Thanks for watching!
I always second guess myself shipping awkward items. This was super helpful thank you!
I'm glad I could help!
You’re doing the Lord’s work. Thank you for this great video! I’m about to ship my first fragrance, and before this video I was so lost on how I should properly pack and ship it. This saved me. You’re the man!
This video is very outdated. IF you use ORM-D labeling, you box will be returned. Please Note: As of January 1, 2021, Limited Quantity Labels replace the use of ORM-D labels per 49 CFR 172.315(d)(2).
Thank you for this concise informative video. I pull it up every time I have perfume to ship!
Glad I can help Amy!
It's outdated information at this point. Guidelines changed in 2021. If you try shipping using this method it may be returned back to you.
TY! Very helpful -- total nube, and I just sold a perfume . . . Now I can go to the post office! TY again!
This was very informative and answered everything I had questions about. Thanks man 🙏🏼, gonna sell some scents I haven’t used as much and I know other people would like more than me
Info is outdated. USPS changed guidelines in 2021. Also just fyi: EBay does not allow the sale of used or unboxed new cosmetics (perfume in same category).
Great video and very helpful for someone like me who is new to posting this sort of item. Thank you very much!
Glad I could help Matt!
Awesome video! So helpful! Thank you!
Glad I could help!
Thank you very much for the information in this video. It is the easiest step-by-step instructions for shipping liquids that I've found so far. Just shipped out my first package of perfume and followed exactly what you showed. Checked at the post office and they said it was perfect. Subscribing to your channel because of this. Thanks for making it so easy to ship!
Thanks for the kind words! Glad I could help!
Didn’t work for me, they said I need a hazmat sticker that goes on the top. All that writing didn’t mean anything to them. I went to 2 post offices .
@@edwardteague3893 Same here, they told me that they couldn't send my cologne international because it wasn't ground. I'm really frustrated and confused how some USPS will send it, while some won't.
As of January 1, 2021, Limited Quantity Labels replace the use of ORM-D labels per 49 CFR 172.315(d)(2). The new label can be purchased or made. The label is called” Limited Quantity Square on Point Warning Label”. There are two types. One for air, and one for ground. No perfume ( flammable) can EVER go on air transport including international without special permission from the DOT ( Department of Transportation), so ignore that label. All perfumes must go via ground (truck). IF you decide to make your own label, it must be 4” and put on the same side as the address. Only IF your box is too small should label be smaller, BUT it cannot be smaller than 2”. Also there must be a small border around the label which must be at least 0.08” or more. The label must be left blank. I found all this by googling “ how to mail perfume via USPS, and then reading the guidelines on shipping Level 3 hazmat items ( perfume is considered this level).
Thank you for this awesome video, as a business person we should still take time to research the video information ❤
Thank you for this tip!
Nicely done. Thanks!
Thank you as well!
Thank you for sharing this with us.
Glad I could help Eric!
Thank you for putting the writing for the label. I can never remember for the limited amount of items I have to ship like this.

Thank you so much my brotha
Appreciate your great info...new subbie!
Thanks for this detailed video - very clear. We have begun shipping colognes and fragrance body sprays via USPS domestic USA using the required Ground Surface labels which became a requirement after your initial video. We have been trying to get clarification from USPS (calls, emails) as far as shipping cross border USA to Canada, via same ground service and conditions. These are small consumer shipments well under the ounce parameters you mentioned. We cannot get a clear answer from USPS and prefer to not follow online blogs that simply say go ahead and ship... Local post offices also don't have the answer. Have you received anything definitive from USPS regarding cross border ground? Interestingly enough, Fedex seems to take far larger quantities cross border (they charge an arm & a leg...) and I've been told these shipments actually merge with USPS ground service, go figure. Any insight appreciated!
Thank you for this! I just came across a large about of new perfume bottles and was so confused as to how to ship. I see so many listings sending perfume bottles priority mail or first class.
I love your videos! Very informative.. I wish I had seen this one sooner. I had 3 bottles of opened Chanel and Dior Perfume of my moms I didn't know what to do with.Oh well now I know. Can I ship the perfume bottle USPS ground advantage? You didn't mention that one so Thought I should ask
This was so helpful! Where do I buy all the stuff for packaging? Office max?
Thank you. Thank you so much.
Glad I could help Ghada!
Thank for the video. I had a horrible day at usps today trying to send Christmas gift to Canada, long story. So trying to find more info after seeing your video I found out that USPS won't allow to ship to Canada with ground services…
Thank you!!!
You're welcome!
Thank you for the information. I just started selling nail polish remover on Amazon and would like to know if I’d have to follow the same prompt for shipping.
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!..new subbie
Thank you Milly!
@@CoachCommerce You are so welcome!
Unfortunately, the Consumer Commodity ORM-D is outdated. I got three packages with perfume back in the mail today. The note they included said that ORM-D was outdated as of Dec. 2020. I had no idea and neither did my post office. A new symbol sticker is added to the package instead of the writing. I am looking for more specifics on it now.
lol I was going to comment this after seeing your video! XD
So we don’t have to write anything extra ? Right . Say u use usps or ups ground and they have the option where they print the label for u , u don’t need to write anything else on the box ? Anyone know ?
@@danielalvarez2365 You have to add a hazard materials square marking. I have a video on my channel showing the correct marking and a link to print out the hazmat square.
Thank you for the video!!! I have 300+ perfumes and will be growing, should I just use Matson containers ( including all my things ) to ship to the Philippines if I ever retire? Or should I ship it like this? ( This gonna be hell more expensive though.
I'm trying to find an updated video on this! I don't understand the new changes in the description. It must ship ground for USPS?
Ups: After December 31, 2020, hazmat shippers will no longer be able to use the ORM-D Consumer Commodity marking on packages containing limited quantities of low risk hazardous materials. Packages must be marked with the Limited Quantity marking in accordance with the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49, Section 173.156.
where can you buy the label?
Thanks for the heads up! I'll make a memo in the description of this video of the changes. Thanks for letting me know!
Does that mean instead of writing ORM-D we must write Limited Quantity?
But the rest is the same ??
Thanks!
You're welcome Megan!
Thank you
Hi, Do i need to write down ORM-D message on the limited quantity stickers? Is it the same shipping packaging and labels for FEDEX and USPS?
Really helpful video, I’m about to send nail polish as a gift. Two questions though:
1. Will I get charged more money for shipping liquids, or just the normal rate?
2. Is it okay to ship other items in the same box as well? (Normal shippable items like toys, shirts, etc. for example)
Thanks for the compliment! And also, those are great questions.
1) The post office doesn't charge any additional fees for shipping liquids. They charge just as they do on every other package by using dimensional weight (package weight & size).
2) You can definitely ship with other items in the same box. As long as everything is packed well (to prevent breakage) you won't run into any issues.
I hope this helps!

This video is very useful for the people from US, for europe it is very complicated to ship fragrances for normal people. I called every possible company to ask them if they have a ground service or Boat transport. Almost impossible to do it the right way for "dangerous flammable items" like perfumes. Fedex and UPS told me that you can only ship if you are a shop and you have a contract with them. DHL and DPD told me no directly. The only way to do it is to pack it well but to not declare it as being a perfume inside of the box. after that pray that the customs don't discover it. Not a proper solution but most of the time there are no issues.
hi there.
what do you then declare it as? do you just leave the declaration blank? please respond, thanks.
@@sthandolanga6056 Hi, i declared it as a decoration jar. I packed it so well i was 100% sure this will go trough without any problems. Swiss post sent it back to me 2 days later with a letter saying that they saw it was a fragrance with the X-ray Scan. Was afraid they were going to make me pay something for the false declaration, luckily nothing happened i just recieved the fragrance back. Difficult, i gave up mate.
Thank you 😫😊
My ups store told me new rules say perfumes, liquid can no longer be shipped- is that true?
At the USPS post office recently, I asked for my package to be shipped Ground, but the clerk told me that he couldn't ship my item Ground, because the package has to be a certain weight, in order to ship it Ground. And because my package didn't meet the "weight requirement", the clerk sent the package First Class Mail, which was a more expensive shipping option. Was the clerk pulling my leg, or is that true, that a package has to meet a certain weight before it can be shipped Ground? Thank you!
Great tutorial! Is lotion, shower gel, or body spray, shipped the same way as perfume?
I sold some perfume printed off a first class label handed it to the post lady Mercari sent me a message staying I couldn’t get paid and the lady kept the perfume. I guess I put the wrong ounces I was so upset.
Thanks
What is this magnificent box you used?
I’m sure you ship fragrance USPS priority mail only if it’s in the same state. You’d have to ask your rep. But I ship a from San Diego to Los Angeles via priority all the time.
Otherwise out of state is always USPS ground shipping
That's a really good point. If it's in the same state it shouldn't land on a plane, and I wouldn't think you'd have any issues. The first time I shipped perfume I didn't realize the restrictions and shipped it airmail. The pressure from the altitude pressure made the entire bottle leak out. lesson learned I guess. But great suggestion with in state shipping. Thanks for the tip! ~ Justin
How shipping a body mist (it’s in a plastic bottle) and matching lotion sent also not breakable. How should these items be mailed and shipped. I’m hoping not to pay a fortune or it won’t be worth it to mail.
Thanks for your video!! 😀
Do you have any tips on shipping carbonated soda?
God bless you
Thank you for this video! I’m about to ship some perfumes (mainly 30ml and 50 ml) and I was looking on the Usps website and the info is so hard to follow. I was told we need to have a sticker on the box as well that is DOT approved? Is that true or is writing on the box good enough? Thank you!
I know the post office prefers stickers, but I've always used the writing method as an approved alternative. Personally, I don't ship perfumes in large enough quantities to justify purchasing the stickers. I've never had any problems with the post office using the method I showed (which I took from the USPS website). If I ever start shipping large quantities I'd probably start using them just to save the time. I hope this helps!
Hi. I'm having trouble finding information on shipping shampoos, conditioners and body lotions (as opposed to perfume and nail polish). Can they go by air in limited quantities? These are items that can go on a plane as a passenger.
Hi I have to send some of my desease mom’s clothes and perfumes and jewelry to my other sisters straight from Florida to New Jersey, you mean it must be parcel mail? I never done it and wanted to make sure, does UPS also allow it? Thanks for the video.
Hello! Sorry I’m just now seeing your comment. Yes, with every postal carrier they all require flammable liquids to be shipped ground. This federal aviation authority prohibits flammable liquids from being shipped on planes. Any ground service would be fine to ship perfume. Otherwise, you’re taking a risk if you try shipping it air mail. I hope this helps! ~ Justin
Awesome video. Do you know how many perfume bottle can you ship in one box?
Great question! According to the post office, it all depends on the flashpoint of the liquid. Perfume usually has a flashpoint between 140º F (60º C) band 200º F (93º C). According to these specifications, the post office will allow you to ship up to a gallon per package. If the flashpoint is lower (and the liquid is more flammable) you’d be limited to 1 quart. Any liquid with a flashpoint above 200 isn’t considered hazardous and has no limitations. I hope this all makes sense. You can find this detailed in greater length at the following link:

@@CoachCommerce thanks a bunch :)
Can you list the items used in the packing
What if you’ve other gifts (watch/ rings/bracelets) along with a perfume to pack for the shipment in one box? How do you label the box then? How do you select it for air or surface..
I just shipped my first perfume! Went well, but there is no insurance for ground shipping, retail ground is what they did, and so I had to buy insurance. Cost around 8.50 for the box and 3.50 for the insurance. I'm now trying to find out if body mist needs to go ground or can it go regular first class or flat rate? It has way less alcohol than perfume, but I can't find the answer.
The post office isn't very clear with liquids that aren't hazardous. If I were in your shoes and it wasn't very flammable, I'd probably try to send it first class or flat rate. With priority you wouldn't have to buy extra insurance either. Chances are you'd be safe as long as you're not shipping a massive amount of liquids. Hope this helps.
so was body mist capable of first class seating?
New to your video… great video! But what happens if you have a smaller box or sending in bubble mailer with no room to write all the information needed like you did in your video?
Thanks for watching! I'd probably try to avoid sending perfume & liquids in bubble mailers. You can, but you run a lot higher risk of the post office breaking the bottles. It's possible, but I'd suggest really padding the mailer with plenty of bubble wrap. Also, I do often use smaller boxes when shipping perfumes. When I do, I try to write as small as I can and try to fit as much as I can on the box. When space is tight, I use a pen instead of a marker. If you can't fit any writing, you may not have any issues at all. As long as the post office doesn't inspect the contents, or as long as it doesn't break or leak, then the post office would probably never know that you're not following their protocols with marking the package. I hope this helps!
~ Justin
@@CoachCommerce - thanks for the quick response! I will stick with smaller boxes instead on bubble mailers to be safe for packaging reasons and also I want to write what you suggested in your video! Appreciate your help
@@mouse7234 That's probably for the best. I worked in a mailing center in college and I know how rough the post office employees can be with packages. I always think of what I saw when sending breakables. lol Glad I could help, and I wish you the best with your shipments!
Any idea on how to keep lids from spilling from the lids
What do I need to do to ship 2 ounces of liquid outside the US?
I live in Texas. Will heat mess up shipped colognes?
Omg…. I just shipped a liquid today and I didn’t know I had to ship it differently :(
My anxiety just kicked now. This was my first time shipping a small bottle. I sealed the cork with glue so it doesn’t open but will it explode or anything? :((
I had no idea we had to ship them with all these things you just said. Am I going to be in trouble for that? I also gave it to the post office worker and she didn’t ask what was inside. Oh my gosh…Any advice on what should I do now?
Hey there! No need to get worried. More than likely you’ll have zero issues. If you packed it well and they didn’t ask, the post office will never know and you’ll be fine. The tips I share in this video are best practices and general rules that you want to try to follow if shipping flammable liquids on a regular basis. I hope this helps.
If it’s a small 3ml sample can you use normal mail?

Looking for the cheapest way to send a 6floz package of facial product on eBay. Any recommendations!!??
I just started selling redbull on ebay how do it shit this? I was planing on using a medium flate rate box
Does same process go for decants ?
Hey I am trying to figure out if I should ship ups ground or USPS parcel select ground could help by telling me which is better for my case I am shipping 5 perfumes together with a total of 8.1 fl oz
Lately, USPS has been more reliable and have given better service with their ground shipping. The last few months I've been disappointed with UPS ground I've had a few packages with UPS that have had very long delays in delivery. Which is crazy because in my 16 years of shipping with them i've never had issue until now. I'm hoping it's all covid related and that once the pandemic is over their service improves. If there's not much of a price difference, i'd probably use USPS if I were in your shoes. I hope this helps! ~ Justin
@@CoachCommerce thanks I just came from dropping it off I hope it arrives safely
- like the party ball game but making it next to impossible to get to the prize !
If you do it with this method, would you still need to buy the "limited quantity" sticker? I am trying to do via Pirate Ship since Ebay apparently does not have Parcel Select Ground as an option anymore.
Using this method is a way to get around having to use limited quantity stickers. If you're shipping in bulk, it's probably easier to purchase the stickers than it is to have to write out the ORM-D message. Also, it's definitely a bummer that eBay doesn't offer parcel post on their shipping label interface any longer. I have a feeling that they aren't offering it because they're really pushing to offer fast shipping to compete with Amazon. Hopefully it returns someday, because in cases like this it's necessary. Best of luck with your shipping!
@@CoachCommerce I appreciate it. I actually went to the USPS website after you mentioned it in your video and read that limited quantity was optional lol.
@@theartofreselling6059 Glad you were able to figure it out!
I just went to a UPS store shipment center to ship a 1oz perfume liquid but they don’t ship liquids
Okay I sent out perfume super well I put the perfume in a small brown box I handed it to the post lady them Mercari sent me a message that I couldn’t get paid I thought I did everything Right but I didn’t im out of the perfume and the perfume. I printed of afirst class label so shouldn’t it went first class instead of usps??
I'm sorry to hear that your having troubles with a sale. It's hard for me to give guidance without being able to see the message or knowing why Mercari is refusing the payout. I sell mainly on eBay and I know they have different policies the Mercari. But, in the times that I have had troubles with Mercari I've had a lot of success with calling a support rep. I'd start there and see why they are holding your funds and if there's anything that you can do to appeal the case. I hope this helps. ~ Justin
Does this same method apply to drinks/juices?
Yes. USPS just asks that liquids be identified on the outside of the box, and that the be triple packed like I showed in this video. If you want to look over more of the details, you can at the following link:
pe.usps.com/text/pub52/pub52c4_017.htm
Can you use the kiosk for ground mail?
That's a great question! I haven't used a kiosk in a while and don't know if there is a parcel or ground option on it (or if they only offer airmail). But if there is, you'd definitely be able to use it to mail liquids. Next time i'm at a post office with one I'll check and let you know. ~ Justin
Does anyone know how to ship perfume from US to Europe and how much it costs approx?
From what I can find, the instructions here are outdated. Pirateship has a page that describes the current, proper way to do this, called "Shipping hazardous materials with USPS".
hey! i'm from malaysia, i wanna buy body mist from BBW USA bcoz it's cheaper and have the scent that i want... so how can u ship perfume/body mist to other country? Pleasee helpp. Thank You
Hello,
Thanks for reaching out. That would really depend on the supplier or company that you're purchasing the perfume from. Sometimes they'll ship it themselves overseas. If they won't ship it, you could try reaching out to a 3rd party fulfilment company. Either way, you probably won't be able to avoid import and customs charges, and excise taxes. So, the cost of what you're seeing the perfumes selling for in the US probably won't be what it actually costs to get it delivered internationally. Either way, I wish you the best and hope that you can get what you are looking for.
Best regards,
Justin
would this also work with corrosive toilet bowl cleaners?
In general, corrosive liquids can be shipped if they are under 16 fluid ounces. Heavier corrosives (such as acid) have more strict limitations. For full information, you can check out the following link on the USPS website for more info:
pe.usps.com/text/pub52/pub52c3_026.htm#:~:text=All%20corrosives%20are%20prohibited.&text=A%20corrosive%20that%20can%20qualify,permitted%20via%20surface%20transportation%20only.
How about e liquid? That is in sealed plastic containers. They always sent them to me priority air.
That’s a great question and I’m honestly unsure. I’d imagine if they’re sent to you via priority from the distributor then there may not be a policy against it. Typically large companies that do high volume like that aren’t going to break postal codes and risk federal penalties with their business. Which makes me think they don’t have to be shipped ground. I tried checking the lost office website, and of course I didn’t see anything. I don’t know if it’s because the e-liquids are newer (and maybe there aren’t written policies yet), or if it’s because the post office is disorganized. You could always ask your local lost office or postmaster. If I were in your shoes, I’d probably just send it priority if it’s a one off and not a frequent order. Hope this helps, and sorry I couldn’t be more definitive. ~ Justin
where can i find those box?
How should I ship shampoo in a plastic bottle?
Hi can I ship it to Japan ? International?
Now they require label… how I can get it?
What about international packages? Can those be sent airmail?
Hello! It's risky airmailing perfume internationally because it's technically not legal due to the hazards of flammability on planes. Some people will just be deceptive and do it anyway, but in my opinion it's never worth the chance of getting caught. Most people that ship perfumes internationally use forwarding services to legally mail bottles internationally. I would search for forwarding/ redirection services near you and ask them. Most of the larger companies have contracts with carriers that allow them to ship hazardous liquids, and will gladly handle the shipping for you. I hope this helps! ~ Justin
Could I ship two 4oz room sprays and an 8oz candle using this method going parcel select?
Thanks for your video by the way, I learned a lot!
Hey Devin! According to the USPS website, the post office will allow you to ship up to a gallon of liquid per package (when shipping via surface mail). Since you are using parcel select you'd be fine. Thanks for the compliment, and I hope this info helps as well!
My perfume is in the box not opened yet how could I ship it
Hi Kendall. I'd just put bubble wrap around the box, and then pad the perfume with packing packing material (such a peanuts or packing paper). The perfume should be pretty secure inside the manufacturer box, but you don't want it rattling around inside whatever box you're shipping it in. I hope this helps!

Can we ship pepper spray from CA?
Pepper spray I'm not very familiar with. But, I'd assume that since it may be considered a volatile liquid that it should probably be sent via ground mail.
Ugh I sent a perfume via First Class. From east coast to west coast. I hope it’s ok this one time.
It probably will be. I’ve done it many times on accident and haven’t had issues. With the volume of deliveries they handle they more than likely won’t catch it. The way they catch people most of the time is by asking by at the counter. As long as you packed it securely it will probably be fine.
@@CoachCommerce ok. I shipped it via selling on Mercari- I didn’t see an option for the methods you mentioned. And yeah I used a sh*t ton of bubble wrap lol.

My postoffice told me that it has to be less than 3oz? Are they wrong? Actually, one guy said 4oz, one said 1oz, and another said 3oz. They all argued and the supervisor came and settled at 3oz.
Good question. I have a feeling your postmaster was referring to sending perfumes air mail. Technically, alcohol based perfumes that are under 3oz fall under the TSA's rules for allowance on air mail. This would include First Class and Priority mail. However, any liquid (perfume included) that is over 3 oz should be sent ground mail. Perfumes fall under the flammable & combustible liquids category. Therefore, you can ship up to a gallon via ground (if packaged properly). It's kind of funny, but a lot of regional and local postal employees aren't even fully versed on the rules. When it doubt, consult with the USPS national guidelines on their website. I've even had to show them to my local postmaster at times as well. You can find more info at the following links if you want to study up on it:

@@CoachCommerce thank you so much!! i did look it up on the website and i thought i was going crazy! When 3 people in USPS are literally laughing in your face when you tell them their website says up to 1 gallon, it can really convince you that you're wrong!! Phew, i feel better at least. Now to convince them that they are all wrong... or maybe just print my own label and ship it ground 😅
@@Charcharazard Haha. I know exactly what you mean. It is really somewhat ridiculous that there's so much misinformation within the post office. I understand that their a huge national organization, but you'd think that there would be better conveyance of information from the top down. Even the USPS website is somewhat clunky and scattered in some places. Oh well, what can you do right? I'd do the same thing if I were in your shoes. Whenever I ship liquids, I do my best to follow protocols and policies. But, I've never had any issues whenever I've kept my mouth shut and just given it to them. I think that they process so much postage that they never inspect what's inside. Unless you're shipping drugs that dogs could sniff out, I doubt you'd have any issues unless the bottle broke. Pack it well and I bet you'll be just fine. Best of luck!
Can I just tell the employees that I have a perfume in the box? Will they label it properly for me?
How did this go?
Do I proceed in the same way for perfume samples?
Hey Ali! Honestly, with samples you're probably fine shipping them via first class mail. Anything under 4 oz the post office isn't overly concerned with going via ground. You shouldn't have any issues as long as you pack it well so that it doesn't break. I hope this helps!
@@CoachCommerce thank you for sharing!
Can you ship liquids from USA to canada?
I don't believe you're allowed to ship liquids internationally via USPS. I don't know about other carriers though.
What if you have a million perfumes and moving active country 😊
There goes all your profits
Dude they will not take perfume because I ask someone to mail it back to Russia they refuse so I waited for a week accepting that however I couldn’t accept because I ordered some at eBay then I canceled the order right away however the lady declined my order cansolation and send me the perfume it cost me 127.82 I feel like I was robbed so I packed it well and send it to fast class econome they took it

What shipping do I choose to buy on eBay?
You'll want to choose a ground option. On ebay the only current ways to ship ground are UPS and Fedex. Ebay used to offer ground with the USPS, but they took the option away for some reason recently. USPS ground is cheaper than UPS and Fedex, so if you want to go that route you'd want to purchase the postage off of ebay and upload the tracking number. With all that being said, the post office would never know if you used air mail if you pack it well and made sure it doesn't break or leak during transit (wink wink).
@@CoachCommerce Thanks so much. This was very helpful.
How can I ship it internationaly from europe to africa. (Gift)
I'm sorry, but i'm not familiar with international shipments in Europe & Africa. I know here in the US, the post office doesn't allow you to ship perfumes internationally since they travel via air. You'd have to check with your local postal carrier to find out the processes & rules.
Best regards,

What about skin so soft oil spray
Since Skin So Soft is flammable, you'd want to make sure you follow similar shipping procedures from mailing it via ground. It would be restricted via Airmail. I hope this helps.
Can you ship with a a PlayStation
what is the cost of shipment ?
The cost varies with the post office depending on what you are sending. The post office charges by dimensional weight so the price would increase as you package gets heavier or larger in size. If you're looking for a cost quote on a specific item, you can always use a free online shipping service such as Pirateship or Shippo to get an idea of what your cost would be. You can also purchase shipping labels directly from these websites. I hope this helps!

Does this apply to shipping overseas from the US?
Great question. When shipping liquids overseas, shipping regulations are subject to those foreign countries’ prohibitions and restrictions. Different countries can vary greatly, so I’d just check with the customs protocols for the countries you plan on shipping to.
USPS will not ship perfume overseas as all overseas mail goes by air.
Thanks for the info!
Ups just told me they can ship it. The auto recorded message on their hazmat line, said that as of January 2021they stopped sending any package with the orm-d will not be used
After December 31, 2020, hazmat shippers will no longer be able to use the ORM-D Consumer Commodity marking on packages containing limited quantities of low risk hazardous materials. Packages must be marked with the Limited Quantity marking in accordance with the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49, Section 173.156.
