To shorten the time of clearance of the imported or exported goods, an enterprise enjoying convenient clearance may, within three days after the departure of imported goods and prior to the arrival thereof at the port, or within three days after the exported goods are transported to the place under the supervision of the Customs, handle the declaration formalities with the Customs and submit related documents in advance if the name, specification and quantity for its goods can be determined; such enterprise may be entitled to direct inspection and release by the Customs at the supervision site upon arrival of its goods.

 To shorten the working hours of document examination for the Customs to determine commodity category, examine and approve the dutiable value or identify the country of origin, an enterprise enjoying convenient clearance may also apply to the Customs for prior determination of the goods prior to formal declaration according to relevant Customs provisions.
