@jaapv : I always travel with these documents (even when not going out of Europe).
If I was travellng with the gear back and forth, not the slightest problem.
Here, Fedex reply is : we don't do it if it's just one way.
UPS reply : we do it, but you still have a chance that the US customs tax your
gear upon arrival on Ellis Island, with the rest of the immigrant lenses.
I made it once, sending back a defective camera body to BH. But it was
a permanent return for an item I had bought and rejected.
