Customs declaration when shipping to overseas military
Make sure the country you're sending to allows the importation of meats. Most do not. Google imm USPS (name of country), make sure meats aren't on the prohibited list. More on reddit.com

How do I mail a care package?
You can Google “military care package usps” and it will bring up a link for some stuff that can be sent to you. It used to have boxes of various sizes, tape, labels, and I can’t remember if it had custom forms or not but it’s been a while since I ordered so it could possibly just be boxes now. The mail person will drop it off. It can take a couple weeks or a couple days to get so you can always go down to the post office and just get a box. Make sure to fill out the customs form and don’t put the country they are in anywhere on it. APO or FPO is city. AE or AP (I’ve only sent to those two so there is possibly more) is state and then there should be a zip code. More on reddit.com

USPS.com printed customs forms not accepted by local post offices?
Just use PirateShip.com and pay for the postage at the same time rather than monkeying around with doing the customs forms separate and then trying to pay postage at what is likely a manual office. "Scan prepaid acceptance, please, thank you, bye." The account there is free, you'll also get price comparisons to UPS (not that UPS is ever cheaper), and you just have to print the label/customs form label which you can put on the front of your package. As for the specific issue, they're likely trying to scan it pre-paid acceptance and it's not postage, it's just the customs form. The computer should prompt for the customs form scan if it's not a manual office, and if it is a manual office, they can't accept digital customs forms anyway. More on reddit.com

Military Sale/Tracking/Custom's Form? Eeek!

You don’t need a customs form because you’re not shipping to a foreign country. You’re shipping to a consolidation hub in the US, and the military takes over delivery from there. The package is destined for US temporary soil in a foreign country. It’s all part of our agreements with those host countries. These packages can take a long time because they’re shipped as space is available. When I lived in Germany we once had a package take 6 months to arrive.

r/USPS on Reddit: Customs declaration when shipping to overseas military
November 21, 2023 -

I am not entirely sure if this is the right place for this question. As the title says, I am filling out the customs declaration to ship a package overseas. I understand I need to be fairly specific, but want to know exactly how specific when it comes to two items.

I have two different types of jerky I’m sending (beef and turkey). Do I need to put those on separate lines or can I write them in as “jerky” or “meat jerky”.

I have prepackaged trail mix and smoked peanuts. Do those need to be on a separate line or can I write them in as “nut trail mix” or something along those lines.

If I don’t hear from anyone before I send this, I’ll error on the side of caution and declare them individually. I was just hoping I didn’t have to since it would mean filling out another form since the first doesn’t have enough room.
