Shipping cost to Brazil

[Phoenix13]

I was wondering if anyone may have an idea of how much it costs to ship from the US to Sao Paulo? I'm just looking for an estimate - we're expecting a large amount of stuff. I'm in the process of collecting soccer equipment to send to the favelas.

If you had the cost of say a 10lb. pkg. then I could figure things from there.

Thanks for your help.

It's hard to say exactly. Maybe 40-50 dollars if you get the option 1 up from the cheapest.

Ask the post office. Or UPS etc.

A 27" TV box full costs about $110 from Confianca. You can fit a hell of a lot of stuff in it.

PM if you need info. They are located in NY, NJ, LA, Miami, Boston and San Fran.

Some more notes for you:

Important Information for Brazil:
• It is currently extremely expensive to send packages to Brazil by courier services and packages sent this way attract up to 150% in import duty.
• We therefore use only the United States Postal Service to ship to Brazil.
• Packages sent via the United States Postal Service may attract import duty.
• Shipping time is four to eight weeks.
• Only the Post Office in Sao Paulo has confirmation of delivery service. SYDA Foundation cannot guarantee delivery of packages anywhere else in Brazil and will not take responsibility for packages which do not arrive.
