International trade can be complex and time-consuming, but it is crucial for businesses that import or export goods to understand one of the most critical steps in the process: customs clearance. Customs clearance is the procedure you must follow to legally import or export goods across international borders. The process can be daunting, but Suntex guide will help you navigate it more easily. 

Inspection of Documents
The most common documents required for clearance are:
ـ Proof of insurance
ـ Invoice
ـ Port spending (when applicable)
ـ A packing list
ـ Certificate of origin (when applicable) 
ـ Air waybill, inland bill of lading, through bill of lading, and ocean bill of lading 
ـ Pre-shipment inspection certificate (when applicable)
ـ Transportation invoice

Tax and Duty Payment
After your shipment has been inspected and all required import documentation has been filed, you’ll need to pay any taxes or duties owed on the goods before Customs will release them for delivery. The amount of tax and duty owed depends on several factors, including the type of goods you’re importing, their declared value, and the applicable customs laws.

Shipment Release
After Customs inspects and assesses the goods, they are released from the warehouse where they have been held. The release process can vary depending on the type of imported goods but typically involves paying any customs duties or taxes owed. Once the release paperwork has been completed, the importer can take possession of the goods and move them to their final destination.
