Hi
I recently sent a 3kg laptop to a friend as a gift using the post office international tracked and signed service, with a declared value of £250. When I asked the assistant behind the counter if a CN22/23 was required I was told no as it was being sent via a tracked service.
The tracking status now shows the parcel has been presented to Italian customs for assesment, which I assume is routine. However was the assistant correct regarding a CN22/23 not being required, or will the lack of this potentially mean my friend is charged import fees?

Sending items abroad
When sending goods abroad, customers will need to complete and attach a customs declaration (CN22 or CN23), available from the Post Office® or Royal Mail’s Click&Drop. This does not apply to customers sending items from Northern Ireland to the EU. Letters, postcards and documents are usually exempt.
The recipient may then have to pay customs or VAT charges and a handling fee in the receiving country before they can claim the parcel. These charges will depend on the country they are sending to, the value of the item and whether it is a gift or commercial goods.

Seems from what I can see the PO assistant was mistaken.For use on our International Tracked, International Tracked and Signed & International Signed services, you can print and complete form CN22A

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
