UPS Worldwide Expedited®4.8 3439227/12/2023 William B
Always overcharged on GST because commercial invoice does not have the freight rate included.
By William B on 27/12/2023
I try to use Parcel Monkey often. My packages almost always get delivered to Singapore with no issues. The problem is that I always get massively overcharged on the customs GST because the company with the brown trucks and uniforms uses their list shipping (full retail) rate for calculating my GST. This rate is literally 4x what I paid for shipping and adds another 8% to my shipping costs. This happens because Parcel Monkey does not include the shipping rate with the commercial invoice. Singapore customs tells the delivery company to use their list shipping rates when no shipping fee is included with the commercial invoice. I've tried to explain this to Parcel Monkey but they don't seem to have a way to fix this.

Always impressed at how easy it is to send parcels from the US to Japan, I use them every year to send Christmas present to my brother and nephews and it’s always worked perfectly.
