The questions everyone asks
How long does shipping to Lima take?
Via DHL Express / FedEx International Priority: 5-7 business days for most orders. Add 1-2 days for in-house processing (we shop or receive your inbound package, photograph contents, then ship). USPS Priority Mail International economy options are slower (8-14 days) but cheaper.
What's the customs duty threshold for Perú?
US$200 (SUNAT envíos personales) Above the threshold, expect import duty + VAT/local sales tax per destination rules. We declare honest values and use gift markings where applicable; under-declaring is illegal and risks confiscation.
Which US stores ship to Lima via Selectido?
All of them. Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Apple, Sephora, Costco, Trader Joe's (via live shopping since TJ's doesn't ship), Whole Foods, Macy's, Nordstrom, Lululemon, Nike, REI, Patagonia, and 200+ more. We've shipped from every major US retailer.
Can Selectido buy items in-store for me in the US and ship to Lima?
Yes — that's our live shopping service. $75/hr with 15% off 2+ hour bookings. Particularly useful when the US site won't ship to forwarder addresses (Apple, Sephora, Best Buy) or when your card gets declined at US checkout. We shop on FaceTime; you see what's in the cart in real time.
What's the cheapest way to ship a package to Lima?
For low-value items: USPS Priority Mail International (slower, 8-14 days, cheap). For higher-value or time-sensitive: DHL Express / FedEx International Priority (fast, full tracking, customs cleared smoothly). Consolidating multiple orders into one outbound shipment typically saves 30-50% per item.
How does Selectido handle customs paperwork for Perú?
Honest declared values on the commercial invoice. Harmonized tariff codes per item category. Gift markings when applicable (lowers duty for personal gifts in some countries). We provide tracking with customs status updates. If a package is held by destination customs, we coordinate with you to provide additional documentation.
¿Qué pasa si mi paquete se retiene en SUNAT?
SUNAT es eficiente para envíos personales bajo US$200. Si hay retención, DHL/FedEx coordina con el destinatario para DNI/pasaporte y documentación adicional. La mayoría se libera en 3-5 días hábiles. Pagamos cualquier impuesto adicional primero y te lo facturamos.
Can I pay Selectido in soles peruanos (PEN)?
Yes — Stripe handles automatic currency conversion at interbank rates (no FX markup from Selectido). We also accept Wise, Revolut, and many local payment methods including local bank transfer. Pay in your currency or USD, your choice.
📦 Quick reference: Personal-import threshold US$200 (SUNAT envíos personales). Primary carrier: DHL Express / FedEx International Priority. We optimize shipment splitting where it makes economic sense (smaller shipments under threshold vs. one big shipment with duty).
