#shipping-customs 2026-01-19

Monday12 messages4 participantstimes are UTC
Highlights from this day
  • hair_month_four — a port stall is not the same as a customs hold and the tracking language usually distinguishes them 10:20
  • vat_on_import — parcel is sitting at a port with no movement, is that customs or just a port 10:27
  • meniscus_mel — a seizure letter is usually the end of it. you have lost the parcel and that is almost always the whole consequence 10:29
VO

genuine question vat is usually charged on declared value plus shipping, and the handling fee is often more than the vat, anyway

the transit table is pinned and built from what members actually reported, not from what suppliers quote
