Announcement: In order to better regulate the import and export of personal packages, the following regulations will take effect on September 1, 2010.
A. Personal shipments whose import duty is assessed at 50RMB and below will be exempted from duty.
B. Formal declaration is required for personal shipments to and from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, if the declared shipment value is greater than 800 RMB; for all other countries, formal declaration is required, if the declared shipment value is greater than 1000RMB.
C. Personal shipments exceeding the prescribed value will have to be returned or processed in accordance with customs procedures. If a shipment exceeds the above value threshold, but contains only 1 item and reasonably for personal use only, customs may allow it to be declared as personal. (This is at the discretion of China Customs)
D. The reinforced regulations may result in longer clearance time for imported personal packages.*
