Living somewhere the domestic route does not exist, which makes most of the advice on this board inapplicable to me.

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

Held at customs for 5 days, then released.

Tips: always include a copy of your prescription, declare medication properly on customs forms, keep quantities reasonable (personal use = 3 month supply max), and use a vendor who has experience shipping to your country.

My experience ordering cross-border ordering internationally: I've ordered from an Australian compounder. Customs can be hit or miss.

Shipping time: 5-10 days
Customs clearance: was seized once, reshipped free
Quality: Janoshik tested at 97.6% purity

International ordering adds complexity but can save 60-80% compared to US prices. Research your country's import laws first.

Can confirm. Same sequence, different timescale. Nothing to add that would improve it.

From the other side of the consultation, briefly. Worth answering the question that was asked rather than the one behind it. The narrow version usually has an answer; the broad version usually does not, and answering the broad one is how a thread stops being useful.
