How much does it cost to ship to France?

It depends on the weight, the dimensions, the service and the destination, since Corsica differs from Paris. Couriers charge on whichever is higher, the actual weight or the volumetric weight. Enter your parcel details and you'll see the final prices straight away.

How many days does delivery to France take?

It depends on the service and the destination. The comparison shows the estimated time for each option before you book. There's no customs for mainland France, but Corsica and public holidays make a difference. Delivery times are estimates, not guarantees.

Can the courier collect from my address?

Yes. The courier collects from your home, office or warehouse on the pickup day you choose when booking. All you need to do is have the parcel well packed.

How do I track my shipment?

You track it with the number you receive once your booking is complete. It shows every stage of the route up to delivery in France, and the recipient may get a text or email notification.

Which courier should I choose for France?

It depends on whether price or speed matters more. For France you'll see DHL, UPS and FedEx, each with a price and an estimated time. For documents that must reach an office in Paris by a deadline, go for the shortest estimate. For Corsica, compare the estimates carefully.

Are the prices I see final?

Yes, as long as weight and dimensions are declared correctly. For mainland France and Corsica there are no import duties, VAT or customs charges for the recipient. For Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana, Réunion and Mayotte, import duties, taxes or fees may apply, normally paid by the recipient.

Sending a parcel from Greece to France

Marseille was founded by Greeks from Phocaea. Cargèse in Corsica was founded by settlers from Mani, and the village's Greek church is still in use. Today Greeks live, work and study in France, and Greek businesses sell there every day. Sending a parcel to France means clothes and food for students, samples and goods for customers. And the other way round: spare parts and products from French suppliers.

On City Sender you see DHL, UPS and FedEx side by side, with the final price and estimated delivery time before you book. Corsica takes longer, and in August many businesses close for the holidays.

Mainland France and Corsica are in the EU, so your parcel travels without customs and with no import duties or VAT.

Useful information

Main cities: Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, Nice and Bordeaux. Corsica takes longer.
The postcode has 5 digits and goes before the city, e.g. 75008 Paris. Business addresses may also include CEDEX.
Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana, Réunion and Mayotte are outside the EU tax area. Monaco is a separate state.
Intra-EU shipment for mainland France and Corsica: no customs, no import duties or VAT.
1 May, 8 May, 14 July, 15 August and 11 November are public holidays. In August many businesses close.
