Campaign:NHNE/General/Customs Declarations

Each ship is required to hold an accurate list of the contents of each cargo item as part of the standard Ships Papers.

Description

The Customs Declarations are one of the pieces of standard ship administration that will be inspected by the port authorities and those other authorities that may, from time-to-time, board the vessel. The document must contain the following information:

• The cargo to which the declaration applies
• The person declaring the contents
• The contents listed completely and accurately

The contents of a given cargo will attract both Tax and (potentially) Legal Prohibition based on the declared contents.
