Courier service from Pakistan to UK

Who this route is for

This lane is used mostly by families sending clothes, food items and gifts to relatives; Pakistani brands selling to UK customers; students and professionals moving documents. You can drop parcels at our Lahore or Faisalabad branch, or book a pickup from your home or warehouse.

Transit times and how the rate is worked out

Times are typical working days, not guarantees. Customs inspections, public holidays and remote addresses can add time; we tell you if anything changes.

Your rate depends on four things: the chargeable weight (the higher of actual and volumetric weight), the service level, whether you choose duties paid, and whether you want insurance. Measure your box with the volumetric weight calculator before you ask for a quote and you will get an accurate number first time.

Documents, duties and DDP for UK

• The UK charges import VAT on most parcels. For goods sent to a business or private buyer, VAT is generally due on the value of the goods, and customs duty applies on many goods valued over £135.
• Genuine gifts between individuals worth £39 or less are normally free of duty and VAT. Gifts above that, and anything bought or sold, are taxed.
• With DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping, the duty and VAT are worked out and paid before delivery, so the receiver does not get a separate bill from the carrier. With DAP (Delivered At Place), the receiver pays any charges, often with a carrier handling fee on top.

What you need to send

• CNIC copy of the sender
• Commercial invoice or gift declaration listing each item, quantity and value
• Receiver's full UK address with postcode and phone number
• For business shipments, the receiver's EORI number if they import regularly

Restricted items for UK

Alongside our general prohibited items list, these need special care or cannot go to UK:

• Meat, dairy and products containing them (UK biosecurity rules are strict)
• Medicines without a prescription copy, and any controlled drugs
• Seeds, plants and soil
• Batteries shipped loose
• Counterfeit or replica branded goods
