Did I just find the easiest way to get the LEGO Tuxedo Cat to Taiwan while everyone else waits for restocks?

Why I had to have the LEGO Tuxedo Cat

I was scrolling through the latest us trends when I first saw it: the LEGO Icons Tuxedo Cat (10345). As a cat lover living in Taiwan, I immediately checked my local toy stores. Unfortunately, the 2026 demand for adult-focused LEGO sets has left most shelves in Asia completely empty. I knew I couldn't wait for a local restock that might never come.

This set isn't just a toy; it is a piece of decor. I found the design so realistic that I was worried my actual cat might get jealous. My obsession grew as I realized the US stores had plenty of stock while we were left waiting. I decided it was time to take matters into my own hands and shop directly from the source.

Solving my decor dilemmas

I wanted a pet that didn't require a litter box, and this set fit the bill perfectly. You might also like to Read more: Will the LEGO Icons Tuxedo Cat finally solve your Taiwan home decor dilemmas without the hairballs? to see why this particular build is taking over Taiwan apartments.

My secret for finding US stock in 2026

I started my search at the LEGO US official store and Amazon. The price difference was surprising. Even with the current exchange rates, I found that buying directly from a shop us store often felt more reliable than dealing with third-party resellers in Taipei who mark up the price significantly.

I wondered if the price gap was worth it. After some research, I found a helpful breakdown. Check our guide on Read more: Taiwan Retail vs US Direct: Is the price gap for LEGO Icons Tuxedo Cat 10345 justifiable? to see the cost comparison I used for my decision.

The low-effort shipping method I used

I am someone who hates complicated paperwork. I didn't want to spend hours figuring out how to get a package from Oregon to my door in New Taipei City. My solution was to use comGateway as my freight forwarder. They provided me with a tax-free us address, which saved me from paying US sales tax at the checkout.

The process was much simpler than I expected. I followed a step-by-step guide on their site. Basically, I bought the cat, sent it to my new US address, and they handled the rest. This shop us ship international service made it feel like I was just ordering from a local website.

Shipping Estimates for Taiwan

To help you prepare your budget, I put together some estimates based on my experience. It is always a good idea to use the shipping calculator before you commit to a purchase.

I checked the international shipping rates and found that consolidating this cat with a few other small items like LEGO minifigures made the shipping fees even more affordable per item.

How I handled the Taiwan import process

I was worried about Taiwan's customs, but the "lazy method" worked here too. Since my LEGO set was valued under NT$2,000, I didn't have to worry about heavy duties. I made sure my EZ WAY app was updated and linked to my phone number. When the international shipping service alerted me that my cat had arrived in Taiwan, I just clicked "confirm" in the app.

If you have questions about how much you can import before hitting tax thresholds, I recommend checking the FAQ or the support section on the shipping site. They have a great help center that explains exactly what to expect for international shipping to Taiwan.

My package arrived in perfect condition. We often worry about the box getting crushed, but the extra padding provided by my freight forwarder kept the LEGO box mint. I am now happily building my new feline friend while my neighbors are still checking the local toy store's "out of stock" notices.
