Will I definitely pay too much for C3?

Not necessarily. C3 = Customs unpacking inspection + document review, but it does not mean that taxes will be added. If the actual product = declared content, it will still be released at the original tax rate after C3 (it just takes a long time). However, if any abnormality is found in the declaration, the tax will be assessed or increased. Honest declaration = C3 also passed customs smoothly.

My package has always been C3, is it listed by customs?

Possibly. 3 common reasons: abnormal declarations in the past and being listed as key counseling objects; abnormally high number of imports within a year (> 6 times of the same type); long-term vagueness of the declared product name. Processing: Suspend the shipment for 1-2 months to allow the system to cool down; confirm that all declaration information is correct; if you have any questions, please consult the customer service of the Good Luck Machine or the Customs Services Department.

The price assessed by customs is higher than what I actually bought. How can I prove it?

Prepare 4 types of files: screenshots of the product purchase page (including date, price, and seller); credit card/Alipay transaction records; selling prices of the same product on other platforms (comparison on Taobao, JD.com, and Amazon); merchant shipping list. Objection application via EZWay or submitted in writing to the Customs Department, provided within 30 days.

Can the consolidator file the declaration for me?

The basic information (CCC code, commodity classification) will be filled in by the consolidator, but the declared amount will be confirmed by you. The Good Luck System will suggest a CCC code based on the product name, but the final confirmation is yours. Suggestion: Carefully read the tax bill details notified by EZWay. If you have any questions, please contact the customer service of Good Fortune Machine for assistance before clicking Confirm to declare.

Will the customs clearance code always be made public?

Yes. All the status of the package from customs entry to release will be displayed on the EZWay APP: received, customs declaration in progress, customs clearance code (C1/C2/C3), under review, and release. If the status is abnormal (for example, the card C3 is more than 7 days old), you can proactively contact the customs or consolidator to inquire.

What is the difference between personal use vs business declaration?

3 major differences: Tax exemption: NT$2,000 for individuals vs. None for businesses; Declaration documents: Individuals only need EZWay vs. Business requires invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and certificate of origin; Tax rate: Individuals follow the published tax rate vs. Businesses can enjoy 0% tariff on the ECFA early harvest list.
