Shipping from South Dakota to Latvia

Shipping a 20 lb package costs roughly $20-$40 for ground services (UPS, FedEx, USPS Ground Advantage) for shorter distances, but can range from $13 to over $100+ for faster or international options, depending heavily on the carrier, speed, and distance (zone). USPS Ground Advantage is often economical, while faster FedEx/UPS options like Next Day Air become much pricier, and sometimes splitting into lighter boxes (under 20 lbs) can be cheaper with USPS.

Very generally, your national postal service will be the cheapest way to ship internationally. The Universal Postal Union has been in place since 1874 reliably transferring documents and goods to over 190 nations. One interesting sidelight.

Customs duty is levied on goods imported into Latvia. The rate of customs duty is generally between 0% and 20% of the value of imported goods, depending on their type and origin. Exports are generally exempt.

Yes, Latvia is generally friendly and safe for Americans, though Latvians can be reserved initially; they are helpful and welcoming once you engage, and the U.S. is considered a strategic partner, with high English/Russian fluency making communication easy, just be mindful of potential scams in nightlife.

Many people question whether Amazon will actually send ordered products to Latvia. It is true that most of the times they do, but other times it all depends on the seller.
