the easiest thing for you to do is to contact them (ie, via their website or call up) and request for information via whichever sales/account manager to you.

but, if you not intending to be a regular/volume customer, then not much difference. only singpost published their rates online clearly if not wrong.

I only managed to get DHL to reply me via few courriers I tried ;-p overall the servic is good ;-)

Question Re: Shipment

Can anyone explain how to import stuff to Singapore?
If the overseas supplier says that they will cover the shipping, do you still need to engage an agent to receive your goods from the ports and deliver to your place? Will companies like DHL, Fedex provide such services?
I thought other than GST, will still need to pay $300 to $400 for the agent's services

hi all.

my supplier used to send my goods fr USA to Singapore using UPS..so far no prob at all..and the best part is as most of my packages are over the SGD400 value,i have not been charged the GST..well,i guess they have their own customs officers to check or something like that lah..hehe

and what i like about UPS is that i'm able to track down about my pckg in details..so i know exactly where they are located at that moment of time..hope this helps
