Shipping Excess Baggage To China

When shipping goods to China, you are legally required to complete and send a customs declaration with your shipment. Whether you’re sending personal effects or a gift to a loved one; if your shipment does not have a customs invoice attached, it will not make it past your local country border, and you may have to pay return charges to get it back. My Baggage will automatically provide you with the appropriate customs documents for you to complete, print, sign and attach to your shipment when you send your luggage to China.
Generally, My Baggage shipments clear customs in a timely manner, free from duties and taxes, as most countries offer a generous duty-free allowance for personal effects. However, as customs processes and allowances are different around the world, and because My Baggage has no control over any decisions made, we do advise doing your own research into Chinese customs regulations and quarantine before booking your shipment to China. Please make yourself aware of potential customs duties in China.
Sending Personal effects to China
When sending your items to China it is extremely important that you understand that your items will be inspected by Chinese customs authorities who will assess your shipment. We are not in control of this process and cannot speed up or change the customs process. Chinese customs and our courier partner may get in touch with you directly to verify any of the information you supply therefore it is crucial that you provide the relevant documentation.
If your shipment is stopped by customs in China, this can on average delay your shipment by 1-10 working days.
Whilst we only give basic advice in regards to customs, it is always your responsibility to ensure you are using the right documentation as different regions in China may require different information.
The value limit on a Personal effects shipment is approximately CNY 800.00 (about £90.00) we strongly recommend keeping your items’ value beneath this as if your value exceeds this, you cannot have your items cleared as personal effects and may be subject to a heavy penalty.
In addition to your normal proforma invoice found in your “My Orders” section, we recommend including the following to help your item clear customs.
You must be present in China during the customs process, as customs may require you to provide additional information during the clearing process.
