Depends on what value your father in law declared for the item. And if it is high valued, you will have to pay 20% tax depite customs clearence process completed.

I dont know about UPS, but DHL will only release the shipment once they call you & collect the customs charges via phone or you have to pay the delivery driver or at the local sorting office.

Fedex delivers the item to you, then sends a letter by post saying you have to pay 'X' amount as customs charges.
Hope this helps.
