RELATED TO THE SUBJECT
Below, we are sharing UPS’s official statement on this matter.
Dear Business Partner,
In accordance with the applicable regulations and security requirements for international shipping, it is of the utmost importance that shipments do not contain any prohibited or restricted items.
In accordance with the UPS Terms and Conditions of Carriage, if a package is found to contain prohibited items, the shipper/customer agrees, declares, and undertakes to pay the prohibited shipment surcharge specified for the relevant shipment, in addition to the applicable shipping charges.
Accordingly, this surcharge will be applied at a rate of 300 USD per package, and the relevant amount will be billed separately from other shipping charges and any additional expenses that may arise. UPS reserves the right to revise this surcharge in accordance with its current surcharge schedule.
The sender is responsible for the contents of the shipment and the accuracy of the declaration. Please note that by shipping the package, you are deemed to have accepted the UPS Terms and Conditions of Carriage.
You can access the current list of prohibited items via the List of Prohibited Items.
