For import and export customs clearance in Wuzhou, the following documents should be submitted to the customs:

　　Generally, imported goods require two copies of the Import-Export Customs Declaration Form.

If a refund of domestic taxes is required after the goods are exported, a separate special tax refund declaration form must be filled out.

After customs review and inspection, the customs official shall sign the original transport documents, release them, and return the customs declaration form to the shipper or consignee for pickup or shipment of goods.
