Great news for our customers! At
MDE, we have launched a new feature that gives you
total control over the items inside your packages and the declared value of each one: the
self-managed customs proforma.
This tool gives you the freedom to directly manage all the information needed for your international shipments. Now you can
customize and declare the details of your shipments precisely, making sure every item you send has accurate, clear data for the customs authorities.
What can you do with the new self-managed customs proforma?
- Control over content and value: You can manually enter the description of the items in your package, as well as the exact value of each one, ensuring a clear and transparent declaration to customs.
- Recipient selection: You have the option to choose whether the final recipient of your package is an individual or a business. You can also enter the contact details of the person responsible for receiving the package at its destination, who will also handle any procedures with the local customs authorities if needed.
- Simple, controlled process: It will be a mandatory requirement to complete the proforma before paying for the service and to give your explicit consent so we can attach it to your package. This ensures that our MDE team carries out a technical verification of the data and can schedule your package's departure with the international carrier efficiently and without delays.
MDE will not verify that the declared value is the real one; therefore, the customer is responsible for declaring what is appropriate and will also be solely responsible for any incident or delay that may arise at customs as a result of the declared inventory and its value.
Benefits of the self-managed customs proforma
- Avoid customs delays: By providing the exact information about the items and their values, you significantly reduce the risk of your package being held at customs due to discrepancies or missing information. This speeds up the delivery process and minimizes complications.
- Transparency and compliance: Correctly meeting customs requirements is key to avoiding fines, delays, or legal problems. This new feature ensures you comply with international regulations accurately and easily.
- Flexibility for businesses and individuals: Whether you ship as an individual or a business, you can customize the recipient's details and simplify the receiving procedures at the destination.
- Greater autonomy and confidence: Being able to manage the customs details yourself gives you a sense of control over the entire shipping process, avoiding surprises or problems along the way.
Why is it important to complete the customs proforma correctly?
Completing the customs proforma properly is crucial for international shipments to arrive without problems. The customs authorities of each country require detailed information about the goods being imported, and any inconsistency can cause issues such as:
- The package being held at customs.
- Additional charges for inspections.
- Return or destruction of the goods if local regulations are not met.
With our new self-managed tool, you decide what information to provide and make sure everything is in order before your package begins its journey.
