Hi,
Actually all you need on the way bill is the value, what it is (camera) and
country of manufacture. You do not need to put that it is a German company.
I'd suggest you use Fedex as they will clear the customs for you and handle
any paperwork.
I just went through this as my wife's Christmas present to me was M6 .85 TTL
with a 35mm f2 Summicron purchased from Robert White of UK. It arrived this
morning <G>.

Hi,
I just purchased a mint Leica M4-p* from an Italian dealer, and I need
information from people who have purchased Leica equipment and had it
shipped from overseas.
(* Used, non-reflex 35mm photographic camera, model made in Canada
{German company}, value $1200)
I need to know if the following information is correct, so I can include
it in the way bill:
HTS number: 90065990 Photographic camera, other than fixed focus, valued
over $10 each, nesi--01/01/1999
Is this the right code for this camera? Is there any duty? The customs
website hasn't been very helpful.
Thanks in advance,
Robert
