I paid Royal Mail £14 postage but AN Post returned the parcel for not having the correct customs declaration.
Previously, An Post dealt with about 10m parcels a year from non-EU countries, but the 16m received annually from Great Britain now flow in this stream through Irish Customs.
I recently sent a parcel – of three secondhand books – by Royal Mail to Ireland, a fortnight before a birthday, paying £14 postage.
Three weeks later it was returned to me having failed An Post’s requirement for the correct CN22 customs declaration, but without further explanation.
Are Brexit rules making it hard to post kids’ books to Ireland?
