Dear all forum members,
I would like to share one of the bad experience with CBSA people.
I went to CBSA office for self clearance of my goods to follow which was arrived at FedEX.
When I filled goods to follow form when i land here before 6 months. I have declare 12200$ amount of total goods to follow list.
I have handed over to the clearance officer that filled form B4 stamped by CBSA officer at airport when i land here.
That clearance officer gave me one form mentioning my shipment is selected for examination of customs and other government of canada dept. he told me to call after 24 hours to know status of your shipment examinations.my shipment INR value is 10,340/- INR..
I handed over detail breakdown list including value in INR that what's things are included in shipment.he has also asked to submit stamped goods to follow form, i did that..
when next day I visit office they told me that I have to pay 201$ duty because all items are new in your shipment including vessels clothes.I told that offcier my shipment included all items that were used by me and my family.
I keep on telling him that pls give me chance to provide justification i can prove my point let's go to the shipment location and i am ready to give clarification.he told me that we can't do that and offcier who have examine your shipment is different and i got ordered from him to take 201 $ duty.
you have to pay duty and later on you file appeal for refund.
So i paid duty and received detail break up from CBSA.
My total duty was only 63$ excluding tax .
Tax amount 138$
I ask them pls explain me duty break up and tax amount they told me that it is not our duty.
But I am not feed up , I am going to file appeal for refund.
