Additional courier fees

The main goal of Sendparcel is to offer the best shipping offers and ensure a smooth delivery service process. For this reason, we always emphasize the importance of providing accurate shipment dimensions and weight when placing an order, properly packing the shipment, and carefully filling out the order form.

Just a few steps and you will be assured that your shipment will reach the recipient anywhere in the world quickly and smoothly.

We offer a wide selection of international couriers, so in the table below we provide detailed information about the surcharges which can be applied to your shipment by the courier, only if the shipment information you have provided when placing an order is inaccurate.

How to ensure that the initial price of the service will not change?
Here are few very important tips which can help you avoid surcharges for your shipment:
- Properly pack the shipment.
- Check the maximum dimensions of the shipment.
- If you are shipping outside the EU, do not forget to evaluate the customs formalities.

In the rare event when the courier applies additional charges to your shipment, we try to inform our customers as soon as possible. However, we only receive this information after the courier has submitted periodic invoices. Only then does such a message reach customers' email inbox. To avoid situations like this, ensure to carefully and accurately fill out the shipping documents.
