Shipping to a jammer in Brazil from USA, any shipping carriers we know are reliable to there?
Just want to make sure if there is someone to aviod I do not use them.

also will there be duties/fees on his side?
thanks ahead,
Mike

    For stuff > U$$50.00 there is a fee of 60% of the value (sad but true).

    But I think that this works only for products sent from companies. For personal correspondence I never was taxed even when the value exceeded this threshold.

    I know that DHL is widely recommended here.

    60%.....unreal, looks like declared value is going to be 50!

    Aw man. Shipping things to Brazil is sure hard, I know how it is. Tried to buy some thing internationally and ended up not doing it because of those issues. Good luck!
