Shipping an item containing lithium battery overseas

[chrikelte0]

An international buyer purchased electric toothbrushes which contain lithium batteries but besides the normal hazard labels required do I have to do anything else? The shipping destination is a shipping warehouse in the U.S. before it is sent overseas so do I have to even worry about it or will the warehouse take care of it? Just don't want something to happen to the package.

If it's a US address, ship it ground and attach the hazard sticker.

Once it's reshipped, the shipper will take care of their part.

There are labels placed on the package...by hand...when I mailed items...from the post office or from the point of acceptance from the USPS.

You take a chance if they are not on the package...they are separate from a shipping label as such.

Ok awesome thank you - and to be clear the correct labeling is the UN3481 hazmat label? It would make sense since it is a new product with a battery packed into it.
