thats slower than usual
signature requirements slow things down and do not obviously reduce loss
winter shipping into a cold country risks freezing, which is a different problem from heat and gets discussed less
be patient with support
coming back to this summer into a hot country is the risk. order in a cooler month if you have the choice

a seizure letter is usually the end of it. you have lost the parcel and that is almost always the whole consequence
split shipments arriving weeks apart is normal and is usually a stock thing, not a customs thing
declared value, do you go low or realistic
