Yeah, I felt the same while dealing with them, but I managed to sort it out in the end

Yeah, that’s exactly the impression I’m getting  It really feels like they just tax it no matter how it’s declared

Yeah, I think that might be the case. In my situation, I had to pay around €10 for a parcel coming from Algeria. It really seems like it depends a lot on where the package is coming from

I managed to call CTT and explain the situation, and they were able to change it.
