The time for the customs declaration and inspection of imported sesame by an agent usually has no fixed standard. If it is fast, it can be 1 - 3 days. If it is slow, it may be 7 - 10 days or even longer. This mainly depends on the following factors: Firstly, it is the work efficiency of the customs and the volume of inspection tasks. If there are many inspection businesses at that time, the time may be extended. Secondly, the completeness and accuracy of the declaration materials are very important. If the materials are incorrect or missing, the customs will need more time to verify, and the inspection time will be lengthened. Moreover, the situation of the goods themselves, such as whether there are quality problems with the sesame, whether it meets the relevant standards, etc. If there are doubts, the customs will conduct a more detailed inspection, and the time will also increase. In addition, the inspection processes and busy degrees of different ports are different, which will also affect the inspection time. If the inspection time is too long, it will indeed increase the storage cost at the port. So it is very important to find a professional customs declaration agent company like Zhongshitong. They are familiar with the processes and can try their best to shorten the inspection time.

Sometimes the proportion of random inspections by the customs is low, and it may be released quickly, and the inspection can be completed in one day. But if it is subject to key inspections and involves some complex tests, it is hard to say how long it will take.
