Bermuda companies do not require a VAT Tin License. In order for US, UK or EU businesses to receive exemptions, or be acknowledged as a business and receive the appropriate benefits, they must upload their VAT Tin number and a copy of their current business license from their company’s domicile country. Here is the guideline on how to complete the process.

• Log into your account (using your username and password).
• To the right of your account, select “My Account Settings”.
• Once the account settings page is opened, select the fifth feature that says “Account Documents”.
• Select “Add New Document”, click on the “browse” button and search for the file you would like to upload (note: the website only accepts PNG, JPG, JPEG, TIF, TIFF, and PDF)
• Select the bubble on the side of which type of document it is that is being uploaded (Photo Identification, Notarized 1583, or Other). Note: Once uploaded, the document can be deleted in the first 15 minutes
• For VAT Certificate and Business License uploads, Select the bubble for “other”. Then type in a description for the file, use your company’s name and describe the file type; I.e. “ABC Ltd. business license” or “ABC Ltd. VAT certificate”.
• Once completed select the “Upload Document” button and your document will be uploaded and saved to your account
• On the same page would have the name of the document, the date it has been added and the document itself

If you receive a package that does not include a merchant invoice, or the invoice did not show the value of the merchandise, you will need to enter the value into your account. This information is required by Bermuda Customs.

You can find the value of your purchases on the invoice or order confirmation you received from the merchant. To enter your merchandise values:

1. Sign in to your MyBermudaPost account
2. In My Suite, go to the Action Required tab
3. Click Provide Item Values for the packages indicated
4. Enter the price you paid for the items listed
5. Click Submit Item Values
6. If the item values are accepted, your package will move to Ready to Send
7. If the item values are not accepted, you will be asked to upload the merchant invoice.

Please note, the package will not be Ready to Send until you have entered the correct purchase value.

A merchant invoice (MI), or payment receipt, is a document that shows the price you paid for the merchandise you have purchased. The document may also contain other information, including the name and address of the sellers.

Many merchants automatically include a merchant invoice with your package, and some may email you an electronic merchant invoice.

Please keep a record of your merchant invoices so you can provide them to MyBermudaPost or your customs office if required for export or import purposes.

Many merchants automatically include an invoice with your merchandise. In some cases, it may be necessary to request that the merchant includes a paper invoice. If a merchant emails you an invoice or payment receipt, you may need to ask the merchant to also include a merchant invoice with your merchandise.

If you purchase from an eBay seller or private individual, it may be necessary to email the seller and request a merchant invoice showing the seller’s name, address and the price you paid for your purchases.

Special note about gift items:

If you indicate your item is a gift/sample, the seller may include a merchant invoice that does not show the price for your merchandise. If your package arrives with a gift/sample receipt rather than a complete merchant invoice, you will be asked to provide additional information before MyBermudaPost can export your purchases. Please ask the merchant for a merchant invoice with a declared value noting the gift/sample to help make the Bermuda Customs declaration quicker and simpler for any potential exemptions

To comply with US export regulations, MyBermudaPost must hhave the actual purchase prices of items, gifts and commercial samples we export. In many cases, we must also have the name and address of the seller.

When MyBermudaPost recieves a package with a merchant invoice that includes prices, we will enter the values and seller’s name and address for you. In most cases we will not need any additional information from you, so the merchant invoice can help you receive your purchases more quickly.

If your package arrives without a merchant invoice, or if the invoice does not show the price you paid for merchandise, we cannot export your packages until we receive this information. Any packages requiring values or invoices can be found in the Action Required tab in My Suite.

If you are receiving a warranty, replacement or backlog item that you have previously paid Bermuda Custom’s duty, please contact Bermuda Customs for the required release documentation so MyBermudaPost can ship your item with the proper authorization documents from Bermuda Customs

Yes. All goods imported into Bermuda requires a merchant invoice for Customs purposes. If your item or organization has an End-Use or Temporary Importation Relief from the Collector of Customs you must supply the valid documentation with the merchant invoice before your items are shipped to Bermuda.

Yes.If your merchant invoice is in a different currency, we will convert the prices into US or Bermuda dollars using the current exchange rate for duty purposes.

US Census Bureau regulations require MyBermudaPost to properly value your goods. We create the Proforma Invoice for customs by entering the information provided on the merchant invoice/receipt that is used for customs clearance. The Proforma Invoice lists the value, quantity and description of the items.

If your package does not include a merchant invoice, or if it does not show the value of the merchandise, we will need you to enter the values before we can ship your package.

To upload your invoice, please copy and paste invoice or indication of value received from vendor onto a Word document and save as a PDF or JPG document, no larger than 2MB large.

There are quite a few reasons why your invoices are being rejected including:

• Items received do not match the items on the invoice
• Quantities of items received do not match invoice
• Invoice does not include all the items in the package
• Unable to identify which items belong to the package

To alleviate this problem, we recommend to make sure the invoice you upload is correct and contains all items within the package. If there are numerous items, please highlight using Adobe Reader or other editing applications on your mobile phone or PC. This will help to further speed up processing time, so your items can be ready to ship.

Published MyBermudaPost shipping rates are for door-to-door delivery. These rates do not include any additional import fees or duty for shipments coming into Bermuda.

Once the Duty payment is received MyBermudaPost will clear your package with Bermuda Customs a deliver to the address you have indicated.

Dimensional weight is used when packages are large in volume but low in weight, and it is considered only when it exceeds 60 lbs. You should calculate the dimensional weight for every shipment to ensure it is within this weight limit. Example: A package containing a baby stroller is 39″ in height, 18″ in width, and 15″ in length, with an actual weight of 15 lbs. When calculated (length x width x height / 166), the dimensional weight (64 lbs.) is greater than the actual weight (15 lbs.); hence, the dimensional weight will be the chargeable weight, and another means of transport will have to be used.

Other examples include comforter sets, pillows, and plastic bumpers, which are usually packaged larger to contain their contents. Most of the time, the value of these items is well below the shipping cost, so we recommend shipping by boat instead of by air.

Weight and Size Limits The maximum weight of any one single package, including its dimensional weight calculation, must be less than 60 lbs. Additionally, the maximum length of any one side is 60 inches, and the maximum girth is 176 inches.

To calculate the girth of a package, follow these guidelines:

1. Measure the three parcel dimensions in centimeters. Example: 30 inches (Length) x 20 inches (Width) x 10 inches (Height).
2. Add the measurements of the two smallest dimensions together. Multiply the result by two. This is the girth of your package. Example: 20 inches (Width) + 10 inches (Height) = 30 inches. 30 inches x 2 = 60 inches (Girth).
3. Now simply take the longest dimension and add this to the package girth. The result is the combined length and girth of your parcel. Example: 30 inches (Length) + 60 inches (Girth) = 90 inches (Combined Length and Girth)

You will be charged upon creation of the ship request.

MyBermudaPost supports a cashless platform for your convenience, where payment transactions are completed via the website upon creation of a ship request. We accept Visa and MasterCard credit and debit cards.

MyBermudaPost charges all shipping charges online on your account.

Please Note: You may not file a claim for damage or loss if you do not select shipment insurance.

Many stores pack your items in boxes that are too large or not properly prepared for global shipping. MyBermudaPost takes extra time to ensure all your merchandise is properly packaged for international shipping. Our FREE repackaging service will save you money in shipping costs and also helps ensure your purchases are not damaged during transport.

MyBermudaPost must review the contents of each package to determine if an Electronic Export Information (EEI) is required. If MyBermudaPost determines that an EEI is required for merchandise in your package, we must file an EEI and receive a confirmation number from the U.S. Government before we can export your package.

The U.S. Government primarily uses EEI reports to compile international trade statistics. An EEI includes information about the merchandise in your package, the U.S. seller, the buyer and other trade-related information. To complete an EEI filing with the U.S. Government, we must receive information about your merchandise, including:

• Merchant Invoice
• U.S. tax ID or Employer Identification Number (EIN) of the seller

A tax ID or EIN is still required if the seller is an individual (e.g., eBay seller). When purchasing high-value merchandise, please verify the seller is willing to provide this information.

If merchandise in your package requires an EEI, we will gather the necessary information and complete the EEI process for a fee of USD $50. We will add this fee to the final costs for your package.

EEI is outlined in the Foreign Trade Regulations (FTR), which are regulated by the US Census Bureau and enforced by the US Customs and Border Protection. Learn more about EEI and the FTR at http://www.census.gov/trade.

If you are a merchant or a seller and would like more information about EEI requirements, please contact us. You can also contact the US Census Bureau’s Foreign Trade Division at (800) 549-0595, option 3.

There are several reasons why you may be unable to submit a ship request:

Due to the potential fire danger, lithium ion and lithium metal batteries are heavily regulated for air transport. The regulations are extremely complex and can vary by country, and even by courier. The size of the battery, how it is packaged, and if it is pre-installed in an electronic device also play a role in the regulations and restrictions.

Our team of trained specialists can arrange for export of most lithium batteries and electronic devices containing these batteries. For assistance determining if MyBermudaPost can export lithium batteries and electronic devices containing these batteries to The Bermuda, please contact us.

No. MyBermudaPost cannot export any motorized vehicle that requires a license to operate. Common examples include cars, trucks and motorcycles.

MyBermudaPost can export most over-the-counter medications, providing they arrive in original packaging and may be distributed within the United States.

We also suggest that you contact your local customs office to inquire if food can be imported to The Bermuda, as it is often restricted.

All food packaging must include the following:

MyBermudaPost cannot export counterfeit, bootleg or knockoff items. If you receive an item that does not appear to be authentic, we will notify you by email and refer the item to our trade compliance team to verify its authenticity.

If the item is counterfeit and came from a merchant in the US and the merchant provided a return label, we can help you return the item. If the merchant did not provide a return label, or if the merchant will not accept a return, we must discard the item.

More information on CITES and the wildlife it protects can be found here: http://www.cites.org/

• Boots and winter coats made of fur or with fur trim hoods
• Handbags, jackets, wallets, shoes, and suitcases made of animal leather
• Hats or clothing that have feathers
• Musical instruments, watches and jewelry that contain mother of pearl

Some of these items can be exported with no additional paperwork, while others require a declaration for import and export that must be filed with USFWS. We always recommend that you contact us before purchasing an item that may be subject to additional licensing requirements.

Importing USFWS items into the US

MyBermudaPost strongly recommends that you do not purchase products from other countries if they contain animal fur or other wildlife material. Products ordered from other countries require a completed import declaration, and any fees to complete the form will be charged to your MyBermudaPost account. An import declaration is required even if MyBermudaPost does not ship the product on your behalf.

In some cases, your shipment may be seized by customs if a proper import declaration is not provided by the shipper. If MyBermudaPost is not able to export a product that originated outside the US for you, due to USFWS regulations, it would not be returnable.

Be careful when ordering cosmetics from outside the USA. Many contain caviar or snail extracts that are restricted for trade. When purchasing from sites such as eBay or Amazon, pay close attention to the “Ships From” information. These sites provide listing services for third party sellers and often merchandise ships from outside the USA. MyBermudaPost will not be able to return these products to the seller.

Importing items containing animal products into The Bermuda

MyBermudaPost encourages you to confirm The Bermuda's import requirements for animal products. These regulations change frequently, and you are responsible for providing any import documents or permits to your customs office or the carrier when items arrive in The Bermuda.

Dangerous goods/hazardous materials are items that require special handling, additional packaging and labeling to be transported internationally.

These items may or may not be allowed to ship to The Bermuda. Shipping dangerous goods is country-specific.

Items considered to be dangerous goods include: flammable items or items under pressure (e.g., hairspray, spray paint, lighters, nail polish and perfume)

Please view our Prohibited & Restricted Items Guide for more information, or contact us for specific information regarding The Bermuda and the items you wish to ship.

Yes. We are allowed to export perfume, with a special handling fee of $10.50.

Yes. Mother-of-pearl is protected by the Endangered Species Act and governed by the US Fish and Wildlife Service and US Department of Interior. MyBermudaPost is licensed to export mother-of-pearl at an additional fee of $180 per shipment. We cannot export items containing mother-of-pearl without payment of this fee.

Mother-of-pearl is commonly found on watches, keys of musical instruments and as decoration on guitars, kitchenware and other home decor. If you have any questions, please contact us before placing an order with a merchant.

No. Incorrectly addressed packages or those missing vital information require manual research, and may delay the availability of that package for shipment.

Incoming Packages

There is no fee for packages that arrive at our distribution center with an incomplete address. You can avoid delays by making sure the merchant properly addresses your order. Read more on how to correctly enter your USA address here.

Outgoing Packages

We will charge a $15 fee to your MyBermudaPost account if you update your address after the shipment has left our facility.

Common reasons for address correction include:

1. You requested shipment to a P.O. Box. Most express couriers will not ship to a P.O. Box.
2. Your address is incomplete or missing vital information. You can verify and update your shipping address by signing in to your account and clicking My Account Settings, then Address Book.

Yes. MyBermudaPost opens every package when it arrives at our facility. Our trained login agents carefully review your purchases to ensure they were not broken during shipping and are legal for export from the USA.

If the merchant included an invoice, we will compare the contents of the package to the purchases shown on the invoice to ensure you received the correct number of items. If the invoice shows the price you paid, we will also enter these values for you.

If you receive an item that is not in the manufacturer's original packaging, or is not from a trusted merchant, we will open the product packaging to inspect the item. This allows MyBermudaPost to reduce fraud, and saves you shipping costs by verifying the correct product is in the package and is legal for export from the USA.

All packages entering Bermuda are subject to Bermuda Customs inspection.

Packages stored past the free storage period will incur storage fees of $1 per package per day.

After 60 days, all storage packages are automatically discarded.

Most shipments leave our consolidation facility within one business day after we receive your ship request. MyBermudaPost does not ship packages out on Saturdays and Sundays or certain USA or Bermuda holidays.

In some cases, high-value merchandise and shipments may require additional paperwork to comply with US government regulations. This may result in additional shipment processing time.

Shipments containing certain animal products, including feathers, animal skin and mother-of-pearl may require additional processing time to ensure compliance with US Fish and Wildlife regulations.

Shipments containing items on the Prohibited & Restricted Items Guide require additional review by our compliance team. This adds processing time to these shipments.

Once a package leaves our warehouse, average transit time to your door is two to four days.

To ensure quality and compliance with US export regulations, we must open and review all wrapped items. When possible, we make every effort to return wrapped items to their original condition.

Merchants often ship parts of the same order from different warehouses, or at different times. This means you may receive two or more packages, even though you only placed one order.

If your merchandise shipping schedule is set to Automatic, we will automatically ship your packages as they arrive at our facility. If a merchant ships parts of your order separately, you will pay shipping for each package. To save on shipping costs, set your shipping schedule to Hold, and request a shipment when all your merchandise has arrived.

To change your Merchandise Shipping schedule, sign in to your account, click My Account Settings, then Shipping Preferences, and select Hold from the Merchandise Shipping Schedule drop-down menu.

• Once received in Bermuda, then processed, you will receive an email to pay Customs duty, with all fees and breakdown shown.
