Yes, you can send an offer (or gift) to the United States.
However, there are some rules and regulations that you need to be aware of.
It is important to know that all international shipments to the United States are subject to inspection by United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP). When you ship a gift to the US, it must be declared to CBP and may be subject to taxes or duties.
Also, there are restrictions on what types of items can be sent as gifts to the United States. For example, items such as firearms, tobacco products and certain agricultural products may not be permitted. Please note that certain goods may require special permits or licenses to be imported.
It is also important to note that gifts worth more than a certain amount (currently $100) may be subject to US gift tax. However, in 2021, the annual gift tax exclusion is $15,000 per recipient, which means that if your gift has less (declared) value than this amount, it likely won't be subject to gift tax.
