clearance is handled by a shipping company to ensure all guidelines get followed to the latter, approved, and signed.
Most people tend to feel skeptical about shipping their goods internationally for fear of the customs clearance process where they may have had unpleasant experiences. However, customs clearance is a safe way to ensure one's cargo gets to be transported safely and in line with the rules and regulations to avoid breaking the law, which may result in more significant consequences. One must have an idea of the customs clearance process to rightly follow up.
- For a start, the shipment receives a documented invoice that holds the information about the sender, recipient, airway bill, date, and a description of the items transported.
- The customs officer would then look at the document to ensure all rules get followed and the item gets paid. These guidelines would be in line with the type of product, value, and the laws guarding the shipment. The customs officer then ensures all taxes necessary settled.
- In case the taxes haven't been paid for, the customs will request the client to pay. The item is marked as Delivery Duty Unpaid (DDU) or Delivery Duty Paid (DDP) for the paid cargo.
- Once the taxation process has been completed, the cargo is then released to transport to its destination.
