I want to send something to my fiance back in Morocco but I don't really know how, I have been to the local post office and that just made me confused so much paper work, which I didn't expect, I never sent anything internationally before so I don't know how can anyone help?

I have his home address but it just looks so odd to me compared to mine here in the states so writing it on the packages and the letter I could use help on that too

any help is much appreciated

  1. If you live in the United States, you will need to itemize  a form stating the contents of the package....no liquids, perishables, etc.can be mailed. You can pick up the forms at the post office and take it home if you need extra time. Also depending on the size and weight of the package , you might consider using a flat-rate box, there are 3 different sizes and rates, weigh your package and see if it will save you money that way. (One note, you can't send any personal correspondence in the flat-rate packages) I have saved from $8-$12 by using a flat-rate box and packing the contents very densely.The post office provides the flat-rate boxes free of charge. Go to the country index listed below and click on Morocco. You can read the various ways of mailing and the prohibited items., and compare the rates on the charts. You will be allowed a certain amount of insurance, depending on how heavy the package is, if the contents are more valuable than the insurance that is included with the rates, you can purchase extra for a nominal fee. From my own experience, if you mail anything this close to Ramadan, don't expect it to arrive at your destination until after Ramadan because the postal workers there work shorter hours during the holidays.  Morocco's postal code has a BP in front of it, don't write the word "zip" on the package, that word means something offensive in Morocco.  : )  Make sure your package is taped well on the all the seams, the US postal inspectors will open it up to inspect it, and probably the Moroccan postal inspectors as well. Hopefully they will tape it back the same way for you.


  2. Hon, there is no "fiancee" in Morocco, just marriage scam!!

    Have him send YOU something!! to see what I mean.

    Tell me, is it a cell phone?? Jeans?? or better yet tennis shoes that he wants???

    oi!! don't be a fool. They are wanting green card.

  3. I send things to Morocco all of the time for my daughter. It cost me 67.00 to send 11 lbs. just fill out the paper all it ask is what is in the package it's not too hard at all.

  4. there is too many ways , if it's less than 70 lbs :

    Global express mail ( 3 to 4 business days)

    Priority mail ( 6 - 10 business days)

    First Class mail ( it depends)

    go to the l**k below to calculate the rate
