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

You can shop from the USA to Romania with Amaboxly in three ways: order an item listed in our shop, ask us to buy from a US store for you, or buy it yourself and forward the parcel. Shop Pre-Orders for Romania ship straight from our New Hampshire hub, and any import duty or tax charged by Romanian Customs is yours to pay.

What a delivered price in RON is made of

Prices on amaboxly.com can be shown in RON as an estimate. We charge in ringgit at checkout and your bank converts, so the amount on your statement can differ slightly. Card payments work from Romania, while FPX online banking is for Malaysian billing addresses.

A shop order has three cost pieces: the item price on the product page, a live delivery quote per item shown at checkout before you pay, and any duty or tax Romania charges on arrival. That last piece is not included in our prices or delivery fees.

A forwarded parcel adds up differently: what you paid the US retailer, air freight on the billed weight, then door delivery, import or clearance charges and any services, which we confirm separately in your quote. Buy for me adds a small assisted-purchase fee per checkout, shown on the Buy for me page and in your payment request.

Freight examples for Romania

Romania uses our standard worldwide air-freight rate, which is twice the Malaysia rate card on the shipping fees page. The calculator there estimates Malaysia deliveries, so read these figures as the freight line only and ask us for a Romania quote.

Billed weight is the higher of actual and dimensional weight, with a 1 kg minimum per box. A box of 18 x 12 x 10 inches gives 2,160 / 166 = about 13 lb, and 13 x 0.4536 = about 5.9 kg. A light item in that box is billed on about 5.9 kg, which falls in the 6 kg row. Rates are reviewed and may change.

Three ways to shop from the USA to Romania

Shop product pages show the category (Pre-Order, Ready Stock USA or Ready Stock Malaysia). The 50% deposit is offered in the Pre-Order category only.

With Buy for me, you send the exact US product link through your Forwarding account. We review availability, eligibility and purchase details, then place the order after you pay the payment request. Retailer acceptance and stock are never guaranteed.

With parcel forwarding (the "I bought something" option), there is no Amaboxly purchase fee. Get the complete receiving address and suite from My Account, Forwarding, before you check out. Keep your receipt and retailer tracking number, declare the parcel with accurate contents and paid value, then review the quote before authorizing shipment.

Deposit and balance for Romanian Pre-Orders

On a Pre-Order product page, choose the colour, select "Pay 50% deposit" and add to bag. Cart and checkout show what you pay today and the balance due later. Ready Stock items are paid in full.

Orders for Europe ship straight from New Hampshire, so the balance is paid before the item ships from the USA. The payment link arrives by email and WhatsApp, and you can pay without logging in or from My Account, Orders, Pay. The item ships once the balance is paid.

Timing: plan around 30 days

Pre-Order items are usually bought within 1 to 3 business days, with a first update within 3 to 5 business days. Estimated delivery is 30 calendar days from the order date. Ready Stock USA items are already at our US location and also take about 30 days from the order date.

The date at checkout is an estimate. Peak seasons, US store delays and customs inspections can add a few days. Shop orders to Romania go by FedEx, and international parcels are usually in transit 1 to 5 working days after dispatch.

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

What to check before you buy

Ask for a Romania quote on WhatsApp or through our contact page before buying or shipping. A listed country does not mean every item, carrier route or postcode is accepted.

Some goods 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 items. Prohibited items can be held and disposed of.

We do not sell freight insurance, and forwarding terms give no loss or damage cover. Glass, ceramics and liquids travel at your risk.

For Buy for me, send the product URL, real product name, size, colour, quantity, store price and a screenshot.

Romanian Customs and your paperwork

Romania sets the duties and taxes on imported goods, and the buyer pays them. We declare the accurate item value on customs forms. For forwarded parcels, we need an accurate declaration and receipt from you, so keep your paperwork.

New Hampshire has no general state sales tax, which can benefit eligible purchases delivered to the confirmed receiving address. It does not remove Romanian import duties, taxes or clearance charges. Check Romanian Customs’ current guidance for your item before you order.

Returns and cancellations

Under our refund and returns policy, shop orders can be returned within 30 days of delivery. Change-of-mind returns must be in new condition, carry a 10% restocking fee of the total amount paid for the order, and the cost of shipping it back to the seller is deducted from your refund. Contact us with your order number before sending anything back.

Cancelling a Pre-Order or Ready Stock USA item before delivery costs a 10% processing fee, and payment gateway fees are not refunded. If the US store sells out first, we refund everything paid for that item, including the deposit.

A Buy for me request is free to cancel while it is Submitted or Information needed. Once the item has been bought, the charge is USD 35 per checkout. Returning a forwarded parcel to the US seller means a per-package handling fee plus a return label you pay for, as a PDF or JPG.
