I have several relatives in Hungary that I want to ship presents to and am concerned about the high VAT tax. Some presents are going to family members in the same town, so I was considering sending them in a box together to save on shipping costs, other family members will have to receive their own shipment. Each individual present isn't super high cost, generally less than 100 USD, but if I ship multiple together, it may be worth several hundred dollars. I heard that the VAT has to be paid if it is above a certain value (anyone know what that value is?), I also read in a different forum that if I wrap and individually label presents for each person, then I can get away with having individual values, rather than the value of the entire box.
Sorry if this is confusing... I have a bunch of things that my family wanted, but there is no point if they have to pay an extra 30 percent on top of what I have already spent and the cost of shipping.
