It has been previously clarified in answer no. 33853 when the collection of customs duties is a legitimate right that should not be evaded through deception. If those conditions are met, then what the questioner did is impermissible. However, if the situation is otherwise, which is often the case, then collecting customs duties is an unlawful appropriation of people's wealth, and there is no harm in using stratagems to avoid paying those funds, or some of them.
