Topic starter   [#34637]

FedEx has held my parcel for 20 days with no scan. Is that normal for this route or should I start the process?

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

Happy to hear I am overthinking it.

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

File early. Same for me with a prepaid card, unfortunately.

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

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first?

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

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

Not on a prepaid card but the pattern is familiar.
