I received an EZWay push notification for a parcel I never ordered — what do I do about an impersonation declaration, and what are the legal consequences?
What is the answer? Start with the conclusion
If EZ WAY shows a customs push for goods you did not buy, first check with family, the seller, platform or purchasing agent, then ask the listed customs broker to verify the address, item description and value. If it still does not match, choose “Declaration mismatch — identity used for an import declaration,” complete the online statement, print and sign the emailed copy, and send it to the customs office of import. Since 1 March 2026, online authorization for personal simplified express declarations requires prior confirmation; reject mismatched details and clarify them before authorizing. Customs may refer a case to prosecutors when concrete impersonation evidence exists. Criminal liability depends on the actor, intent, document and use of personal data; it is not automatically attributed to the impersonated recipient. For a fraudulently registered account, contact Trade-Van at 02-7735-2812.

2Reject mismatched authorization
If the details remain wrong, select the declaration-mismatch option and do not authorize it.
3Submit the impersonation statement
Complete the online form, print and sign it, send it to the customs office of import, and retain the records.
