Gifts up to 100 Swiss Francs are duty-free for personal use, provided a clear invoice is included, and items containing jewelry require a detailed invoice specifying materials and value. All items sent via Parcel Monkey are Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU), so the recipient will be contacted by customs to pay any duty owed. Please ensure you provide up-to-date contact details for the recipient so they can be contacted.
