Summary, using only the sources cited. **General information, not legal advice** ; always check the version in force on the Tax Agency’s e-office and in the BOE: 1. **The letter:** a notification of detention, not a fine. 2. **Deadline:** 10 working days to consent or object; with no reply, customs may deem consent to destruction. 3. **Small consignments:** post or courier, three units or fewer or under 2 kg; simplified procedure if the holder of the decision asked for it. 4. **If you object:** the holder of the decision must start proceedings within 10 working days; otherwise the detention is lifted. 5. **Costs:** reimbursed by the holder of the decision, which can claim them back later. 6. **Criminal Code, Art. 274:** refers to conduct “for industrial or commercial purposes”. 7. **Forum rules:** no tips on getting around checks, splitting shipments or mis-declaring ([about the forum](https://superreps.net/t/about/110)). And be careful with messages asking for payments over a supposed “customs problem”: it’s a well-known scam, see [Staying safe](https://superreps.net/t/staying-safe-scams-middlemen-privacy/106). --- _[View the full topic](https://superreps.net/t/falsificaciones-y-aduana-en-espana-que-ocurre-si-retienen-un-paquete-con-ropa-o-accesorios/360)._
