US Customs Regulations for Foreign-Bought items:

Packages whose declared value is under $200 ($100 if being sent as a gift to someone other than the purchaser) will generally be cleared without any additional paperwork prepared by CBP(Customs and Border Protection). However, CBP always reserves the right to require a formal entry for any importation and generally exercises this option if there is something unusual about the importation, or if important documents such as an invoice or bill of sale do not accompany the item.

To speed a package through CBP examination at a port's International Mail Branch, the seller should affix a completed CN 22 or CN 23 to the outside of the package. This form may be obtained at local post offices worldwide.

All packages, sent by 321bay, are on the outside affixed with the completed CN 22 forms. Our customers in the USA and Canada never had any kind of complications during their imports from us and are frequently receiving our shipments from Hong Kong without interventions of the CBP.

Based on our previous airmail shipping experiences to countries like USA, UK, Australia, Canada, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Spain and so on, almost all of our customers in these countries never had any kind of problems with their local custom agencies and are frequently receiving our shipments from Hong Kong without any intervention of Custom Agencies. We would like to point out that all international orders are subject to duties, taxes and fees as determined by their local governments. Since each country is different, 321bay can not be hold responsibile in paying those duties. All import duties, taxes and fees must be paid by the customer.

According to different requirements in different countries, we would encourage you to consult with your countrie's customs office and check about custom clearance, duties, restrictions and tax regulations. Try to find out what the taxes are and how high the value of your imported airmal package can be, before you have to pay any taxes.
