That first one sounds like someone covering up for a dipsh?t who knows nothing rather than forward planning to prevent loophole abuse.

also, why would you let a shipment from Heard Island into your country since it is not a port operation, doesn’t that sound like smuggling or deliberate deception. These is customs guys must be gullible.

What a total crock of sh*t. These imbeciles wouldn't know sh*t from clay. Trying to say items were shipped mislabelled, and shippers were using Heard and Macquarie Islands as the origin point - when they don't even have commercial port facilities!! A shipping label like that would be stopped at the border, it wouldn't even be in any computerised recording system - and all shipping and port handling is fully computerised today.

You have enough trouble trying to ship items when you're not a regular shipper - even using a shipping agent on a one-off basis brings about a host of questions.

That uninhabited island explanation is rubbish. They are saying the islands are countries which they’re not and even if they were, they are uninhabited so how do you tranship goods. They are just trying to spin an embarrassing blunder.
