Appliances Shipping Cost from Kuwait City to Oslo

Shipping to Norway costs vary widely from about $25 for a light, slow parcel (1 lb) to over $100 for heavier/faster options, depending heavily on weight, speed, and courier, but expect extra import duties/VAT for your recipient, potentially adding significant cost, especially if the item value plus shipping exceeds ~900 NOK (approx. $90 USD). Budget options like Budget Economy (USPS/MyUS) start cheap, while FedEx / DHL are faster and pricier, with UPS offering mid-range solutions.

Customs Duties, Taxes, and Import Regulations in Kuwait Customs duties: Generally, Kuwait imposes a standard duty rate of 5% on most goods, calculated on CIF (Cost + Insurance + Freight) value. Some items may have different rates or be exempt.

To ship a washer and dryer, you need to prepare them by cleaning, disconnecting, and securing the drum (washer), then pack them securely on a pallet with plenty of padding (blankets, foam), and finally use a freight or specialized appliance shipper like FedEx LTL or U-Ship, as they're too big for standard carriers, ensuring they're strapped tightly but not overly so.
