There are
two channels, red and green, in China customs. Take
the red one if you have something to declare, otherwise
the green one. If you are uncertain which channel
you should take, then take the red one.
If you take the red channel the customs officer
will check to see whether you have to pay duty,
deposit the items at Customs, or allow you to take
them into China but take them out on your departure.
If you take things such as computers, cameras, video
cameras, gold and silver, printed or recorded materials,
or anything more than you need during your travel
in China, you have to fill in the "Customs
Luggage Declaration Form". Similarly, if you
are planning to leave any sort of significant item
behind, you should also fill out the form.
A copy of the form must be retained by the traveler
and be submitted to Customs when leaving the country.
All the items declared on the form must be brought
out of China or else import duty will be charged
on them.
Visitors are allowed to carry into China a limited
quantity of duty-free goods including:
• 2 liters of alcoholic beverages • 400
cigarettes • 50g (2 ounces) of gold or
silver • US$ less than 5,000 •
Chinese RMB with a total value less than 20,000
yuan • Reasonable amount of perfume
• 1 still camera and reasonable amount of
film
Prohibited imports include: fresh fruit, arms, ammunition
and explosives, printed matter, films ortapes "detrimental
to China", narcotic drugs, animals and plants.
Remember: All the receipts of the
valuable articles, such as jewelry, jade, gold and
silver ornaments, handicrafts, artifacts, paintings
and calligraphy, you bought in China should be kept
for the exit check. Antiques are not permitted to
leave China without the proper "Certificates
for the Export of Cultural Relics" from the
Chinese Authorities. |
