If we ship anything to another country we complete a form that is for the Customs agency of that importing country.
It must be absolutely truthful. Not truthful you can be in big trouble. But there are many ways in which to be truthful, and a lot of people cannot differentiate between the various forms of the truth. I rather like the "men's accessory":- absolutely truthful. Just be certain never to lie. It is my understanding that every parcel that enters Australia is x-rayed. This probably applies to other countries as well. |

A special from and to germany is that the weapon-law forbid „two-edged- daggers and push-daggers“ as forbidden weapons.
If you buy something from outside EU, your shipment will go thru customs. A risk that they keep and destroy it. Nobody knows how much they x-ray while shipping to outside germany and where they scan. Best Thomas |

Thanks for sharing, I suppose the dealer has to refund me as it is simply not possible to ship. |

This will be a problem when you receive something from outside EU by German customs. But not a problem by export. And the "two-edged-dagger" story isn't true at all, have had this with a person from cutoms in the past and at last they handled it over in my hands. Read the weapon law from Germany, you can read it online. And all is different also by ethnograhic items. Regards, Detlef |
