Despite being bang in the middle of Europe, Switzerland is not a member of the EU, which means all parcels have to be cleared by Swiss customs before they can enter the country. Document shipments and gifts (see below) are the only exemptions to duties and taxes, all other packages will have these fees applied and the receiver will have to pay.
If the charges add up to less than 5 Swiss Francs however, the receiver will not have to pay anything.

Using parcel tape wrap around your box three times in a Union Flag pattern. Cover all corners and joins. Adhere your label so that it won’t come off and the barcode is clearly visible.
