Courier consignment screening requires comprehensive technical inspection and risk-based selection for physical examination. Courier consignments must undergo non-intrusive technical screening (X-ray or other NII) using Customs, airline or airport facilities, with multi-agency screening encouraged. Physical examination is performed on consignments selected by risk-based criteria-such as nature of goods, value, weight and importer status-and selected consignments are fully examined. The Commissioner of Customs may order random or targeted physical inspections based on parameters like country of origin or specific intelligence; automated identification for examination relies on risk analysis.
