USPS Customs Forms
Customs forms are necessary for all international shipments and for all parcels sent to an Army Post Office (APO), a Fleet Post Office (FPO), and for Diplomatic Post Office (DPO) destinations. These forms are a summary of the contents of the shipment, the information about the sender and the addressee. This information is necessary for the border control inspection at the border of the accepting country. The preparation of the customs form is the responsibility of the sender.
The USPS releases several customs forms: the appropriate form (except for the PS Form 2976-R) is determined by the mailing service the sender is using:
- If the parcel is sent via the First-Class Mail Internationa, for First-Class Package International Service items, and M-bags PS Form 2976 is necessary. This form will be also required for certain Priority Mail Express International items.
- All shipments sent via the Priority Mail International require PS Form 2976-A. This form should not be used for packages destined to military mail within the U.S.Territories.
- All Priority Mail Express International Items and Priority Mail Express items mailed to Army Post Office (APO), Fleet Post Office (FPO), or Diplomatic Post Office (DPO) destinations require PS Form 2976-B.
Each of these forms requires preparing three copies. The first copy is for the sender, the second is prepared for customs and the third copy should be kept at the post office for 30 days.
PS Form 2976-R serves as a worksheet, that the sender can obtain and fill only at the post office. The information from this form is entered into the retail system or Customs Forms Online and then the appropriate form is generated and affixed to the parcel. The PS 2976-R cannot be used as a stand-alone customs form. PS Form 2976-E and PS Form 2976-ES are envelopes, made of transparent plastic. They are designed to contain the customs forms and other necessary papers and protect them. The difference between the two forms is the size. The PS 2976-ES is a smaller envelope, designed for small parcels, for which the PS 2976-E does not fit.
All customs forms (except for the PS 2976-R) can be filled online. The USPS website offers the Click-N-Ship tool, that generates the completed appropriate customs form after entering all necessary data.
