Anyway after that diretso na ako sa DHL Megamall branch para ipadala na yun documents ko sa Industry and Inventment NSW. I doubled check and tripled check if complete yun documents ko, sinama ko na din yun payment and then I finalized na yun transaction with DHL. Bayad ko naman sa kanila is Php1,280. Sabi dun mare-receive nun pinadalhan ko yun documents ko within 3 days. Monitor ko na lang using tracking number.
