Sample prices as of August 7, 2026. Each service may apply a different minimum weight or volumetric weight, so the actual price depends on the parcel's post-packing weight,
box dimensions, postal code, product type and membership tier.
Since 29 August 2025, the U.S. has suspended de minimis treatment for parcels valued up to US$800 from all countries, so non-ALL-IN services may charge additional duties, taxes and fees based on product type, country of origin and declared value. See U.S. Customs and Border Protection for details.
The ePacket US All-Inclusive service includes import taxes and duties, per the applicable conditions, in the price shown.
The sender sees the total before booking and reduces the chance the recipient has to pay extra when the parcel reaches America.
Our team helps review the product type, value and documents before confirming the service.
Key conditions to compare before choosing a service
- The transit times shown are estimates and may increase due to customs inspection, holidays or the destination area.
- Prices are based on actual weight versus volumetric weight, using the greater of the two, plus each service's minimum weight.
- Each service supports different goods, such as processed food, batteries, liquids or controlled items.
- Insurance may not cover under-declared value, fragile or perishable goods, and unsuitable packaging.
- Many services offer 24-hour tracking, insurance, doorstep delivery and location tracking on a map — compare the features before choosing.
What to know about shipping parcels to the USA
ParcelRadar helps you compare shipping costs and tax conditions, and reviews your documents before shipping.
So you can choose between a standard or ALL-IN service without having to handle customs and paperwork on your own.
Don't want to worry about tax? Choose ALL-IN
The U.S. has suspended the former de minimis treatment for parcels valued up to US$800.
Standard services may therefore incur duties, taxes and fees charged later, while ALL-IN includes import costs up front per the applicable conditions.
Our team helps review the product type, country of origin and declared value before you choose a service.
Food can be shipped, but choose the right service
Many types of food can be shipped, but the FDA may require Prior Notice, manufacturer information, English labels and product-specific requirements.
When you ship with ParcelRadar, we help review the information and issue the FDA Prior Notice document for free, at no charge.
We also coordinate the necessary documents to reduce the chance your parcel is held or returned.
