The parcel which we sent to Molepolole (57 km north of Gabrone, along the main road) on 8 January 2021 is still on it's way somewehere in Botswana. The delivery time is 7 - 25 working days and should have been delivered 12 February at the latest. The parcel which has been sent to Gantsi on 11 January 2021 arrived on 11 March. In spite of it being a present, "customs and handling charges" of Pula 1.824,15 have been charged. The value of the parcel was € 300 and import duty 21% was about Pula 824 on 11 March. What I did not realize was that I marked "geschenk" (present), but that this was not mentioned on the form in English.
