    Is there an equivalent to the Domestic Letter with tracking that we can use to send small items overseas?

    cheers

    Ask Your LPO. Also Check Custom declaration on what item can be send.
    There ruling / guideline to be follow.
    It also depending on country of destination? Embargo

    Some country are blacklisted due to parcel not receiving. You may want to find a proper channel of logistic and courier services.

    Some older coins can also be banned due to historical , cannot be send.
    Need to check this.
    In the end, to much hassle.

    This are Green Zone, shouldn't have issues.
    But US may changes the ruling as with the tariffs, so I won't want to deal with US.
    Changes can happens anytime, without justification.

    I've sent a 2008 5 oz PM Silver Bullion Mouse to USA years ago, it can be processed by the POST office. You have an insurance option as well.

    NZ I've done both ways in the past year, it works basically the same as posting domestically within Australia - the only hurdle was the Kiwi family member being silly enough to mention it was of a silver item and therefore the post office person at the other end went down the same path as they do here, saying that's forbidden to send or receive.

    How is it forbidden to send or receive silver by post when the Perth Mint and most bullion dealers use the postal system? Do they have an exemption ?

    Done 100-125 to US, CA, Germany over the last 5 years.

    Many variables to consider.
    What postal service.
    CN22/23 form
    EDN form for 2k+
    B319 form for a CCID if you have no ABN
    Do it yourself or through a broker
    Vague description allowed but must be correct tariff #
    *Otherwise there’s plenty other tricks to get around that from low-very high risk.
