is included (that's why express shipping is more costly; 'more' service, but also more control and options to interfere, when things go wrong).<o:p></o:p></p>

6). I have <i>never</i> filled this box out before, but the new de minimis order means we are now responsible for the following process below (essentially being our own customs broker). I spoke with an agent out of the LA office who has made it clear that
box 6 is now absolutely required for our 3-177 eDec's. And, all packages must be cleared <i>before</i> import now with that customs entry number. Simply having the 3-177 on the box does not suffice. I'm sure this will vary depending on the carrier and the
customs broker they use, please share what you learn.<o:p></o:p></p>
