My opinion for my business. All items send outside of USA are require to add
insurance because you don't know what other country's custom inspector do with
this box. Sometime, they can destroy box if not meet their required. (Most
country would not do it, but just be safety)
Mail for outside of USA never get cheapest as domestic price. I would use
USPS rather than UPS and Fedex. Fedex and UPS is too higher price. Reason
that I choice USPS because it government service and it will more easy and
less headache when delivery package between both country's government service.
If you send items from personal to personal then encourage to marked on custom
form as gift instead merchandise to keep avoid tax and fee at other country.
My business have to marked as Merchandise because of law and consumer at other
country has to pay custom fee.
You should try play around at Fedex, UPS, and USPS website to see compare
price rate.
