quite possibly. on the export they should complete a small form detailing what it is for.
in theory customs could stop it, and apply duty on it.Remember the time he ate my goldfish? And you lied and said I never had goldfish. Then why did I have the bowl Bart? Why did I have the bowl?0 -
so it might/might not depending on if customs decide to stop it? should i contact the seller and ask them to mark the package with something so that customs dont stop it? if they do stop it - how much will the charge be? (i guess there's some charging structure such as % of weight or something). Thanks.0
