Customs
Lebanon has no de minimis for personal shipments — duty and 11% VAT apply from the first dollar of value. Customs rates depend on goods category (0–70%). Lebanon has been in a severe economic crisis since 2019 — the recipient must pay customs charges in USD or equivalent. Clearance can take 5–14 days. We recommend exclusively DHL or FedEx with the DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) option.

- CN22 is a simplified customs declaration for parcels up to 2 kg and €270 in value. Completed at the post office or generated by the carrier. Without CN22, the parcel may be held at customs.
