Arnold Schwarzenegger was detained by German authorities after arriving in Munich, where he failed to declare a watch manufactured by Audemars Piguet, a Swiss company, to customs agents. This incident led to potential criminal tax proceedings due to the item originating from a non-European Union country. According to a spokesperson for the customs agency, the failure to declare the item was a serious matter, prompting the authorities to take action. Schwarzenegger's team stated that he was not asked to fill out a declaration form and that he complied with officials during the detainment process. He was held for approximately three hours before being released after pre-paying the potential taxes associated with the undeclared item.
