US Customs on occasion requires additional inspections or a formal entry which is at their sole discretion and might incur additional customer charges. Please realize that these charges are not VI Cargo's and we have no control over them.

US Customs does not accept personal items in a vehicle. A vehicle is not a shipping container in the eyes of US Customs.
