2.If it needs to declare or levy taxes, the customs will notify the recipient in China to go through customs procedures. Generally, they will send a message to the recipient’s mobile phone or call the receiver. The recipient usually needs to fill the forms required to the customs. After the customs checked and they will release the package. Later, China Post will deliver it to the receiver.

What should I do if I want it back from the customs?

If you want the customs to return your goods, the recipient needs to fill in the personal goods return approval form. After customs inspection, it will be released.

What should I do if the recipient does not receive the customs notice?

Package stuck at customs due to lack of invoice

Hi, my parcel tracking no. RC781391135SG has been held by customs. My local (Singapore) postal company said that reason is due to missing invoice of the item. They require the recipient to send them the invoice, but the recipient is a large corporation and seems unwilling to help me respond to customs, and instead sent me the e-invoice for me to forward it to China customs. However, I'm unable to contact China customs, is there any email I can send the invoice to so that they can help me forward my e-invoice to the customs for the release of my parcel? Pleaseee and thank you!
