Minimum Import Price restrictions regulate imports entering the domestic market for home consumption and do not apply to goods warehoused under Customs control exclusively for re-export. A declared value below the Minimum Import Price, or higher National Import Database data alone, does not establish undervaluation without corroborative evidence of under-invoicing, additional consideration, or deliberate misdeclaration. Where the Minimum Import Price premise does not apply, rejection and redetermination of declared value cannot survive. The declared assessable value was restored, consequential confiscation, redemption fine and penalty were set aside, and re-export was permitted subject to procedural requirements.
