EvilMonkee Posted Wednesday at 12:27 Share Posted Wednesday at 12:27 Believe me, none of that will work with UPS who are simply the biggest bunch of idiots I have ever dealt with. Plus the OP was talking about Parcelforce not UPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudotectonic Posted Wednesday at 12:50 Share Posted Wednesday at 12:50 The method is carrier-agnostic because it doesn't matter who is the courier, the parcel has to go through customs at some point. Having the seller print it out is the best way to make sure it stays declared all the way. At no point in time customs can get spooked by an undeclared gun shaped object. novioman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incorrect, you are assuming that the carrier doesn't also act as the customs agent - which UPS and others often do. PF go via Border Force and Customs the others frequently don't. Believe me UPS are an issue and avoid using them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if UPS has a habit of fucking up, all the more reason to tell the seller to attach the declaration from the get go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl Posted Wednesday at 20:25 Share Posted Wednesday at 20:25 Not impoIted for a few years but I always used to e mail border force with details of what was coming and my defence as soon as I received tracking details. As well as this I used to e mail sellers a letter addressed to Border Force to attach to package, Never had any issues. Though as I said this was several years ago, should still work though.

Its not hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What even are you on about? Someone acting on behalf of another person doesn't mean they are the same person. Customs agents are not the one seizing your parcel. I get you are mad about UPS. Which is fine. I am not saying UPS is good either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDcase Posted 16 hours ago Share Posted 16 hours ago (edited) When I buy from abroad I always include my UKARA with label in the address to make sure it appears clearly on the box. Not had a problem with customs but had to pay taxes a couple of times. Edited 16 hours ago by EDcase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
