FAQHow to differentiate the item is general/sensitive/prohibited good?

International shipments are divided into three categories according to the functional attributes of the products: general goods, sensitive goods, and prohibited goods. MYPOZ currently only has two channels: general goods and sensitive; it refuses to accept any prohibited products.

 

General goods and sensitive goods are used to distinguish inspection standards when exporting from China to other countries. If sensitive goods are shipped using general cargo channels, it may cause inspections to fail to clear customs and deliver goods. The user may delay the receipt of the goods, or need to pay the difference in the fee of the sensitive channel before the delivery. The following pictures distinguish general goods, sensitive goods, and prohibited goods:

The above products are for reference only, it is recommended to inquire the customer service before choosing the transportation channels of the products.

 

*Note:

1. Health food, supplements, medicines, and batteries are air freight prohibited items and can only be transported by sea-sensitive channels.

2. Products with magnets (without battery) such as electronic products, electrical appliances and digital accessories can be transported by air freight sensitive channels.  

3. If the electronic products are branded, please inquire the customer service in advance before choosing the appropriate shipping channel.
