Ordered from Serbia for the first time and the prepaid card payment triggered every fraud check the bank has.

Chargeback windows are shorter than people think and the clock starts at the transaction, not at the complaint.

Mostly posting so the next person has something to search.

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first?

The cheapest option costs more once you price in the failure rate.

How do I find the national register if I do not read the language?

The published rule and the enforcement pattern are different documents. Only one of them affects you.

Domain age is one of the few signals that is expensive to fake and free to check.

What do you do about the fee? Do you just pay it? Currently on a sorting hub myself.

Be careful reading one parcel as a rule. Two successes build a false model. A year in on a sorting hub and it lines up.

Customs outcomes are not rulings. A parcel passing is not legal advice.

The declaration contradicting the return address is what gets it opened.

“Dispatched” means the label was printed. That is the entire meaning of the word.
