Customs Declaration Service for Children Toys – Safe and Compliant Import Solutions by AlphaTrans

Importing children’s toys into Vietnam is a highly regulated process that requires strict compliance with safety, quality, and labeling standards. The Vietnamese government, through the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT) and Vietnam Customs, mandates that all imported toys meet QCVN 3:2019/BKHCN and related national safety standards.

At AlphaTrans, we specialize in providing a professional Customs Declaration Service for Children Toys, helping importers complete the full customs clearance process — from documentation and inspection to safety certification and delivery — quickly, accurately, and legally.

I. The Importance of Customs Declaration for Children’s Toys

Children’s toys are considered consumer safety-sensitive products, meaning they must comply with strict regulations before being distributed in the Vietnamese market. Importers are required to declare every shipment to customs and obtain safety certification before selling or distributing toys domestically.

Key reasons why customs declaration is crucial for toy imports:

  • Toys are subject to quality control, labeling, and inspection under Vietnamese law.

  • Each shipment must have an import declaration, safety test result, and conformity certificate.

  • Non-compliance may result in customs seizure, fines, or rejection at port.

By using AlphaTrans’ customs declaration services, importers can avoid these risks and ensure that every shipment complies fully with Vietnamese regulations.

II. Regulations Governing Toy Imports in Vietnam

Importing children’s toys is managed under the following key regulations:

  • QCVN 3:2019/BKHCN – National technical regulation on toy safety

  • Circular No. 28/2014/TT-BKHCN – Guidance on inspection of toy safety

  • Decision No. 3482/QD-BKHCN – Designation of toy testing organizations

  • Vietnam Customs Law 2014 – Import declaration and classification of goods

Under these regulations, imported toys must:

  • Be tested for mechanical, physical, and chemical safety

  • Carry Vietnamese-language labels with origin, age group, and warnings

  • Be registered for declaration of conformity before distribution
