as you are assured of a reliable, trustworthy and ongoing service
using our services. Always ask your CUSTOMS DEPT in your country
for classification duties and tax requirements on the goods you
want to import. PLEASE NOTE MANY COUNTRIES HAVE TARIFFS &
YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF THESE BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK TO IMPORTING.
e.g. USA has a quota on clothing. All EU countries have quotas on
textiles and clothing which you must add on to the cost. South Africa charge: 40% import
duties and 14% VAT (sales tax) but no quota on the amount you can
import of clothing. Remember also the more you export the cheaper
it is. When you pay for items worth say 5000 baht you may find the
shipping is double. Thailand has quotas too on coffee and rice.
SHIPPING INTO THE USA: Has risen and now based daily. Due to the terrorism threats;
oil fluctuations, insurance hikes many exports & stand alone products. eg. wood tables in FCL will have a set
charge. However when shipping multiple goods in FCL loads then the
tarrifs for FCL will increase. As at August 2004 the freight charges are
subject to change daily due to oil fluctuation prices / terrorism
/ insurance / $ changes / & the freight you wish to export. Items like tin,
aluminium products have
increased in Thailand by 15% making it hard on Thai exporters
competing & China is on a new phase of development making some
items like steel, cement prices to increase. LCL into some ports
are now based on the nearest 0.5% over the 1cbm. Shipping rate are
changing daily now. If shipping foodstuffs & cosmetics or
chemical bottles to the USA the
companies you buy off must be affiliated with the FDA in the USA.
Without this you will lose your shipment if you send to USA.

US FDA Regulations for
Importation of Food Articles
As a part of the Bio-terrorism Act 2002,
the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has announced new
implementations for food shipments imported into the US with effective
from December 12th, 2003. There are two major provisions
impacting DHL Customers:
Registration
of Facilities
The FDA will require that domestic and
foreign facilities that manufacture, process, pack, or hold food for
human or animal consumption in the United States register with the FDA
by December 12, 2003. Farms, retail facilities, restaurants and
non-profit food facilities in which food is prepared for or served
directly to the consumer are exempt from these requirements.
Additionally, facility registration is not required for shipments
from one private person to another private person (e.g. Christmas
gifts). Without proper
registration, food shipments are subject to refusal to enter the US.
Prior
Notice of Importation
The FDA will require that U.S. purchasers
or U.S. importers or their agents or foreign shippers submit to the FDA
Prior Notice on the importation of food starting no later than December
12, 2003. Prior Notice must be submitted no less than four hours before
flight arrival but may not be submitted more than five days prior to
shipment arrival.
Self submission of Prior Notice can be
done electronically at www.access.fda.gov.
Alternatively, you can fill up the Prior Notice Submission Data Form (PN
Data)(click
here to download the form) and attach the form to your shipments.
DHL will process the Prior Notice submission on your behalf with a
service fee of $3 per Prior Notice with a minimum of $25.00 per
shipment. The fee will be charged to the importer or purchaser.
Important Information
Food items sent from one private person to
another private person do not require Registration of Facilities, but
are subject to Prior Notice requirement. Please indicate clearly on the
Airwaybill and invoice that the items are "Personal gift for non
business reason".
More details are available on the FDA Web
site at www.fda.gov/oc/bioterrorism/bioact.html. Further guidance on the
relevant requirements and the assistance that DHL can provide as well as
useful questions and answers are listed below. Should you have any
questions regarding this issue, please do not hesitate to contact DHL
