Why Romania needs special attention
Shipments to Romania are within Europe: more sorting hubs, more handling, more impact risk. Packaging matched to both item and destination makes the difference between an intact arrival and a bad surprise.
La Romania è in UE dal 2007: niente customs, tempi 3–5 days standard.
The 5 steps to pack printer for Romania
Step 1 — Materials needed. rimuovi cartucce, box originale, blocca testina con nastro adesivo.
Step 2 — Clean and prepare. Clean printer before packing. Customs declarations require precise descriptions: remove old labels and photograph the item before wrapping.
Step 3 — Inner protective layer. wrap printer con minimo 3 strati di pluriball (o 4-5 for oggetti very delicati). Non save sull'packaging: il parcel passa for 2-3 hub europei.
Step 4 — Sturdy box. Double-wall corrugated cardboard, 5–10 cm larger than the contents on every side. Never reuse crushed boxes: cardboard loses strength after 1–2 shipments.
Step 5 — Sealing and labelling. H-shaped seal with 50+ mm tape. Label in Italian and English (or Romania's local language if relevant). FRAGILE label on 2 sides if applicable.
Documents for Romania
Romania is in the EU: no extra customs paperwork required, just the carrier label.
Common mistake: declaring zero value as a "gift". Carriers require the real value for insurance and customs. Always be honest.
