Conformity assessment procedures |

Relevant information

Prior declaration of customs documents is allowed if a shipment contains a variety of goods, requires rapid processing during particular seasons (e.g. during the harvest season and New Year), or requires special storage facilities. Simplified procedures for customs declaration, requiring fewer documents, are also available where goods enter or leave customs bonded zones or customs special zones directly from or for abroad. Accelerated procedures are applicable for certain hazardous goods, blood and blood products, and donors' organs to be used for treatment purposes; customs clearance is on the basis of ex-post completion of customs declaration forms. Businesses and individuals permitted for accelerated procedures are allowed to pay customs duties and other taxes prior to the clearance. Examination must be completed within eight working hours for dangerous goods requiring special treatment (e.g. uranium and highly toxic chemical substances) or animals.
