Topic starter   [#27739]

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

Chargeback windows are shorter than people think and the clock starts at the transaction, not at the complaint.

Declarations that contradict the return address are the ones that get opened.

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

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

Curious what other people do differently here.

A privacy service registered three months ago on a domain claiming twenty years of trading is a contradiction.

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first? Currently on Wise myself.

Silent tracking in the first week is normal. Scanning happens at hubs, not continuously.

The address matters more than the contents eventually. Changing what you order when the address is flagged changes nothing.

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

No referral links. Shortened links and tracking parameters are the usual offenders.
