with the Import and Export (Registration) Regulations, Chapter 60
and/or the Industrial Training (Clothing Industry) Ordinance, Chapter
318, Laws of Hong Kong, every person who imports or exports any
article other than an exempted article* is required to lodge with
the Commissioner of Customs and Excise an accurate and complete
import/export declaration within 14 days after the importation/exportation
of the article and pay the required declaration charges. Any late
