Hello,

You may appear in person, and give your reply or the fine, whatever they say,

It is advised that if you are called, you must appear personally.

1. File your reply stating that you have no objection if the good is confiscated.

2. The customs will confiscate the good and levy a penalty on you which you should be happy to pay.

If you want to appear in person then just appear in person and say that you have no objection to the confiscation of goods.

Importing a sex toy is an offence.

You may have to give a reply notice to the customs department from where you received the show cause notice.

Instead of agitating on the issue, you may claim innocence of law prohibiting the import of such items, and can authorise the authorities to confiscate the indented item and request them to condone the requirement of your personal appearance in view of the explanation given in your reply notice.

1. If you appear in the P.H. you shall have to either accept theb fact that you have ordered for the said banned article or deny it.

2. If you admit/accept the said chage/fact then you shall be charged with fine and the article will be confiscated.

3. If you do not admit/accept the fact/charge then the result will be the same as refusing to appear for P.H. informing that the article has not been ordered by you.
