  • Answer:

    Nah, I wouldn't worry about it. Unless it's imported electronics equipment like a digital camera or computer, you should be fine. I've had DVDs, CD's, and jewelry went over to me from my parents in the USA without any problems. Just make sure you label the customs label carefully - you don't have to get overly specific. Just don't mention the word electronics or anything related to software - something like "used movies/games" or some other phrase that won't draw attention of customs will suffice. You don't want them getting the wrong idea that you're a wholesaler sending US goods for profit. The word "used" on the customs form really works well even if it's not necessarily true. Hope this helps.

You might be thinking of import fees or something like that. They do charge for wholesale items, cars, etc. For the stuff you are sending there will be no issue as long as you are not sending five or six copies of the same game or same DVD. If customs opens the box and sees that they might ask some questions. If you are sending to an APO if will be even easier since SOFA covers all of that. Also, the postage rate is the same as if you were sending to the US.

I don't think you'll get charged.Maybe for big things but not small things like those.There might be a shipping fee though to the people you sent it to.It probably won't cost too much.My grandma always sends clothes and equipment from Korea to us in Canada and we had to pay a little bit about $5-20 because of the shipping fee.

Hi there, i'm living in S Korea and my mum has sent two packages now and I have never been charged. Don't know why you would be to be honest and its a pretty straightforward package you're sending so I'd say no!
