Hi all.
So I'm coming after the new year to Taiwan. I want to send my stuff on a boat from Korea and 'meet it' in Taiwan.
Has anyone done that?
How are customs? Fast or slow. In South Africa they require bribery, Is it the same in Taiwan? |

I have not heard of teachers having to bribe customs officials, it is not uncommon in the business sector. Pilfering by customs and mail staff is quite common.
It may take a moth or two if you send it surface mail and be sure to take out insurance. A freight forwarded may be a better bet.
Good luck,
A. |
