Hi,

I currently am studying abroad in barcelona and unfortunately my computer charger.

my lovely best friend at home is sending me the charger via usps express (sending from the states), which is estimated to arrive in 3-5 days.

what should he fill out on the customs form so i could avoid a big fee? should he check gift? or goods? etc.

the contents are worth about 30 dollars. does anybody have a guess how much i’ll be paying to retrieve the package?

(also hoping it doesn’t get lost or stolen)

also, when hes filling out the form, does he have to write it in spanish?

thank you jurdy

hes probably going to put the value of the package at 30 USD. Do you have an idea on how much i’ll be paying for the customs fee? and spanish post is usually safe right?
