Entry Inspection

Entry inspection is the process where authorities check goods and luggage as they enter a country to ensure compliance with laws and regulations. This involves examining shipments for things like illegal items, pests, or standards violations, and verifying necessary documents. The goal is to protect the country's health, safety, economy, and environment while facilitating lawful trade. Inspections can be routine or targeted, and may involve physical checks or reviewing paperwork, all to prevent illegal, harmful, or non-compliant items from entering the country.
