Do I pay customs duty sending from Ecuador to Sri Lanka?
That depends on the customs relationship between Ecuador and Sri Lanka. 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 corridor crosses a customs border, a declaration accompanies every parcel. Booking from Ecuador generates the required form from the contents and value you enter. The recipient in Sri Lanka 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. Sri Lanka sets that threshold, not the carrier. Restrictions on excise goods such as alcohol and tobacco apply on every corridor. They apply even inside the EU.
Keep the commercial invoice or receipt available until the parcel arrives in Sri Lanka. Customs may ask for proof of value on shipments from Ecuador.What cannot be sent from Ecuador to Sri Lanka?

We refuse these at collection in Ecuador. They are not insurable.Some destinations restrict more than the universal list. Typical additions into Sri Lanka include alcohol and tobacco above personal allowances, prescription medicines without documentation, plant material and seeds, and cosmetics in commercial quantities. Branded goods can need proof of origin. Check the rules for Sri Lanka before booking when your item could fall in one of these categories.
