I paid Royal Mail £14 postage but AN Post returned the parcel for not having the correct customs declaration

Three weeks later it was returned to me having failed An Post’s requirement for the correct CN22 customs declaration, but without further explanation. I trusted Royal Mail to understand the rules.
