International shipping tracking for cross-border ordering orders: my experience with customs in the US when ordering from overseas: Package cleared…

I read this differently from Dr.NateNeph, on substance rather than tone. Import rules are jurisdiction-specific and this board keeps giving US-shaped answers to non-US questions. What is a personal-import allowance in one country is a controlled-import offence in another.

Correct me if the detail matters more than I have assumed.

One concrete data point for the thread. For anyone reading later: the numbers in this thread are worth checking against a primary source before you act on them, including mine. Half the figures circulating in this community trace back to a secondary summary that dropped a qualifier.

There is a second half to this that has not been said yet. Take it one variable at a time. Almost every unanswerable question in these threads is unanswerable because three things changed in the same fortnight, and no amount of subsequent argument can untangle them after the fact.

One thing that is still open after VanRx_Mike’s answer:

Did your prescriber agree with that reading, and if not what was their objection?

Reporting back.

Update — I was wrong in the opening post, specifically about the direction. Correcting it here rather than editing it away.
