Se envian los bienes = passive se
Se envia los bienes al país corespondiente = impersonal se (impersonal se is always always always 3rd person singular)

En este caso SE es un pronombre impersonal y la regla es que el verbo debe conjugarse en la tercera persona del singular.
Se vende dos perros.
Se hace lo que se puede.
Se envía los bienes ....

Not is wrong!! the correct is "se envian los bienes al país correspondiente"...The verb is "enviar" but is incorrect say "se enviar los bienes...."...Enviar los bienes al pais correspondiente"(is a orden) is correct,but "se enviar los bienes al país....." es incorrect....Is by the pronoun "se"..."Se envian" NOT "se enviar"......en fin ,lo correcto es decir: "se enviaN los bienes al país correspondiente"....

I do not think that it is wrong, merely that so many Spanish speakers get it wrong that the grammatically correct form no longer seems "right" to them, rather like English speakers thinking that "He ate more than we" or "It is I" are incorrect.
