hi,
We have so far received 15 countries' requests. Please note: these (paper) Moleskine notebooks might make nice prizes if you have a hard time finding prizes in your country! I know quite a few countries are struggling with budgets and prizes, so please consider this. There are zero costs attached for your local team if you order less than 20.
Do it quickly though, because sending them via mail takes... time.

Hi,
three quick notes about this: * the shipment will be done by Wikimedia Italia office (but, as said above, the cost will be covered by the international team) * if you can provide the telephone number, please do so * the courrier (TNT) can not ship to post office boxes.
Thank you.

I forward this question (and the answer) from Ukraine, since it may be of interest to everybody.
Is it for free? Can our country (Ukraine) apply for it?
yes, the agendas have been donated to us by Lettera27 Foundation and the shipping cost will be covered by the international team. All local teams can apply.

Hi all,
It seems that some countries may require to pay custom duties and will hold the shipment until regulated. Note that we are marking the shipments as "gift" (since they *are* gifts).
If you are contacted by the shipper about this please say to them that these cost have to be invoced to Wikimedia Italia (the sender). Here's the full address of Wikimedia Italia for you convenience:
Wikimedia Italia - Associazione per la diffusione della conoscenza libera via Roberto Ardigò, 24 20900 – Monza (MB) VAT CODE: 05599740965 FISCAL CODE: 94039910156
We did not expect this problem, but so far it showed up only for one country out of 15.
The international team will cover these cost as for the rest of the shipment costs.
