Customs Question - My 1st time importing firearm parts
Customs Question
Hello, I’ve just order a few items from Brownells that’s going to take about 5 months to arrive (Special Order for an item they don’t normally stock).
I’ve already have the import permit and Brownells also have a copy
My question is when it arrives to customs what happens next.
1. How do they inform you that the items have arrived
2. How do they get a copy of the import permit eg Do I post it, email it or turn up to customs
3. In Auckland is customs at the airport
4. How do you then receive you item, eg do you have to pick it up in person or do they release the item to continue on their postal way
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Trevor
p.s. Items order where 30 round Mag, Pistol Grip and Adjustable stock.
Customs Question - My 1st time importing firearm parts
Says so on the letter customs sends you. Just got mine for bringing in a couple of 30rd mags. They request original import permit and a copy of FAL as item is "subject to restrictions under the Arms Act 1983 and a permit to import under the act may need to be submitted to customs for endorsement"
They go on after and mention that if the item is intended to be used for an A cat weapon to contact Customs. And be in the shit I assume. Or be educated.
The arms officer seems amicable and profession via email communications.
