Chinese customs clean up ‘luxury’ smugglers.
The General Administration of Customs People’s Republic of China (GACC) has become increasingly successful in its ongoing crackdown on tobacco, liquor and luxurygoods smuggling through airports, ports and international border crossing points.
The GACC points to multiple examples where its officers have confiscated significant quantities of concealed tobacco, liquor, cosmetics and luxurygoods items – particularly watches.
These ongoing efforts also include two separate incidents in the last year where it has confiscated tobacco goods and prosecuted both smugglers and airport staff involved in the incidents.
