It is very important that you comply with the provisions of the Duty-Free De Minimis suspension and the U.S. Food Import Policy, to help with avoiding mistakes when completing and submitting customs documentation. In most cases, these shipments require special permits and registration with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
In our Help Center, we provide guidance on how to correctly complete a Customs Invoice and how to pack food items.
Important
Not all carriers accept shipments of food products. Therefore, during the purchase process, check the service Details section of the carrier you are interested in to confirm whether or not they allow food shipments.
Tips
- Before purchase your shipment, request further information from the United States embassy or consulate, as this country is quite restrictive when it comes to imports.
- Visit the official U.S. Customs website for more details.
- Make sure your shipment does not contain any items listed in Packlink PRO prohibited and restricted articles list to avoid issues or sanctions during transport.
