1 / 4認得Recognize看到這個英文,我知道它大概是什麼。I see it, and I know roughly what it is.
Customs
KUHS-tumz
海關
세관
Where you'll see it你會在哪裡看到
- 機場領完行李後的出口
- 入境時的申報畫面或表格
- 國際包裹的追蹤通知
- 免稅店的說明
What it actually means白話說
海關:查你帶進美國的東西。領完行李後會經過這一關,官員可能問你有沒有帶食物、現金或要申報的物品,也可能請你把行李放上 X 光機或打開。
Common mistake常見的誤會
Customs 查的是東西,Immigration 查的是人和證件,是兩關。另外 customs 也有「習俗」的意思,在機場和包裹通知上看到的都是海關。
