Customs advice for shipping to the UK
Customs requirements
When shipping from the USA to the UK, you will be required to complete a customs declaration form which details the contents of your package, the intended use and the value. This will be taken care of during the Parcel Monkey booking process, so all you need to do is print the competed documents and attach them to your package.
Please ensure the information you provide is accurate as your parcel may be eligible for UK import tax and customs duties. Customs will use the information from your customs declaration form to calculate any fees due (as well as carrying out random checks). If you under-declare your item, your package will be delayed and you could incur additional charges.
Read our customs advice for more information.
