With CourierAPP it works like every shipment of ours — door-to-door with DHL Express, a final price with VAT in 30 seconds, pickup from your place, and the customs declaration completed in a single step inside the app.

US customs: what you need to know
Every parcel to the USA needs a content and value declaration. In the app you complete it in one step: describe items specifically (“2 books, 1 sweater” — never just “gifts”) and declare a realistic value. We prepare the documents and clearance happens on arrival; any import duties are billed to the recipient, as with every international shipment. For documents only (contracts, certificates, university or visa paperwork) there is the envelope service from €47.90 — no goods clearance, same Express speed.
What people send to the USA
The Greek-American community is the largest in the world — and the parcels to Astoria, Chicago and Boston never stop: family boxes, products “you just can’t find there”, study and green-card documents, samples for US distributors. Mind the restrictions: food only packaged/sealed, nothing fresh — and never loose lithium batteries.
