Sending A Parcel To EU Countries

If you are thinking about purchasing goods from Ballicom International and you are based in a country within Europe but are in need of some guidance, or if you are unsure of the new regulations regarding the shipments to EU member states following Brexit, we’re here to help.

Shipping From The UK To EU Countries Post-Brexit

As of 1st January 2021, parcels to Europe will be subject to customs and duty fees. This means that goods shipped from UK mainland to EU countries will have to clear customs and will require a commercial invoice and/or other export documentation.

The recipient will then have to pay customs or local VAT charges and a handling fee in the receiving country before they can claim the parcel. These charges will depend on the country they are sending to, the value of the item and whether it is a gift or commercial goods.

Ballicom will not be responsible for any of these additional costs under any circumstances and it will be entirely the recipient’s responsibility.

Which Countries Are Part Of The European Union?

Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Republic of Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, and Sweden.

Before Making A Purchase

If you are based in any of the above countries and you are being quoted by a Ballicom Sales Representative, they will always quote you accordingly and take into account certain EU shipping requirements and the destination of where the goods will be dispatched, therefore the price for shipping the goods out to you and the overall quotation in these instances will more than likely be higher than normal.

Please Note: As stated above, the additional charges are determined by a specific shipping criteria such as price of the item(s), type of product(s), weight and dimensions of the parcel and the destination of where the goods will be dispatched but the overall EU shipping prices are generated via the selected courier services’ (TNT) online booking system.

Delivery Lead Times

In most cases, orders placed before 1pm (business days) will be processed the same day. We strive to dispatch all stock orders to you within 3-4 business days, however we cannot absolutely guarantee this level of service at all times as delivery lead times will vary depending on where the goods are being dispatched in the EU. For a quick quote for your parcel delivery to EU member states or if you require further clarification on EU shipping or overseas shipping then please do get in touch and one of the Ballicom team will be able to assist further.
