Customs is simple when sending with Evri
Some carriers ask you to print out a customs form and attach it to your parcel. Not with Evri. When you buy a parcel online, we automatically take all the information we need during checkout, making it even easier for you.
When you send an international parcel, you’ll need a tariff code which is used by customs to identify different types of item. This helps speed up the clearance process, so your parcel gets to its destination quicker.
Book your parcel online and we’ll give you a list of product categories to select from, such as clothes, arts and crafts, books and vehicle parts. Simply click through, and we’ll add the correct code to your order. Alternatively, you can browse all the codes to find the one that closely matches what you’re sending.
Be careful to fill in all the information correctly to make sure your parcel arrives at its destination as quickly as possible. If the information you provide is incorrect, it could result in your parcel being held at customs, with delays and charges outside of our control.
Who pays customs duties and taxes?
Customs charges depend on the destination, purpose, contents, and value of your parcel.
As the sender, the price you pay will cover the delivery service of the parcel.
If customs charges are applicable, Evri or the relevant authorities will contact your recipient. If you have sold items to Ireland & France, and taxes and duties apply, you will be given the option to pay the charges on your recipient's behalf when purchasing your parcel delivery.
If the parcel is an item you’ve sold through an IOSS-registered marketplace (Amazon, eBay, Etsy & Not On The High Street) or you are a business with an IOSS number, VAT charges are handled at the point of sale. This means there won’t be any extra costs for your customer when they receive their goods. The parcel will need to be destined to an EU country and be up to the value of €150 for IOSS numbers to apply.

Business or marketplace seller? Why not try IOSS
If you’re an online seller sending goods up to the value of €150 and to a destination within the EU, you might want to use Import One Stop Shop (IOSS), which makes it easier for UK businesses and marketplace sellers to comply with the latest EU VAT rules.
IOSS deals with VAT charges at the point of sale. So, as well as making life simpler for you, it also benefits your recipient - there’ll be no surprise costs for your customer when they receive their goods. IOSS also speeds up customs, which means your items can be delivered faster.
If you’ve sold via a marketplace, simply select it when booking your parcels, and the IOSS number will populate automatically. You don’t need to do anything else! You can also enter the number for a marketplace not listed or, if you have your own IOSS number, simply select ‘other’.

What you can and cannot send overseas
While our couriers can deliver a huge range of items abroad, there are some limitations on what they can carry. It’s important for you to consider these restrictions before you try to send your international parcel on its way to ensure a smooth customs clearance.
Check out our comprehensive guide on what you can and can't send internationally. Make sure you follow the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations and the UK Civil Aviation Authority guides to keep up to date with the latest air travel restrictions.
Each destination also has its own set of rules and restrictions. For example, you can't send documents outside the EU or mobile phones to residential addresses in Pakistan. Check out our country guides below to find out more specific information on what your destination requires.
