Why We Can't Declare a Lower Value or Mark Orders as 'Gifts'

Unfortunately, we cannot declare a lower value for your order to reduce taxes and duties. Here’s why:

Customs Regulations

Customs authorities in many countries scrutinize packages to ensure that the declared value matches the actual value of the goods. Mis-declaring the value can result in the package being returned to the sender or seized by customs, causing delays and additional costs.

We are legally required to declare the true value of the items shipped. This ensures compliance with international trade laws and customs regulations.

Risk of Return

Declaring a lower value increases the risk of the package being flagged by customs, which can result in the package being returned to us, the shipper. This not only causes inconvenience but also additional shipping charges and delays.

Declaration as Gifts

Similarly, we are unable to declare items as gifts. Customs authorities typically have strict guidelines regarding gift declarations, and falsely declaring commercial goods as gifts can lead to penalties and confiscation of the items.

We understand that customs duties and taxes can add significant costs to your order. However, adhering to these regulations ensures that your package reaches you without unnecessary complications.
