Clearing customs formalities for import and export goods is customs clearance. After customs clearance, the customs will no longer supervise the goods. Usually, customs clearance is for some export goods. Some goods still need to be supervised after customs release, such as bonded goods, temporarily allowed import and export goods, tax-exempt goods, etc.

In the process of customs supervision, customs clearance is the last link. The focus of this link is to re-examine the work of the above links. The specific content of the review includes the following points:

(1) Whether the customs clearance procedures for export goods are completely legal.

(2) Whether the customs declaration form and accompanying documents are complete, accurate and valid.

(3) Whether the goods inspection records and annotations are in compliance with regulations and accurate.

(4) Whether the taxes on export goods have been paid.

(5) Whether the registration and filing records of supervised goods are complete and compliant.

(6) Whether there are certain violations (mainly smuggling) that have not been punished.

After the above review work is completed, the customs can release the export goods. The specific procedures are as follows:

1. Customs releases goods at the entry and exit sites and completes customs clearance

(1) Customs releases goods at the entry and exit sites: Customs no longer supervises the import and export goods, approves the goods to leave the customs, and stamps the customs release stamp on the relevant documents.

(2) Customs clearance: After completing the customs procedures for import and export goods, the customs officially ends supervision.

2. Loading goods

The salesperson handles the departure procedures for the goods (be sure to bring the export loading certificate with the customs release stamp) and asks the customs to issue a certificate copy (if the export company needs it).

During the customs clearance stage, the salesperson must be very alert. Pay special attention to the preparation of documents, loading and unloading of goods, and shipping time. Only when customs clearance is on time and smoothly can the goods be shipped to the destination port on time. After the goods are loaded and shipped, the salesperson should prepare the relevant bills and bills of lading according to the different settlement methods, and strive to collect the payment on time and in full.
