At the Customs





Landing formalities and Customs regulations are about the same in all countries.

While still on board the plane the passenger is given an arrival card to fill in. He fills in his name, country of residence, purpose and length of visit, and country of destination.

After the passenger has disembarked, Immigration Control officials check his passport and visa (to see if they are in order). In some countries they check the passenger’s certificate of vaccination.

When these formalities have been completed the passenger goes to the Customs for an examination of his luggage.

The passenger is required to fill in a Customs declaration form. He must list all dutiable articles. He is to name an item stating its value and number. Personal effects may be brought in or taken out duty-free.

It is obligatory that a passenger’s luggage is carefully gone through in order to prevent smuggling. The Customs inspector may ask you to open your bags for inspection. After you pass through all Customs formalities he puts a stamp on each piece of your luggage.

Exercise 4. Match the words and their definitions.

1) vaccination a) an endorsement made upon a passport denoting that entry permission has been granted
2) effects (pl.) b) the worth of something in money or as compared with other goods
3) smuggling c) the act of vaccinating; inoculation of vaccine
4) value d) responsible, subject or exposed to something
5) stamp e) limitations; rules that strictly control what you are allowed to do and in what quantity
6) border f) a number of things to be presented for checking
7) restrictions g) an official mark set upon things chargeable with some duty or tax (showing that the duty is paid)
8) visa h) belongings, personal property
9) dutiable i) illegal import or export without payment of duties
10) list (of articles) j) the dividing line between two countries; frontier

Jane arrived at the airport two hours ago to catch her plane to London. At the check-in counter a ticket agent looked at her ticket and her baggage was checked in, i.e. weighed on the scales. Jane’s suitcases were very heavy, so she had to pay an excess baggage charge (amount of money for extra weight).

Next she was given a boarding card (a special card that allowed her to get on the plane). The boarding card had a seat number written on it, and Jane was given a window seat in the non-smoking section. Her suitcases were labeled and sent off to be loaded into the hold of the airplane.

While waiting for the flight call Jane went to the kiosk to buy a newspaper. Then she went through the security check where her carry-on luggage (the bags she was keeping with her on board the plane) was searched.

In the duty-free shop Jane had a chance to buy some things cheaply because they were not taxed.

In the departure lounge Jane joined the other passengers who were sitting and waiting for their flight call. After a few minutes Jane heard the announcement: “Flight 124 to London is now boarding at Gate Four”, – and she proceeded to the flight gate to board the plane.
