Send parcel to Bulgaria

Another major upside of shipping with us is free insurance coverage for every parcel for up €100. Even if you're sending the tiniest of items, it will get insured according to our standard policy.

We do understand however, that businesses are often sending items that are valued much higher than that. If that's the case for you, we strongly recommend purchasing additional insurance to make sure everything goes smoothly for you.

To make sure that your delivery gets carried out as intended, we also offer every customer the ability to track their parcel to Bulgaria. In order to do this, you simply need to enter your unique delivery ID which will be given to you upon purchase.

Important note:

We often get feedback from our customers that they don't receive an update on their package immediately after pick up.

As most of our partner companies use handheld devices to scan every incoming parcel, it usually takes a bit of time for the first updates to pop-up, especially when demand is high. Your first notices should appear within 24 hours.

In the unlikely case that you won't see anything at all after the first day, contact our support team immediately as there might be some issues with your parcel.

For business and personal shipments likewise, it's important to know the restrictions for the type of items Bulgaria allows for import. Like many other members of the European Union, the country has strict rules in place for that matter.

Before you place a quote for a parcel, make sure that the item doesn't violate Bulgarian laws as well the internal rules imposed by the courier company of your choice.

Below you'll find a few common item types that are forbidden and allowed.

Items you can't send

• Hazardous materials
• Flammable materials
• Guns and ammunition
• Infectious substances
• Waste damaging the environment
• Live animals

Among others.

Many senders also have questions about weight limitations for a single parcel. To put it simply, it ranges between 30 to 50 kg depending on what one of our partners allows.

For small personal deliveries, weight isn't usually that big of an issue, since large items are rarely sent here. However, if you're a business, it's likely that you will have to consider weight limits on the regular.

Just make sure that the item you're sending is not on the forbidden list.

If you feel like your item is too heavy, we suggest split your parcel into multiple parts. For instance, if you're sending something clocking in at just around 120 kg, you can split the parcel in two four pieces of 30 + 30 +30 +30 kg or three pieces of 50 + 50 + 20 kg.

This way, there won't be any issues with potential violations.

You might be asking yourself a question - Will I need to deal with customs duty or additional documents if I send my parcel to Bulgaria? Well, the answer depends on where you're sending your item from.

Below we discuss this.

For shipments coming from other EU member states

Since Bulgaria has been a member of the European Union from 2007, there is no additional customs duty required for shipments coming to the country. As long as your item isn't on the forbidden list, your parcel will only need a typical check up to go through.

For shipments from the UK to Bulgaria

The UK is no longer a member of the EU, which means that every parcel from the UK coming to Bulgaria is treated as being of foreign origin. This not only means additional customs duty for parcels to Bulgaria, but also documentation from UK and Bulgarian institutions.

As we mentioned before, we believe that the landscape of parcel shipping and in general of commerce itself is greatly changing due to a variety of reasons. This increase in the purchase of online goods creates a need for a reliable delivery like never before.

Naturally, this means that more and more companies rise up to meet this demand. However, we believe that not every courier has what's needed to ensure the best possible services for their clients.

A good delivery company, we think, should have these 3 traits:

• A team of experienced professionals willing to do anything it takes to ensure maximum customer satisfaction.
• Willingness to improve themselves and constantly expand their knowledge regarding the industry which is changing rapidly.
• Have a good working relationship with different partner companies in different countries.

Because of this, we believe we are one of the best choices for consumers looking for an all-around option in order to send a parcel to Bulgaria.

Speaking of partner companies, here are just a few of them that we work on the regular:

• DB Schenker
• Bartolini
• DHL
• UPS
• DPD

And many others.
