Do I pay customs duty sending from Vietnam to Kiribati?

Where the route crosses a customs border, a declaration accompanies every parcel. Booking from Vietnam generates the required form from the contents and value you enter.

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. Kiribati 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.
