Need some advice from people experienced with shipping abroad from Bangladesh 🙏
I need to send a large amount of clothes to my sister in Finland. Probably around 3-4 big bags worth. The volume is a lot, but the weight itself shouldn’t be too crazy.
I live in Dhanmondi and planning to use local postal/courier services since DHL would probably be way too expensive. This will be my first time sending something internationally, so I’d really appreciate advice on:
Where exactly do I need to go. (Gulistan post office or Zigatola?)
Things I should look out for
Customs/tax issues
Approximate cost and delivery time
Any place/service that can professionally pack/vacuum pack everything for me (don’t mind paying extra 500-1000 taka for proper packing)
Would appreciate any tips before I do this. Thanks!
