The answer

You are not at fault for selling permissible goods in a lawful and legitimate manner. The responsibility for the buyer's evasion of customs duties lies solely with him, for a person is only accountable for his own actions and is not questioned about the actions of others, as Allah Almighty says: "And whoever earns sin, he earns it only against himself" (An-Nisa: 111). A Muslim is required to advise, enjoin good, and forbid evil to the best of his ability.
