Parcel Delivery to Germany

Exporting to Germany

For parcel deliveries from the UK to Germany, we recommend Asendia and Landmark Global for lighter parcels, or DPD Classic and TG Euro Parcel for parcels up to 30kg.

Collection from your door is available for all these services, but for some of them you can also drop off at our depot at a reduced price. Additional savings are also possible if you're sending multiple parcels.

These prices exclude VAT. We also offer air freight services to Germany.

Transit times to Germany

Germany is just a hop and a skip from the UK over on the European continent, but transit times will vary depending on the service you choose and the destination of your parcel.

Express services normally take just 1-2 days. Economy delivery takes 3-7 days depending on the service.

You can get a more accurate estimate using our service-specific transit time calculators.

Customs information for Germany

Since Germany is a member of the European Union, customs clearance is not required for parcels. However, VAT is applicable on all exports to Germany.

Even though the UK has left the EU, during the implementation period from 1st February - 31st December 2020, this will not change.

For further customs information, including specific details of prohibited and restricted items, please visit the German customs website.

Sending a parcel from Germany?

Send from Germany to over 20 European countries with our intra-European DPD services, which includes domestic delivery within Germany itself. All you need to do is put Germany as your "Sending from" address.
