How accurate should you write item's price and weights for customs when you ship with FedEx?

score:1

Accepted answer

On a customs declaration, it is generally permitted to aggregate categories of items. You can write "Used clothing (personal effects) - 5lb" or something to that effect instead of listing each glove, hat, etc... individually.

New Zealand has rules for duty-free importation of household goods and personal effects, and you'd want to read that and mark the package accordingly, including the required declaration and documents, if you qualify.

It's up to you to determine the valuation of your goods. Guides to what used items generally sell for at garage sales, charity shops, online auctions, etc... may be useful here if you're unsure.

Did you by any chance piss the people off at the fedex office by being unfriendly or demanding? Because .... ... there is really no other explanation. Weight for individual items I have never been asked, only total weight and well, thats why they have scales at thge fedex office. Descriptions and prices also are usually approximate, in particular for obvisouly unpacked and used private items.
