There are country-specific facts and regulations that may affect your international shipments. For example, shipping used clothing to Mexico may be prohibited by Mexican customs unless the recipient can prove travel to and from the ship-from country. Items made in China sent to Mexico may carry a 500+% customs duty and/or taxes, possibly causing the recipient to abandon the items.
Some countries allow a gift exemption on imports. For example, Canada allows $60 Canadian, many European and Eastern European countries allow $45 Euros, and Japan allows 10000 Japanese Yen (approximately $95 US). Mexico and Colombia do not allow gift exemptions.
All duties and taxes are the responsibility of the recipient. Contact us if you need more information before shipping internationally.
