big scary monsters posted:aren't gifts exempt from import duty anyway? not in here, a gift or a commercial package is the same thing for customs, what matters is if the value is under 35 eur, but that is not the value written there, that is the value that they decide its worth it, unless you can provide a invoice/receipt that says otherwise

so, writing a ridiculously low amount as value and declaring as gift, will make sure that it gets selected for customs and held ransom because they know exactly it's not a gift of that value

Symbolic Butt posted:amazon has a pre-paid import taxes thing that just doesn't work here because when it gets into customs people there don't care Celexi posted:it is, UPS and a few others offer it, and it does work because whenever i used i didnt pay taxes nor the person receiving it and yeah amazon is one of the ones that use it customs and taxes are a different thing. taxes can (in some cases) be pre-paid, customs can't.

continents mean next to nothing when it comes to mail delivery times, and certainly nothing when it comes to duties and taxes. you'd have to go a) US & Canada ("oh wow look at the exotic local canadian stuff i got!") b) EU only c) Australia & New Zealand maybe? d) everyone else, including a good chunk of Europe, go gently caress themselves
