Hengqin Customs seized a case of smuggling silver particles into the country

On March 3rd, Hengqin Customs, a subsidiary of Gongbei Customs, seized a passenger who had bound over 14 kilograms of silver particles into the country at the Hengqin Port's on-board personnel inspection hall.

At around 14:00 on the same day, customs officers were conducting supervision at the entry channel of the Hengqin Port's accompanying personnel inspection hall when they discovered that a woman had abnormal behavior and immediately intercepted her for inspection. After further inspection, customs officers found 12 packages of silver particles bound with plastic film on his waist and abdomen, totaling 14.46 kilograms. Recently, after professional appraisal, the purity of this batch of silver particles has been determined to be pure silver.

Customs reminder: According to relevant regulations, those who evade customs supervision by hiding and bring goods or items that should be taxed according to law into the country are considered smuggling activities. If the circumstances are serious enough to constitute a crime, they will be held criminally responsible in accordance with the law.
