Taipei Customs held a briefing session on January 28, 2026, at the Far Glory Free Zone to disseminate relevant regulations to air express operators. The session aimed to remind operators of the importance of truthful express consignment declarations. 

Taipei Customs stated that the Real-Name Authentication System for Express Consignments has become increasingly prevalent and represents an important trend in the future development of customs clearance procedures. Information regarding imported goods that has been pre-confirmed by importers on the Real-Name Authentication Platform will be referenced and compared with the declarations submitted by operators. Taipei Customs therefore reminds express operators to declare imported goods accurately and truthfully to avoid penalties imposed by Customs. 

In addition, Taipei Customs noted that if express consignments fall under any of the categories stipulated in Paragraph 1, Article 12 of the Regulations Governing Customs Clearance Procedures for Air Express Consignments, such as goods subject to import or export control regulations, the consignments must be cleared through a general import/ export declaration in accordance with the relevant regulations.

Furthermore, pursuant to Paragraph 1, Article 10 of the aforementioned Regulations, express operators shall affix invoices together with identifiable barcodes or labels to import and export express consignments to facilitate customs inspection. Failure to comply with the regulations may result in warnings or fines ranging from NT$6,000 to NT$30,000.

Taipei Customs emphasized that express operators must declare express consignments truthfully. Where the goods are subject to import regulations, a general customs declaration must be submitted accordingly. Taipei Customs will continue to maintain close communication with relevant enterprises and work collaboratively to foster a secure, compliant, and efficient customs clearance environment.
