Document release refers to the release of the customs declaration form, released refers to the release of the goods, and customs clearance means that the customs has gone through the customs clearance procedures for the goods. After customs clearance is released, the customs will send electronic data to the electronic port after customs clearance. If it is only in the released list, it means that the customs clearance has not been completed. Generally, the customs will go through customs clearance procedures for the goods within 5 working days after the goods are exported.
What is the order of customs/closing/clearing/clearing customs when exporting?
When exporting, the information will be prepared before the customs deadline, and the goods will be released for loading and departure after customs clearance, and the ship will take the goods and leave the port after completing the customs clearance procedures. Therefore, the customs clearance date is generally later than the customs closing date, and even later than the customs declaration date. And these series of actions can only be considered a complete customs clearance. Therefore, the chronological order is customs declaration < customs clearance < customs clearance < customs clearance.
