At ipostparcels we are proud of our budget-friendly prices for international postage. Take a look here for current costs. 

For any parcel heading outside of the EU, you’ll need to fill out a customs form. This tells the Customs Agents in the destination country about the contents of your package so they can process it correctly.

As with most posting to international destinations, when you send a parcel to the Philippinesfrom the UK, there are occasionally customs duties and import taxes that need to be paid. While you can’t pay these charges with us, when you book your delivery with ipostparcels, we will provide you with all the correct forms you need to help your parcel through Philippinescustoms.

Personal effects:- Should you be thinking about sending personal items to someone in the Philippines, note that personal effects are not automatically exempted from duties and taxes; exemptions are subject to Customs approval. A notarised affidavit from the owner attesting that the contents are purely for personal use only must accompany the items and a copy of the sender’s passport photo page also needs to be included to avoid delays in clearance.

HM Revenue & Customs has more information on tax and customs considerations for the Philippines.

There are many rules and regulations around sending a parcel to the Philippines, some of which are different from those you might expect or are used to sending to other countries.  We also advise you re-check the regulations each time you send a parcel as some countries change their regulations regularly – visit the Philippines Post website for more.

It’s down to you to make sure you’re not sending any prohibited or restricted items into the Philippines. Failure to do some may result in additional charges or even the destruction of your parcel. See the Bureau of Customs website.

Some examples of items you can’t post the Philippinesinclude:

Please be aware that we also have our own prohibited items list, in addition to country-specific restrictions.

We always recommend being vigilant when packaging your parcel – remember, your items will take quite a long journey and will pass through several depots with automated sorting machines on their way to the Philippines. Be sure to take extra effort to package your items well and use some internal cushioning material for your parcel. Take a look at our packaging advice here.

Ipostparcels can transport parcels up to 25kg in weight, 80x80x80cm max in size; we strongly recommend you use a sturdy outer box when sending your package and don’t overfill it, regardless of the dimensions of your parcel. If you’d like some further advice on packaging, take a look at our handy international packaging guide for tips to get everything there soundly.

Observing and complying with the restricted / prohibited items list and general customs regulations for the Philippines, there’s no reason to worry about your parcel when you send with us – it’s in safe hands!
