From my very vague memory, i remember as a kid when i travel back to hk with my mom, she'd tell me to go to this office in the airport and register serial # of items such as phones, cameras, and laptops...

last year when i went to the airport and did that, the person at the office told me that i dont need to cuz they aren't worth a lot?? do we still do that nowadays?? and also i'll be flying at 2am, is that office still open??

glad to hear that it's 24 hrs.. but i dont have the receipt cus some stuff are from a loooooong time ago

honsetly if i have the receipts then i dont need to register la... i can just come back n if they check i'l just show them the receipts... stupid customs!
