For the customs declaration of highway entrepot trade, first of all, relevant documents should be prepared, such as basic documents like commercial invoices, packing lists, bills of lading or waybills, and at the same time, the entrepot trade contract should be provided.
In the customs declaration process, before the goods arrive at the border port, declare to the customs in advance. When declaring, fill in the detailed information of the goods accurately, including the name, specification, quantity, value, etc. The customs will review the declared content and may inspect whether the actual situation of the goods is consistent with the declaration.
It should be particularly noted here that the certificate of origin of the entrepot trade goods is very important. It is necessary to ensure its authenticity and validity to prove that the source of the goods complies with the regulations. In addition, the declared price should be reasonable to avoid arousing the customs' doubts due to price problems. If the declared information is incorrect, the modification process is cumbersome and may incur additional costs. In short, accurate preparation of documents and truthful declaration are the keys to the customs declaration of highway entrepot trade.
