Prohibited and Restricted Goods Screening
The responsibility to carry out prohibited and restricted goods screening falls upon every party involved in a purchase, from the seller, the marketplace, logistics companies, to the carriers.
Hurricane will help you comply with customs regulations
If an order is placed and the goods have restrictions placed on them, the seller, buyer, or distributor has the responsibility to acquire any permissions or licences required, as well as ensure that the parcel being sent is compliant with all local customs regulations prior to shipping/exporting.
Failure to do so can result in parcels being seized or destroyed, along with heavy fines per violation and potential imprisonment if the violation is severe enough.
