Parcel arrived but with a UPS sticker on the box and no explanation. Wondering what triggers that.

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

The virtual card route gives you recourse and the transfer route gives you a lower price. Pick which you actually want.

Anyone know the actual process rather than the folklore?

Be careful reading one parcel as a rule. Two successes build a false model.

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first?

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

Everyone is an expert until the first seizure letter.

File early. The window is shorter than people think and it starts at the transaction. Not on Romania but the pattern is familiar.

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