Appliances Shipping Cost from Busan to Buenos Aires

Shipping to Argentina costs vary widely from around $20-$30 for small, light documents (USPS First-Class) to $100+ for heavier parcels, depending on speed, carrier ( USPS is cheapest, DHL, FedEx, UPS faster but pricier), and weight, with significant import duties (VAT + duty, often ~50% over $50 value) adding to the final cost for the recipient.

Shipping from Korea varies greatly, from around $30 for small, light items (USPS First-Class) to potentially hundreds for heavier boxes via premium couriers (EMS/DHL), with surface mail being cheapest but taking months, depending on weight, destination (e.g., US, Australia), speed (air/sea), and courier (Korea Post, DHL, UPS). Expect minimum $50 for a small box by air, but larger, heavier shipments can cost significantly more, with rates per kg dropping as weight increases.

Getting a package from Korea can take anywhere from a few days to a couple of months, depending heavily on the shipping method: Express/Air freight (FedEx, EMS) is fastest (2-7 days), Standard Airmail (Korea Post) takes 1-3 weeks, while Sea Freight (slow boat) is the cheapest but slowest, often taking 1-3 months. Key factors are speed (air vs. sea), carrier, destination, customs, and peak seasons.
