I have an important package that was sent on Oct 20th and I have to have it by the 15th of November. It was sent from the U.S. Yeah I know I was stupid to use Kuwait's postal service. However I decided to take a gamble. I have received all mail that has been sent to me. It is just a long process to get it. Does anyone know a number I can call or a place I can go to try to obtain it quicker? Thank you for your assistance.

ya, you were stupid
there are ways to work with the system but to send important package without being informed is a recipe for trpouble
get on your company's mandoob or hr dept DAILY
next time get your own PO Box or use ARAMEX

any thing bigger than a padded envelope will be held at the central po in shuaikh on 55
your hr dept will receive a card for you to go and be there in person whne it's openned - vitamins , pills etc will be confiscated and tested
you will need the card first
