Shop from USA to Peru: Routes, Costs and Customs Guide

You can shop from USA to Peru with Amaboxly in three ways: order an item already listed in our shop, ask us to buy from a US store for you, or buy it yourself and forward the parcel. Each route has its own costs, timing and return rules, and any import charges set by SUNAT are paid separately by you.

What a delivered price to Peru is made of

The US sticker price is only one part of the total. What you pay depends on the route.

Peruvian import duties and taxes are separate in every case and are never included in our prices, delivery fees or freight.

Shop prices can be shown in Peruvian soles (PEN) as an estimate. We charge in ringgit at checkout and your bank converts, so the final amount can differ slightly.

Forwarding freight for Peru

Peru uses our standard worldwide air-freight rate, which is twice the matching Malaysia rate per kg on the shipping fees page. Two worked examples:

• 1 kg: USD 36.00 x 2 = USD 72.00 per kg, so USD 72.00 in total.
• 10 kg: USD 11.50 x 2 = USD 23.00 per kg, x 10 kg = USD 230.00 in total.

Billed weight is the higher of actual and dimensional weight, with a 1 kg minimum per box. Dimensional weight is length x width x height in inches, divided by 166 for pounds, then multiplied by 0.4536 for kg. A carton of 18 x 14 x 10 inches gives 2,520 / 166 = 15.18 lb, or 6.89 kg, so a 4 kg parcel in that box is billed on the 7 kg row.

Door delivery in Peru, import or clearance charges and extra services are confirmed separately in your quote. The calculator on that page estimates Malaysia forwarding, so its totals should not be assumed for Peru.

Three ways to shop from USA to Peru

An item already listed in our shop

If the item you want is already on our shop, use the product page and shop checkout. Each product page shows its category: Pre-Order (bought from the US store after you order), Ready Stock USA (already held at our US location) or Ready Stock Malaysia. The shop’s own price, delivery and returns policy apply.

Buy for me

Send the exact US product link through your Forwarding account (My Account, Forwarding, choose "Buy for me"). We review availability, eligibility and purchase details, then place and pay for the retailer order after you pay the payment request. Retailer acceptance and stock are never guaranteed.

Include the product name, size, colour, quantity, store price, a screenshot of the cart or product page and any promotion details. The Buy for me page shows the current fee.

I bought something

You buy from the US retailer yourself and send the parcel to the receiving address and suite we confirm. Choose "I bought something" in your Forwarding account, get the complete address before checkout, keep your receipt and tracking number, then declare the parcel with accurate contents and paid value. You review the quote before authorizing shipment. Our worldwide parcel forwarding page explains the service.

Checks before you pay a US store

Ask for a Peru-specific quote before buying or shipping. A listed country does not mean every item, carrier route or postcode is accepted, so tell us whether the parcel is going to Lima, Arequipa or a smaller town.

Some items need extra review first: batteries (installed or spare), power banks, liquids, aerosols, cosmetics, magnets, items with radio functions, fragile glass or ceramics, and bulky household goods. We do not sell freight insurance and forwarding terms give no loss or damage cover, so fragile items and liquids travel at your risk.

Our US base is New Hampshire, which has no general state sales tax. That can benefit eligible purchases delivered to the confirmed New Hampshire receiving address. It does not remove Peru’s import duties, taxes or clearance charges.

Timing, deposit and balance for Peru orders

Pre-Order and Ready Stock USA items take about 30 days from the order date. That is an estimate, since peak seasons, US store delays and customs inspections can add a few days. We send a WhatsApp update at each stage.

A 50% deposit is offered on Pre-Order items only. On the product page, choose the colour, choose "Pay 50% deposit" and add to bag. Checkout shows what you pay today and the balance due later.

Orders for Peru ship straight from our New Hampshire hub, so the balance is paid before the item leaves the USA. The payment link arrives by email and WhatsApp, and the item ships by FedEx once the balance is paid.

For forwarded parcels, about 30 days is a planning estimate. Confirm departure, arrival and local delivery timing with us.

SUNAT and import charges

SUNAT is Peru’s customs authority, and it decides what duty or tax applies to your parcel. In general, customs looks at the declared value and item description, and may ask for receipts. Any charge is the buyer’s responsibility.

We declare the accurate item value on customs forms, and for forwarding we need an accurate declaration and receipt from you. We do not quote Peruvian thresholds or rates here, so check SUNAT’s current guidance before you order.

Returns and cancellations

Shop orders can be returned within 30 days of delivery, including change of mind. Change-of-mind returns must be in new condition, carry a 10% restocking fee on the total paid for the order, and the cost of shipping it back to the seller from Peru is deducted from your refund. Contact us with your order number and reason before sending anything back. The refund and returns policy has the full terms.

You can cancel a Pre-Order or Ready Stock USA item any time before delivery. A 10% processing fee is deducted and payment gateway fees are not refunded. If the US store sells out before we secure your item, we refund everything paid for it, including the deposit.

A Buy for me request can be cancelled free while it is Submitted or Information needed. Once the item has been bought, the charge is USD 35 per checkout. Forwarded parcels can go back to the US seller for a per-package handling fee plus a return label you pay for, supplied as a PDF or JPG.
