## Summary

A 31-year-old Singaporean man was stopped at Changi Airport after declaring two trading cards, while officers found 105 One Piece cards worth an estimated S$400,000 in his luggage. The discovery matters because the case has been referred to Singapore Customs for investigation into the undeclared items.

The cards were found during baggage screening at Terminal 4 on 2 November, along with a luxury-brand bracelet. One Piece is a Japanese manga and anime franchise whose rare trading cards can sell for thousands of dollars. Singapore’s Immigration and Checkpoints Authority reminded travellers to declare newly acquired goods that exceed duty-free or GST import allowances.
