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

Filing the paperwork early is worth more than arguing later about whose fault it was.

What changed my experience was splitting orders rather than ordering larger and less often.

The reference number on the letter is the only way anyone will find the file again, so it goes in the subject line of everything.

Happy to hear I am overthinking it.

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

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

Written confirmation email after every phone call. Cheapest insurance there is. Two months in on Ireland and it lines up.

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

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