Can I mark my parcel as a gift to pay less duty?

You can mark your parcel as a gift at checkout, but it won't lower your duties. You still need to declare the true value of every item, and customs in the destination country decide what's due. A gift can still be charged duties.

Declaring a lower value to reduce duties is a false declaration, and customs can fine you or hold your parcel.
