Sending mail to South Korea?

Question

I live in the USA and I was wondering how long it would take to send something to S. Korea and have it delivered there?

And if there is anyway to send it FAST & how much will that cost?

Answer 1

If you are talking about a letter only then you can send it priority mail for $16.00 and it will be there in a couple of days.

Packages cost anywhere from $40.00 and up and take about 1 week.

Answer 2

Generally first class mail takes about 10-14 days.

Answer 3

I just sent a Fedex package that weighed less than 2 lbs.  I used the fastest option they had and it cost $106.00 including insurance.  It was there two days later.  However, I had issues with customs releasing it because the Fedex folks didn't tell me I would need a commercial shipping invoice describing what was in the package.  It took another another two days after I faxed the invoice to Fedex.  I don't know if there is another faster, cheaper way.
