AVOIDING THE RETENTION OF A PACKAGE IN CUSTOMS
If you want to avoid retention of a package customs you should follow these guidelines. Although you must also take into account that they are not a panacea and not simply follow and you are going to find any retained shipping. Ultimately it is something that depends on the customs agent, having bad day, your intuition, etc .:
As I mentioned, if the package does not exceed 22 €, initially it would not be retained, but if the lump is large has many numbers to be stopped. If your package is going to be large, ask the seller to divide your order into several different packages.
If your order exceeds 22 € but the package is small in volume, you still have a chance. Ask the seller to declare your package as a gift. If you do not know how, when ordering you can indicate something like «please, Could You declare my order as a gift to avoid Problems with custom house? thank you very much! «. All sellers, if you ask them, they do.
The package always bulge as possible. For example, if you buy a pair of boots and come with cash, ask the seller that you send them without it, thus reducing the volume and weight.
If you buy many packages, do not do it often. Go and buy a package one day and the next day buy some the other, and are not supposed to be together to get to the office and do not you stop them. If you want to buy the same day you can put the address of your colleague, family etc. So that you get to that address.
And, of course, that as light as possible. If you buy several things you ask the seller to divide the order and I will send in several packages. At first it looks you have to get out more expensive, but will then compensate for not being retained and save you all the paperwork and fees involved.
