[Discussion] we are measuring jurisdiction at the wrong time and calling it noise
Posting this as a discussion rather than a claim: we are measuring jurisdiction at the wrong time and calling it noise.
Asked the supplier what documentation travels with the shipment and got a straight answer. That was reassuring in itself.
Clearance took four days and the carrier took eleven. I had been blaming entirely the wrong stage for a year.
Got a request for information and treated it as a seizure for two days before actually reading it. It was neither dramatic nor difficult.
Ask me anything specific. Anything general I will probably get wrong.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Address redacted from the screenshot above. Post the wording of the notice, never the header.
personal import rules are not the same as commercial import rules
A hold, a request for information and a seizure are distinct administrative events. Each has its own process and deadlines, and the notice itself states which one you have.

Is this a hold, a request for information, or a seizure notice?
That delay was at clearance, not with the carrier. The lane table separates them for exactly this reason.
Shipped from regional stock or from origin?
if it matters, ask somebody qualified in your own jurisdiction
A hold, a request for information and a seizure are distinct administrative events.
Disagreeing with this line: that is the position in a different country and it does not transfer.
jurisdiction first, everything else is downstream
research-use-only labelling is not a customs category
Disagree — that is the position in one country and this thread is about another. They are genuinely different.
This. Ordering from regional stock takes the entire question off the table, which is why it comes up in every one of these threads.
The rules where I live changed between two orders six months apart. Nothing was announced; I found out by reading.
the answer for the UK does not apply anywhere else
How long has it been sitting, and at which stage?
