Do I pay customs duty sending from Ethiopia to Bahrain?
That depends on the customs relationship between Ethiopia and Bahrain. A parcel for MANAMA follows the rules of these two countries. Parcels moving inside one customs territory, such as between two EU member states, need no declaration. They attract no import duty and no import VAT.
Where the route crosses a customs border, a declaration accompanies every parcel. Booking from Ethiopia generates the required form from the contents and value you enter. The recipient in MANAMA pays any import duty and local VAT on arrival. Customs calculates both on the declared value. Declare honestly. Understated values are the most common cause of parcels held at the border.
Gifts below the local de-minimis threshold are often exempt from duty. Bahrain sets that threshold, not the carrier. Restrictions on excise goods such as alcohol and tobacco apply on every route. They apply even inside the EU.
Keep the commercial invoice or receipt available until the parcel arrives in MANAMA. Customs in Bahrain may ask for proof of value.
