Main reasons and requirements of customs inspection in recent days
Causes that may lead to scrutiny:
Undeclared items that are not listed on a commercial invoice can result in substantial fines and significant impact.
The value is too low. U.S. Customs and Border Protection has recently conducted increased audits of FBA imports (CF28 and CF29).
The corresponding requirements are as follows:
The low value has attracted the attention of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency. Importers must provide bank payment certificates with suppliers and bank payment certificates with customers, as well as contracts and purchase orders.
Raise the value of the goods, even if the quantity is large, the value of each unit shall not be less than 0.001 cents.
Ensure no infringement. When receiving goods, it is necessary to determine whether the trademark is infringing, such as SGS.
Situation of lifting cabinet and return to cabinet
In addition to the following cities, the rest are currently around 4 days on average, and the docks are still normal for the time being.
Los Angeles
There is a shortage of appointments for pick-up and return of cabinets at major docks.

The frame of the 45 is seriously missing.
After arriving at the Chicago yard, some of the cabinet's seals were cut and underloaded.
Seattle
The dock will be closed at random every Friday, so it is impossible to return the cabinet.
Houston
The wharf is not empty, and there are more cabinets to return to other places.
The dock is seriously missing a 45-foot frame.
Atlanta
Starting from March 19, the Atlanta Norfolk Southern Austell Railway Station will no longer provide frames. The motorcade should bring its own frame into the railway station and wait for the cabinets to be installed on site. When the cabinet is empty, only empty boxes will be collected. The scene will wait in line to unload the cabinet and the frame will be taken away. On Saturday/Sunday LFD, there may be a detention fee due to insufficient frames. At present, the estimated time for lifting a cabinet has increased to 2-4 hours.
The railway station does not accept empty cabinets and returns them to different places.
