    I'm not certain I want to try posting lamps or stoves to USA presently until things are clearer. Our postal service has temporarily stopped posting most parcels to the USA. I think a few other countries have too.

    See our Australian postal guide at the following site.

    International post guide

    I know if its person to person and is a gift under $100 USD it should be OK but I worry about parcel seizure if it fits this following category.
    "If the sender’s information includes a business name or looks like a purchase it will not qualify as a gift."

    What are others doing?

    Here are the Danish/Nordic restrictions to the US.
    Temporary suspension of shipments with goods to the USA | PostNord

    If I use UPS from Denmark (a bit more administrative) Then there apparently are no restrictions other than “one should be aware that all shipments to the US are now subject to customs duties and taxes, as the de minimis threshold has been eliminated”
