Trying to work out whether Portugal is workable at the moment, because the rules I find online contradict each other.

The three month rule is cumulative across parcels in more places than people realise.

Small, light and boring passes. Large, branded and interesting gets examined.

Anyone know the actual process rather than the folklore?

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

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

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first?

Three month limits are cumulative across parcels in more places than people realise. Four months in on Wise and it lines up.

Reminder that a tracking number is not required in the post, but the dates and the carrier are.

Written confirmation email after every phone call. Cheapest insurance there is.

Everyone is an expert until the first seizure letter.

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

Same here.

Not on Wise but the pattern is familiar.

The published rule and the enforcement pattern are different documents. Only one of them affects you. Not on Wise but the pattern is familiar.

What do you do about the fee? Do you just pay it? How long have you been on Wise?

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