| Introduction | (Insert Future Address Here) Never write the real contents of a package. Write general items- Don't give them any reason to want anything that is inside. Never write the real value of items on the customs form. Always put $10 or less otherwise, we have to pay taxes on packages. If they think there are valuable items in a package, they will open the package and then charge us more money or they may take the contents for themselves. Write "Dieu Te Regarde" on the package in large letters. This translates as, "God is watching you". It also helps to write everything (even addresses) in big RED letters because that is generally associated with government or top secret things that they don't want to mess with. You will want to include an itemized list of the contents in the package so if there is something missing, we will know it. If they don't know English, then they won't know what the note says, and even if they do, they will know that someone paid attention to what was sent so if everything doesn't make it, there is more of a chance of someone following up. Lastly, use the US Postal Service- not a FedEx or UPS." |
