Use the UPS Import/Export tool for country-specific info
When shipping internationally with UPS, you can plug your origin country (the United States) and destination country into their Import/Export Regulations tool to get information specific to the country you're shipping to.
This information can be helpful for determining the following:
Restricted or prohibited items: The UPS Import/Export Regulations tool will help you determine whether the item(s) you're sending is restricted or prohibited by either UPS or the destination country you're shipping to
Size & weight limits: This tool will display whether your destination country imposes size and weight limits for individual packages
Every country is different, and some destinations have different limits for how big and heavy your package can be!
Customs duties and import taxes: The UPS Import/Export Regulations tool will tell you if your package can be exempt from taxes as a "gift," and at what value your recipient(s) will incur customs duties and import taxes
