UPS has notified me i need to show at 120 Years Building and register as an import agent or get an import license just to get a 2 Ib package of 40 personal single use eye drops, 2 boxes of just for men, and 2 UV BLOCKER sets of armsleeves my nephew sent me from my apartment in LA. Please, somebody who’s been though this, send the quickest most stress free method of navigating this. BESIDES Thai Customs, UPS is also trying to get paid extra in this process. I had no idea having a small box of personal provisions was gonna come to this. And if i choose to just not bother with this and walk away from less than $70 us worth of stuff, UPS’ charge is nearly $300 to “destroy” the package. You talk about a Catch-22!!! What does an Import License even cost, never mind there’s MORE steps to follow just to get this small quantity of my own personal hygiene products in hand.

Hello! This might be a long-shot but would love someone's input if they knew the answer or knew someone who might know the answer!

I am opening a coffee shop and I would like a specific drink concentrate from America. I have friends coming to visit who are willing to pack it into their extra suitcase and save me $300 on shipping. However, they (or I) need to declare the goods in order to pay the import tax so that I can use it as a legitimate item and expense for my cafe. Does anyone know how to declare goods from America? And if so, does it need to be done by me or by the person who brings the items in their suitcase at the airport? If not at the airport, then where else could I declare them?

Thank you in advance for anyone who is able to help!
