My parcel is stuck with customs since 28 Dec 2010. But i have not received any notice from them.

Wait n watch as suggested by Sandeep. Dont panic and dont call them. 28 Dec is not that long ago. If you happen to get a call letter, then you may reply with invoice copy and the reason for import. You can even fax these docs. I would suggest not to visit them personally and send the docs through fax/mail. If that does not help, then you may have to send someone on your behalf. But this may take upto 45 days. So be patient.

All the best. !!!

It says clearly that it has been detained as it is a "prohibited article". Unfortunately it has landed in Delhi, something I cannot understand. It will be difficult to follow up from here. Do you have a good friend in Delhi? A personal visit will help.

Hi Guys

I dont know i should be happy or sad as I received the customs notice today. The letter is dated 28 dec 2010 and states that i have to reply within 15 days or they will dispose the parcel  Bang Head

But unfortunately i am in Mumbai and cant go to Delhi. What documents do i have to supply them with? Should i reply them from Mumbai itself? Oh i am so confised what to do ? i see my Axn going down the drain Bang Head

Also if someone in delhi can help me out with it i would be grateful to him.

Regards

As I had mentioned, if the parcel is detained, the letter is bound to be dispatched (on papers, even if does not reach you  Tongue). I am sure the letter would indicate the documents required and asked for. Usually they ask for original invoice along with a justification letter for the reason of import.
Also, check if it says that you can fax/mail those documents to them. Being physically present for appraisal is usually an option given.

I personally feel that there may not be a need to go to Delhi. Your parcel would not have been appraised but since it contains prohibited items (as they call it), you are being asked for the justification post which they shall do the appraisal accordingly. They should (hopefully) release the parcel once they get a response after assessing the duty on it.

All the very best.  Thumbs Up

Its not necessary that the notice reaches you. My parcel had been detained and after a month of no movement in the tracking, I called and enquired and it had come to customs. The custom people claim that they had sent a letter, but they dont have any proof that they had sent!
I think they just update in their system that the notice had been sent, and may be workers who are in the lower hierarchy who are supposed to send may as well eat up the postal money Cheesy or I dont know y they dont send. It had happened with my friend too.

True.. I agree. The point is not about letter reaching you... but as per the protocol, the letter has to be dispatched and it does (atleast on records). It reaches you or not, is not their headache  Bang Head. Often it reaches so late that there is no use of it.  Sad
Sad but its true  Sad

+1 foamybuilder! It happened with me and my friend as well.

In such cases, we should bounce back and assert that legally going by Customs Exim policy (HS Codes), Model planes (without Radio) is not a prohibited item.

1. It does not contains Radio Tx(even though it would need one later)
2. It is not at all 'Toy' meant for children and any harmful chemicals even used to paint/manufacture is absolutely safe for careful adult use.

Many flyers in Bangalore have personally justified the customs in a cordial manner and got through by paying only the 'legal' charges.

Ankur, you may better send the invoice and a small writeup specifically outlining that it is for peaceful adult use and not a toy and would be used for educational project. You may also try to get a phone appointment from the Superintendent at the PAD (customs) after they receive the docs and explain the case. Sometimes  mundane invoice sent by HK on such big parcel like AXN (biggest for me till date) might lead customs to investigate more. Stress that it is a 'FOAM' plane to reduce their paranoia.

But as Saurabh has explained, a 'Personal' visit may resolve the problem mush faster.
