Before you choose

Can I send luggage without flying?

Yes — you don’t need a flight of your own.

Yes. You can send luggage, boxes and personal effects without travelling yourself. However, depending on the destination country’s customs regulations, your shipment may not qualify for duty-free personal effects concessions if you are not travelling or your goods do not arrive within the required timeframe. In these circumstances, customs authorities may assess import duties, taxes and clearance charges, and your shipment may be treated as a standard commercial import.

Our team can advise you on the customs requirements for your destination before you ship, helping you avoid unexpected delays or charges wherever possible.
