Now you know to always send packages as low value / gift, when sending abroad.

I'd sugguest that you also ask the seller to declare the package as low value / gift, when ever you buy something from abroad, from now on. :-)

The problem is that any package that gets imported into any country gets treated as a sale item. It doesn't matter if you use DHL, UPS, USPS, or other shippers, if you declare the actual value of the contents, and the actual value is over a certain taxable limit (depends of the country the item is beign sent to) then there will be taxes when the receiver in the other country receives the package.
