According to the news released by the customs, recently, when the customs officer of Taluo Customs under Kunming Customs inspected a ticket of "beer" declared for export in the form of border people's mutual market trade at the Taluo port, they found that there was a large amount of RMB cash hidden in the 14 beer cartons at the bottom of the truck compartment of the truck, and after counting, a total of 13.9958 million yuan.

Wu Guoxiong (Shenzhen), a senior lawyer specializing in customs law, said that according to the Announcement No. 72 of 2007 of the General Administration of Customs, the limit of RMB cash carried by inbound and outbound passengers is 20,000 yuan.

Since the RMB involved in the case was hidden, the Customs will generally determine that it is a smuggling act that evades customs supervision. Once it is determined to be a smuggling act, the RMB involved in the case will be confiscated in accordance with the Regulations on the Implementation of Customs Administrative Penalties.
