Sending an international parcel

[BlondieD]

I want to send a parcel abroad to Australia. Its a gift for family. I usually post it but the price ls are gone up. I have to use a courier instead. I filled out the details online and I am hoping I did it correctly. I am using UPS.
I don't know if this is right. At the end of the transaction they gave me document to print which is an invoice and this doesn't look right to me. It's because the invoice makes it look like a formal commercial item but there's no commercial value on the parcel. Its a gift.

Does any of that make sense? I am hoping I filled in correctly and I don't want to get my family abroad in trouble with customs or anything like that.

You still have to say how much it cost on an international parcel. They may be taxed depending on the value of the gift plus postage if it's over the limit.

I know that bit. I have the items declared and the cost written down.

It doesn't seem right to me how the form says commercial invoice when it isn't a commercial transaction. Its a gift.
