My parcel has been with customs a long time

Asked by Eng123 | 9/9/2021 10:47:38 PM

Hi, my parcel states that it has been at Guangzhou City, import customs retention pending inspection since 31/08/2021.
Could you explain why this may be & how long it will be there for?

You may get the answer from the following articles:

How long does it take to ship via China Post?

Why is my package stuck in transit for so long?

I sent the package back to China and it's stuck at the customs. What should I do?

Hi Eng123,

It should be waiting for the receiver in China to declare to the customs now. You'd better contact the receiver in China to ask if he has received the notice from the customs. If no, let him check through authorized tax collection system (http://int.ems.com.cn/mailtax) to check.
