Appliances Shipping Cost from Busan to Lima

International Shipping rates to Peru from the US F.A.Q. International shipping rates are typically more expensive than domestic shipping rates. This is because of several factors, such as import taxes, customs duties, logistics, and fuel costs involved in delivering shipments overseas.

Essentially, shipping from Korea is not expensive in itself, but it is international shipping that is expensive. In fact, Korea is considered one of the least expensive Asian countries for shipping.

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.
