Ordered from Greece for the first time and the debit card payment triggered every fraud check the bank has.

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.

The published rule and the enforcement pattern are different documents and only one of them affects your parcel.

Small, light and boring passes. Large, branded and interesting gets examined.

The address matters more than the contents after a while, and nobody warns you about that.

Would rather do this properly than quickly.

Split orders. Two small parcels beat one large one for reasons that have nothing to do with price.

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first?

Do you contact the customs office or the carrier first? How long have you been on Canada?

What do you do about the fee? Do you just pay it? Tolerance was my main issue with Canada too.
