Topic starter   [#26525]

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

Filing the paperwork early is worth more than arguing later about whose fault it was.

A card that works domestically can fail on an international merchant for dull, uninteresting, entirely legitimate reasons.

A written confirmation email after every phone call is the cheapest insurance there is.

How long would you wait before starting the process?

Three month limits are cumulative across parcels in more places than people realise.

What do you do about the fee? Do you just pay it?

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

File early. Tolerance was my main issue with Bitcoin too.
