Regarding the Nonsense Shipping Policy

< Previous | Home | Next >

Why does it take so much money when people ship their product or goods to this country?

They want to charge you an arm and a leg just to get your things out! It costs the person to buy their goods, then pay a shipping company to ship them down, including tax. Why do people get taxed twice?

I know why- because the system is corrupt and bribery is the name of the game. That needs to stop! The person in charge must have a better policy! Upon shipping, the company insures the person's goods, for a fee. The Haitian tax should be added to the insurance charge, which means whatever the insurance price is, that's the total.

Then when the container arrives in Haiti, you should be able to pick up your things and move on. That's the way it is in every civilized country!!!! Don't you want people to want to do business with your country?

Everyone you talk to about shipping things down to Haiti has this same story about exorbitant fees, bribes, etc. It's time to stop railroading the people who are bringing needed goods and food into the country.

It's ridiculous, after travelong so far with their belongings, and then the corrupt customs discourages them to even dare do it again! Please do something about this right away. I just read about it again in the Haiti News. It's happening in every port and the sad thing is, you don't see what they're doing with all the money they're taking from the people! None of the roads are being repaired, no water, no electricity Please put an end to this corruption!
