Card was declined by the bank rather than the shop, which is a different problem to the one I thought I had.

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.

What is the thing you check first now?

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first?

“Registered with” is doing an enormous amount of work in that sentence. How long have you been on a virtual card?

File early. The window is shorter than people think and it starts at the transaction.

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

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

The sticker on the box is just so you know they were in there. It is the letter that matters.

Fees like that are charged by the carrier, not the state, which is why they are hard to contest.

If you name a shop here, say whether you are affiliated. First line is enough.
