Shipping to the Czech Republic

I'm just about to ship something to the Czech Republic but this is new to me.

 

Shipsurance covers the Czech Republic so it can't be that risky.

 

Has anyone had  experience with that?

Thanks, yes.  My first reaction was "Oh **bleep**," but then I saw that shipsurance covers Czechoslovakia so it can't be high risk and posted here to double check.

There is no such country as Czechoslovakia. There is the Czech Republic and then there is Slovakia.

 

Any stamp guy would know that.

Hey Mr E. Well, yes you are quite right about whos called what today, I like to think of it as in the olden days before everyone split into pieces over there.....

Still I've never lost anything to either Czech Republic or Slovakia (although sales to Slovakia are very rare).

The only country I lose to is Mexico. I am something like 1:7 in deliveries.  I block them now.

Don't worry, you've got company (LOL).  I still catch myself calling that conglomeration of Balkan states "Yugoslavia", maybe because I was there once when it was still called that and have fond memories of the beauty of the Adriatic coast.   Then there are all those central African and south Asian states that keep shape-shifting and name-changing.  Who can keep up with it all?  Oh yes, Canada Post!   

 

I doubt that the Czech Republic is as problematic these days as Russia, for example.  The Czechs actually have a good postal system and relatively stable government (at the moment anyway).
