There are several reasons why a product may be detained by customs, including :
The value of the product: if the declared value of the product is higher than the limit allowed by customs, it can be detained for evaluation and, if an infringement is found, the company responsible can be penalized and fined.
Government regulations: some products may be banned or restricted in certain countries, requiring a more rigorous evaluation before being released.
Incomplete or incorrect documentation: if the documentation required for import is not complete or correct, the product may be detained for further verification.
Conflict with other laws: some products may conflict with other laws and regulations, such as intellectual property or environmental protection, which could lead to detention and seizure.
Security inspection: certain products, such as weapons or explosives, require strict security inspections and can be detained until the inspection is completed, provided that the importing/exporting company is authorized to do so.
In general, customs is responsible for checking that products entering the country meet all legal and regulatory requirements. If you have any questions about product compliance, please contact Flipper Group.
