The Zonos app (formerly Zonos Prepay) allows you to prepay duties on international postal shipments. Snap a photo, AI auto-fills customs details (or enter your own), check for import compliance, pay in your currency, and get a QR code/Declaration ID for U.S. shipping. Easily calculate and prepay U.S. duties with the Zonos app. Just snap a picture of the items you’re shipping, and our AI fills in the customs details for you, including calculating duty cost. Review/edit the information, pay instantly in your own currency, and ship with confidence. Prefer to enter your item information manually? That’s supported too (no photo required).

How It Works: 1. Create a free account. 2. Select the post you are shipping with. 3. Click “Add items manually” to enter your item information yourself, or click “Take a picture” to take a photo and have the app auto-populate your item information. You can include all items in one photo, or take multiple photos. Note: Only include items that are shipping within the same box. If you are shipping multiple boxes, only enter and pay for one box at a time, so you get a Declaration ID for each box. 4.
