When you land you need to submit a form (called a B4) of your personal belongings you plan to import. You can list major categories (kitchenware, books, clothing, etc) for most stuff but list expensive electronics, vehicles, valuable jewelry separate. If you submit the list to the customs agent at the time you land, you can import them duty and tax free (at that time or sometime later).
