English is not good enough for American customs. Is there a problem? Go to America to have a baby.

You don't need to speak perfect English to talk to the customs, as long as it is short, concise, easy to understand and even with words. If English is still not at ease, you can help enter the customs in the following ways:

1. Seek the help of Chinese translation.

When customs officers ask questions in English, you can show a small card with Chinese translation under your passport, and then China staff will help you.
