Appliances Shipping Cost from Seoul to Medellin

Shipping to Colombia costs vary widely from around $10 for a small, light package (1 lb) with budget services (like USPS First Class or Asendia) to $20-$70 for faster options (DHL, FedEx Priority) and over $100 for heavier items or premium speeds, depending heavily on weight, dimensions, chosen carrier (FedEx, DHL, UPS, USPS), and delivery time. Expect slower, cheaper economy options (weeks) versus faster, pricier express services (days).

Shipping from Korea to the US varies wildly, from ~$30 for small, light USPS items to $100s for heavier parcels via DHL/FedEx, with air freight costing $7-$100+/kg depending on weight, while ocean freight is cheaper for bulk but slower, and factors like volumetric weight, speed (air vs. sea), and item value (duties/insurance) heavily influence final costs.

Key takeaways. Laptops shipped to Colombia are generally subject to 0–5% import duty plus 19% VAT (IVA), making landed costs significantly higher than purchase price. All shipments require detailed documentation, including the importer's NIT tax ID, and may be delayed without a licensed customs broker.
