Topic starter   [#37804]

Got a letter from the customs office about a parcel from Georgia. Reading it carefully before I do anything.

What I have learned is that the 27 day mark is the point to start the process, not the point to panic.

Canada Post scans are generated at the hub, so a silent tracking page is not evidence of a problem for the first 27 days.

What is the thing you check first now?

The sticker on the box is just so you know they were in there. It is the letter that matters.

Check the register yourself rather than trusting the number printed on the site.

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first? Three years in on a redelivery and it lines up.

“Registered with” is doing an enormous amount of work in that sentence.

Photograph everything.

File early. The window is shorter than people think and it starts at the transaction.

Fees like that are charged by the carrier, not the state, which is why they are hard to contest.

Photograph everything before you open it. Ten seconds, settles most disputes. Not on a redelivery but the pattern is familiar.

Be careful reading one parcel as a rule. Two successes build a false model.

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