I want to send it to Russia.
Raw coffee beans.
DHL does not accept it for shipment

I've been using VNPT ever since I got here, and haven't had any problems, and I've mailed a bunch of coffee. Matter of fact I just sent 8K of coffee to Hawaii, postage was about 900,000VND.

It is strange for me! they refused me to accept coffee

Restrictions might be based on Russian customs.

Best to make friends with VietNam Airways cabin crew. Aeroflot crews would most likely charge too much. Both have direct VN<>Russia flights.

NINE KG is a very large "sample"!

I found this on the InterNet:

PROHIBITED ITEMS
 Narcotics/illegal drugs of any kind & medication
 Pornography and any subversive material against the Russian Federation
 Explosives, ammunitions and weapons of any kind
 Radio devices, transmitters/receivers, cable TV systems and navigation devises operating at
frequencies higher than 9 kHz
 Toxic and radioactive materials including aerosols of any kind
 Taxidermy, skins, tusks, furs etc
 Food including coffee & tea
