I used to buy enclosure + printing and drilling for about 20$ with shipping. This was great for prototyping. Now it is like 17$ for goods and 12$ shipping this all times 1.21 and 20€ on top of that. Too much, unfortunately.
I wish it would happen to me, too.With Thailand Post I get my packages in France without paying anything. Small packages though, maybe about $40-50 of parts.
Wow this is an insane amount of hassle. Incidentally I am a professional translator but there's no way I'm doing all that ;(Andre - I'm afraid that every Tayda order shipped with DHL goes through customs. That's not all -
Tayda does not ship any invoices, lists of items, etc. You have to provide DHL with:
- invoice/print screen from the order with all the items, prices, shipping costs, etc
- confirmation of your payment to Tayda (paypal/creditcard/etc..)
- translation of the invoice (ENG to PL)- every item. What is it made of, what is it for, etc.
- scan of the signed authorization (you have to authorize DHL to act in your behalf with all the necessary actions/paperwork, etc, custom fees)
Authorization is not free of charge.. it costs around 20-25$, but you can give the authorization for unlimited time (and pay only once for it)
My last order had the invoice scanned and sent to DHL by Tayda so all I had to do is to approve it on the DHL customs web page I was sent. I had to describe each item of the invoice on the same page. If the information from the sender doesn't match or is missing you can send your invoice or confirmation of your payment. DHL then calculates VAT plus adds 20€ processing fee. Then you are sent the link where you can pay these fees by card. It is quite simple in the end but expensive for small orders. Hope this might help someone.Andre - I'm afraid that every Tayda order shipped with DHL goes through customs. That's not all -

Yeah in my experience when they ship something they forgot , they will go DHL so custom charges :/I placed my order on Tayda.
About 76 $ of materials, about 22 $ of Thailand post delivery. (Weight 824g).
I expected about 22% of VAT on 98 $, around 22 $ but the fee I paid to the delivery guy was almost double.
OK.
Now, Tayda, to repair a mistake, can send me 4 red LED 3mm and 8 small nuts, I still have to confirm that. In case, do I expect fee again for a small bag?
I don't want to a refund or a credit (Tayda offered me both) because probably I'll make another order next years. Maybe.
No they don't. I'm in Australia, I've received at least ten shipments from Tayda via DHL, and there has never been any fee other than the $10-ish shipping fee itself.The DHL option always have customs charges (around 20$) outside the usa.
Nice !! it really must depend on where you are. To Canada I never had a DHL order without custom charges but never using regular post for smaller orders .No they don't.

I'm guessing that this wasn't DDP? I haven't had orders that high yet, but ~€150 ended up being ~€35 postage incl. customs. I noticed that there was a limit for DDP though, around this mark.I recently put in an Tayda order for about 250€ + shipping to Austria via DHL. DHL then took another 110€ for customs etc. That hurt quite a lot. Will be my last Tayda order for the foreseeable future
