Hi All,
Can anyone help me!
I'm sending a bear to the States, and was wondering, because the bear has steel shot in his feet/body, will there be a problem.
Weight of steel shot 3 1/4teaspoons.
I know I need a customs label, do I just declare it on that.
Thank you if anyone can help that would be great.
Love kayx.

Same here, I leave out the steel shot bit, but I list it as a toy teddy bear, jointed.  That way they'll know there's weird wire bits in there, but its supposed to be because its a teddy bear.
