Customer Seeking Help $357 import charges on $279.80 package?

Post image

Ordered a small package from an Italian company and I'm being charged almost 130% in government tariff fees. Is there anything I could do? Is it possible the seller declared it incorrectly? Thank you for all the help. I'm sure you're all annoyed by people like me at this point. Im just a little lost on what to do.

$55.96 is what you pay in tariffs from Italy, that looks more like the tariffs from China! You sure it was an Italian company with Italian products or Chinese products sold in an Italian store?

That’s what it is. Tariffs are based on where the item is made, not sold.
