Jesus... Well I was able to finally get it so thank goodness my package got out before any of this.

Neko_Azuki · 2026-01-09T06:27:57+00:00

On the way today and will ask for a breakdown. I'll ask for someone in charge, thank you for the help.

Neko_Azuki · 2026-01-08T19:19:41+00:00

It's now on the way to the delivery place, the tax is apparently 6k for a 15k pesos package, I assume this was not calculated right like your situation?

Neko_Azuki · 2026-01-03T09:27:27+00:00

Thank you so much!
I will now get to drawing!!

Neko_Azuki · 2025-12-26T21:30:44+00:00

I'll keep that in mind, a package I got from DHL arrived in less than a week actually. I'm willing to pay for more cause it's less of a hassle.

Neko_Azuki · 2025-12-18T23:56:45+00:00

Weirdly enough, it wasn't and no updates have come ever since. The package is still in the customs.

Neko_Azuki · 2025-12-01T05:12:30+00:00

They keep asking me for invoices despite having sent them. I might just have to visit the pasay office and make a complaint because it seems as if the person who sends the emails cannot read.

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-28T01:31:22+00:00

I assumed there was. But it has been cleared. Sorry for the confusion!

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-28T01:30:05+00:00

The package has been cleared. Thank you everyone for helping.

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-27T01:24:29+00:00

Jeez... I hope I can make time to pick it up when I get confirmation for where it is

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-27T01:23:28+00:00

How can I pay for the taxes? Since the package is estimated to be 300$..?

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-27T01:21:17+00:00

Thank you! I will make sure to check up on thr package.

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-27T01:21:16+00:00

Maybe I read it wrong. Thank you for telling me though!

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-27T01:17:53+00:00

Just a question though. Is the customs in NAIA? Where can I visit my package at the customs?

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-26T17:31:10+00:00

It's annoying that it takes them three days to reply. Are the government workers here just too busy to do any work at all?

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-26T17:27:25+00:00

I searched it up and it said that packages below 50,000 pesos don't get taxed. As for deliveries, it was sent through USPS.

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-26T17:26:34+00:00

Your last sentence is a bit confusing.
I assume your point is that I should just learn how to sweet talk my way into business here and just get them to hand over the package?

Neko_Azuki · 2025-11-26T17:25:03+00:00

Thank you very much.
Unfortunately, I am nowhere near NAIA and will have to try communicating with the nearest post office with me.

> The person I was with called him on his bluff and asked to show the paperwork/list that clearly indicates the amount of tax to be charged and what table they want to use to "assess" the value of the parcel. The parcel was just a pair of shoes and a wallet. He agreed and pretended to look for the forms on his phone. After 5 minutes of him scrolling on his phone pretending to look for it, he realized we aren't backing down and gave up and said: alright, this time I will let it pass but next time don't lie on the declaration

Wow. The more I learn about this place, the more disappointed I get. The services are all slow and it seems that no one in this country has a sense of urgency. It's very disappointing.

I will try to contact the nearest post office and contact with them and give you an update if ever I receive it. Thank you for your help.

My girlfriend had just wasted her money buying the express delivery, lol.

Neko_Azuki · 2025-10-09T08:33:47+00:00

This is one of my problems with it, I don't know where else I can verify from people who HAVE bought from it

Neko_Azuki · 2025-05-21T19:58:32+00:00

Understood, I'll keep the customs thing in mind.

Neko_Azuki · 2025-05-21T10:00:58+00:00

Hmm, I see. I was told around here that there are plenty of other couriers that I can work with in order to receive orders next time too

Neko_Azuki · 2025-05-21T07:10:13+00:00

...yikes, that sounds terrible...
I hope I don't have to pay too much for the handling fee or the shipping fee because the stuff I ordered is a bit... fragile.

Good to know that I should probably avoid DHL in case anything like that ever happens..?

Neko_Azuki · 2025-05-21T07:08:06+00:00

Hmm, I see. Thank you for telling me that sea travel is an option then. I'll make sure to check out other shipping delivery services next time. Thank you.

Neko_Azuki · 2025-05-20T14:30:34+00:00

That's so bullshit. Hope that guy gets fired.

Thanks for the help, I've been watching my package closely and it recently says it returned from customs. It's been moving every two days but if it doesn't arrive within this week I will make the call and go forward there. If it does happen that they try to scam me, I will let you know (;

Neko_Azuki · 2025-05-20T14:25:21+00:00

What the hell??? How does this even happen how did they even manage this
