    Just remember that the rules can change overnight, as we have seen. Better to stay within the 50 states.

    Actually, Belarus has no shipping services from USA to in that country currently...per USPS website.

    As an after thought...say you want to return it.

    Hidden cost from buying and I expect hidden cost from buyer returning it.

    Not to be picky...as we are not allowed to purchase from Russia...guess which country is very friendly with Russia....

    The safest thing truly is to check with US Customs and Border Protection for the current information. There at one time was a 35% tariff on Belarus, but then it was apparently suspended, but who knows if it's back. You also need to consider that in most cases tariffs are charged based on the item's country of origin, not where the package is mailed from.

    My advice buy within the United States.

    You may want to direct that question to US customs for accurate information.
