Has anyone else had their DJI mini 3 rejected at customs?

I bought a mini 3 during the Black Friday deal, but when it was shipped to NYC, it got rejected at customs. They quoted ‘forced labor,’ and now I’m not sure what to do next… Anyone experienced this before?

Try emailing DJI directly, they might be able to help you sort this out.

Did you buy it from the official DJI website? If so, can you send us the order reference number so we can check the details?

Yes, I bought it from the official website directly. I’ll DM you the order details!

I had the same issue with my first Air3S, they sent it back to Hong Kong. The second one is stuck with customs right now too. My Avata2 went through without any problems though.

Did they offer you a refund or try to send it again? I got a really good deal and don’t want to miss out!

@Nico
They gave me the option to either refund or resend it. I went with resend because I think things will only get worse next year, and the price might go up with new tariffs.

Thanks for the info :blush:

Customs are just believing something that isn’t true.

Well, why did you force the labor?

Is that sarcasm?

Lol, forced labor? Look at DJI’s headquarters, you’re lucky if you can work there.

Is this just something random customs came up with?

What do you mean by ‘lucky’? And yes, customs are doing this to mess with Chinese companies. Look into HR 2864, it’s complete nonsense from the US.

I missed the ‘lucky’ part, haha.
