All packages sent from the UK to countries outside of the European Union have to have a Customs Declaration attached describing the contents and their approximate value.

When my friend sends me a package from the USA she marks the Customs Declaration (green label) as a "Gift" and then I don't have to pay any taxes or custom duties when it arrives here in the UK.

Perhaps this method would work when sending from the UK to your country.
