Delivery to the UK

Which carriers deliver to the United Kingdom

Two carriers serve Great Britain - UPS and FedEx - and you can compare both side by side in a single calculator. We consolidate the shipments of dozens of eBay, Amazon and Etsy sellers, which earns us wholesale rates from the carriers, and we pass those savings straight on to you.

UPS

from 1 working day

UPS Express and Express Saver arrive within 1-2 working days with a guaranteed delivery time. UPS has no road service to the United Kingdom - everything travels by air, so your parcel never sits in a queue for the ferry.

FedEx

from 1 working day

Priority delivers in 1-3 working days, while the economy services take 4-6 days. A sensible choice when the deadline is not pressing and you would rather save on a bulky box.

YouSend

How to book a shipment

The whole process takes a few minutes and there is no need to go anywhere: the courier collects the parcel from the address you choose.

Check the price

The courier collects your parcel

Print the shipping label and stick it on the box. The courier comes to the address you choose — your home, your office or your warehouse.

Customs and paperwork

Since Brexit the United Kingdom has been outside the EU, so every parcel goes through customs. There is nothing to worry about: the customs invoice is generated automatically as you book online - all we need from you is an honest description of the contents, their value and the recipient details.

  • The customs invoice is created while you book online - there are no forms to fill in by hand.
  • Import duties and local VAT may be charged on arrival in the UK, and they are paid by the recipient.
  • Northern Ireland follows separate import rules - if the parcel is heading there, let a manager know in advance.

Customs is no reason to put off shipping to Great Britain: we prepare the documents online while you book, so the courier collects a parcel that is already good to go.

What you cannot send to the United Kingdom

The restrictions come from carrier rules and British law. Before you ship, check that nothing in the box is on the prohibited list - otherwise the parcel will be pulled from the flight.

  • Flammable liquids, gases and aerosols
  • Weapons, ammunition and their component parts
  • Narcotic and psychotropic substances
  • Meat and dairy products, and perishable food without specialist packaging
  • Lithium batteries sent separately from the device
  • Cash, jewellery and precious metals
The list is not exhaustive: each carrier has restrictions of its own, and UK import rules add further bans on top. If you are unsure about the contents, check with a manager before you book.

How to get your parcel ready for shipping

Good packaging protects the contents in transit and counts in your favour if a claim is ever reviewed. We have put together a detailed guide: choosing the box, protecting fragile items, the drop test and photographing what you pack.

Yes - the UK is outside the EU, so the parcel goes through customs. You will not have to fill anything in by hand, though: the customs invoice is generated while you book online. Import duties and British VAT may be charged on arrival, and they are paid by the recipient. Northern Ireland follows different rules, so let a manager know in advance.

Yes. A courier will come wherever suits you - home, office or warehouse. You give us the address and a convenient collection window when you book, and the parcel then travels door to door, straight into the hands of the recipient in the United Kingdom.

Choose a sturdy box sized to the contents, leave room for cushioning along the walls and tape every seam with overlapping strips. The journey through customs is longer than usual, so the packaging has to stand up to the extra handling. Step-by-step instructions with diagrams are in our packing guide.

Yes - you receive a tracking number as soon as the shipment is on its way. The status stays visible on our tracking page for the whole journey: from collection by the courier in Latvia to handover to the recipient in the UK, customs clearance included.
