An Post has held my parcel for 20 days with no scan. Is that normal for this route or should I start the process? An Post scans are generated at the hub, so a silent tracking page is not evidence of a problem for the first 20 days.

Fees like that are charged by the carrier, not the state, which is why they are hard to contest. Side effects was my main issue with USPS too.

Photograph everything before you open it. Ten seconds, settles most disputes.

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

The sticker on the box is just so you know they were in there. It is the letter that matters. Four months in on USPS and it lines up.

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

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first?
