Do they open packages in customs?

How often does customs open packages?

  • I have a package coming from the netherlands to the usa, how often does customs open packages?? what makes them open packages?? Is it at random, or the size of the package or weight or what?? Do they typically open like 10% of packages, or do they open almost all packages??

  • Answer:

    I order from China all the time and my packages stay at US Customs less than 24 hours, and none of them have been opened. It's actually less than 10% of packages opened, I would assume, they definitely do not have the time to open all packages. They just know what to look for when it comes to opening packages. They know what looks suspicious and what doesn't. I'd say you'll be fine.
