Getting started…
Start exporting Internationally with our Click & Drop shipping solution. Click & Drop provides guidance for all mandatory customs data required and you can use it to obtain lower prices and keep track of shipping. It supports multiple store accounts and integrates with the most popular online stores and marketplaces too.
Setting up an account gives you access to all our international services and only takes a few minutes.
The EU has introduced the Import One Stop Shop (IOSS) for parcels up to €150 to help businesses trade throughout Europe.
With Royal Mail you’ll find a range of assisted IOSS solutions including tools that can help you calculate and collect tax and VAT from your customer at the checkout.
These allow you to pay tax and VAT directly to the EU and enables a seamless customs journey for your customers.
If you don’t register for IOSS or you’re sending items over €150 to the EU, (or items over duty or tax allowances to the rest of the world), you or your customers may have to pay customs charges before delivery. DDP is available through Royal Mail, to select destinations, and allows you to calculate and collect taxes, and, if applicable, customs duties from your customer at the checkout and pay it to the overseas tax authorities directly.
It’s a world full of opportunity for you and your business. So, however you decide to send items internationally, we’re here to help.
