1. Value of the commodities

According to China imports regulations, all personal shipments imported into Mainland China have to meet the following requirements:

Maximum Declared Value	Ship From Hong Kong, Macau And Taiwan	Ship From Other Countries
A shipment with multiple items	Total declared value should not exceed RMB 800	Total declared value should not exceed RMB 1,000
A shipment with one undividable item	If it is intended for personal use, it would be imported as personal shipment even if the total declared value exceeds the prescribed limits.

You are recommended to keep a screenshot of the transaction details or sales receipt for future reference.

2. Accurate information for customs clearance

You are required to declare the type, brand name, value and description in light of actual commodity conditions.

3. Quantity of commodities

Please ensure that the quantity of your purchase is reasonable for personal use. For example, 2 bottles of the same health supplement can be considered as an adult dosage for a period of time (6-12 months) but if you ship more than 1 quantity of watches with the same model, it will probably be considered as a commercial shipment and this will lead to a delay in customs clearance and request for additional supporting documents.

4. Duty incurred importing to Chinese Mainland

There may be duties incurred for commodities shipped to the Chinese Mainland. Duties may be paid by either the shipper or receiver in China. The duty amount is determined by the type of commodity, quantity, declared value or duty paid value (as determined by China customs). According to regulations on postal items by China Customs, the current import duty threshold for personal item is RMB 50. Duty amount equal to or less than RMB 50 is waived.
