Zonos and Česká pošta

Prepay U.S. duties and keep your Česká pošta shipments moving.

A new U.S. executive order now requires all postal shipments valued under $800 USD entering the U.S. to have duties prepaid before customs clearance.

To support this change, Česká pošta has partnered with Zonos to provide two compliant shipping solutions:

Zonos Prepay app 

For individuals and occasional shippers

The Zonos Prepay app allows you to calculate and pay U.S. duties before visiting the post office. It generates a QR code and Declaration ID that serves as proof of duty payment at the counter.

Key features:

  • AI-powered duty calculation using item photos
  • Pay in Czech crowns (CZK) with local payment methods
  • Generate Declaration IDs and QR codes for the counter
  • Gifts under 100 USD are exempt — no app required
  • Free to use — no account or monthly subscription fee

Verified Accounts 

For merchants and businesses who ship regularly

Verified Accounts automate Declaration ID generation and duty remittance, so your U.S.-bound shipments keep moving without manual intervention.

With a Verified Account:

  • Generate Declaration IDs via API or Google Sheets
  • Duties are calculated, invoiced, and remitted directly to CBP on your behalf
  • View invoices and shipment details in the Zonos Dashboard
  • No subscription fee — only pay duties and clearance fees per shipment
