Royal Mail has held my parcel for 10 days with no scan. Is that normal for this route or should I start the process?
Customs handling fees are charged by the carrier, not the state, which is why they are so hard to contest.
What I have learned is that the 10 day mark is the point to start the process, not the point to panic.
Anyone had this route work recently, or is it closed for now?

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

Everyone is an expert until the first seizure letter. Side effects was my main issue with South Africa too.

Photograph everything before you open it. Ten seconds, settles most disputes. Not on South Africa but the pattern is familiar.
