Why do packages get stuck in customs?

Customs hold shipments to ensure that the contents or products in the shipment are legal. It is also important the items’ value is correctly stated in the documents. However, you cannot do anything to halt or speed up these random tests and procedures. Attempting to do so may halt the process or result in serious consequences.

Unfortunately, choosing a slower mode of delivery can take much longer than you think. The process involved in customs clearing also takes longer than express. It is one of the unpleasant procedures in many destinations. You can only do one thing: just wait for your package to arrive.

It is important to read the custom regulation of the destination country before shipping your consignment.
