Guidance on declaration
Updated over a week ago

Hey guys!🥰

When you are shipping something, you might hear the term declared value. Normally we talk about declared value, we will ask the following questions:

1. What is declared value?

2. How much should I declare?

3. What is personalized declare and system declare?

  • What is declared value?

Declared value is the cost of a shipped item as stated by its shipper. Customers do not need to pay for it. Declared value is an option when calculating freight charges. Customs use this value to clear your shipment and determine taxes and duties.

  • How much should I declare?

We suggest you to judge a reasonable declared value based on the value of goods in your package and local tax threshold.

Also please refer to the declaration requirements of each shipping route.

The amount you fill in will be displayed on the package invoice. When your package is randomly checked by customs, they will check the package's declaration information. If customs suspect that the shipment is not declared properly, then there is a possibility that your package will be held.

BUT do not worry too much!

From our history data, almost all parcels can pass customs smoothly!

Welcome to use our shipping routes for fantastic international shipping!

  • What is personalized declare and system declare?

We offer two declare methods, system declare and personalized declare.

  1. System declare is an easy way for new customers. Pandabuy system will declare randomly according to the categories of products.

    If you do not have a high requirement on declaration, you can use this way and write the total declared value. Pandabuy system will help you declare it.

    Note: It may happen that not all of the products will be displayed on the declaration invoice since Pandabuy system will declare randomly according to the categories of products if you choose system declare. Do not worry that the orders were missing, they have all been packed in the package.

  2. Personalized declare is used for customers who have customized requirements in declaration. This option can edit your declaration info such as category, qty, weight, unit declared value.

    Steps to amend the Personalized declaration:

Note: Please note that different routes may have different restrictions about the type of declaration, the number of items declared and the total amount declared.

Thanks for reading! Wish you a nice day:)
