When you order goods from Chinajiaho, they are sent by air to your home country. As such, you are importing. The formalities of the clearance of the goods through Customs will be taken care of by the courier in all normal cases, but as the importer you need to be aware of your responsibilities and find out information about import restrictions and tax/duty issues in advance of placing orders.

For general information about tax / duty / Customs refer to other Chinajiaho Knowledgebase articles here.
