International Postage

I've mailed a few packages since I've been here. There is a 24 hour post office on my way home from work and only about 1.5 km from my home. I've learned that the customs declaration that you fill out will make a big difference in the cost. The orange form, on the right, seams to cost about 1/3 less than the green form. The shipping time for the orange form is also surprisingly quick, in my experience, about 2-5 days.
