The value of the goods is used in the customs documents Fraktjakt creates and even if the freight does not have customs documents, it can still be advantageous to state the value because it is also the basis for your insurance alternatives.
Fraktjakt automatically creates a Proforma Invoice for shipments that need customs documents if it is a gift or sample sent. For commercial international shipping, a Commercial Invoice is created instead.
A gift is something that is sent between two private individuals, which is for private use and which is sent on occasion and without any payment by the recipient. Gifts may also not be worth more than SEK 1,600. Otherwise, the customs or the carrier acting as customs clearance may invoice an import VAT.
