Default question about CN22 customs form

when i ship my eshop item to the buyer
i fill in "CN22 customs form"
I suppose declare the item as "gift" would be the most smooth way to get pass the "customs"

However, I would like the buyer to see a little advertisement when he receive the small packet
by either print "my domain name, slogan" on the item or insert a small flyer

If customs open my small packet to check, and see these stuff (domain, slogan)
Would custom think that this "gift-declared" item is actually commercial and my small packet will go into some trouble ?

pls advice

Default Are they really gifts?

Are you really giving things away? If so, I'll take 1,000 please. If not, then you will need to do things right and declare the value and pay any duties necessary. I've seen several businesses get into trouble over this exact same practice.

If you're sending quite a few gifts a week from a business, that starts to raise a flag that will eventually get a visit from the local tax collector.
