Customs declarations must be filled out correctly. Any false, ambiguous or incomplete declaration could result in confiscation of the item or payment of a fine by the addressee.
If the goods are liable to ad valorem taxes, the item must be accompanied by a bill in duplicate indicating a detailed description of the contents and the value of each article.
Commercial invoices are required.
Except for plants and seeds, certificates of origin, furnished by the sender, need not be inserted for purposes of customs clearance. However, if these certificates are missing, the highest clearancefee charges will be applied to the parcels.
Any postal parcel or any ordinary, registered or insured item containing a false declaration as to its contents or value may be confiscated by Customs. Customs may also confiscate items and postalparcels containing articles whose importation is prohibited or restricted. Because it is considered a serious offence intended to deceive customs authorities, a false declaration regarding contents will automatically result in seizure of the parcel or item concerned. Addressees will be tried before a special Customs tribunal.
