It comes as a nasty surprise to many people that the recipients of gifts are sent from abroad, to pay any duty on the point before she owed to obtain it. Duty can not in advance by the sender (duty paid can not be paid until the duty of a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer is to be evaluated. This can not happen until the item is actually in the U.S.), it can only depend on Receiver to be paid. We are aware that to bring this to the sender in an embarrassing situation, but there is nothing you can do CBP. We recommend that you provide a note with the package to the recipient for each CBP duty they are charged to report to. |
