    Does she have to pay tax on it before she collects it? I had to collect a parcel of tea bags from there yonks ago. When I read I'd have to pay tax before collecting it I didn't bother going. I had also heard it was a lengthy progress with large queues. Probably changed since then though.

    I have no idea since I never order from abroad, except documents which are sent over by FedEx


    It seems the booking system is still in place: https://www.argentina.gob.ar/sites/default/…rnos_retiro.pdf

    I had received the instructions with the telegram from Correo Argentino. There was a small fee to pay for the telegram. I don't recall how I paid that, whether before my appointment or at Aduana directly. I recall there was a counter with manned booths, and I believe they were of Correo Argentino. The actual Aduana is behind steel doors and there was a private guard (like from Prosegur et similar) who was keeping an eye on who was going it. We were called by last name and there were plenty of seats to wait.

    Edited once, last by serafina: Merged a post created by serafina into this post. (April 12, 2025 at 10:02 AM).
