Shipping into the Palestinian Territory is regulated through customs authorities responsible for imports entering Palestinian areas, including procedures connected to border crossings and trade agreements. Proper declaration and correct documentation help prevent delays, inspections, additional charges, or customs issues.
Because many shipments may pass through regional entry points, customs clearance depends on the shipment type, declared value, product category, and current border procedures.
All packages except Documents are generally dutiable. However, whether or not a shipment will attract customs duties, taxes, or import charges depends on:
What is being shipped
The declared value
Quantity
Shipment purpose
Shipment route selected
The discretion of customs officials
Some shipments may attract customs charges while others may not.
If you ship through certain Cargo routes on Routely, customs duties may already be covered or estimated as part of the shipping cost, where available.
