When posting parcels to Europe, it is important to pack the item carefully. Depending on the size and weight of the item, senders may need to use a different types of packaging. For example, small items can be sent in an envelope, while larger items may need to be sent in a box. It is also important to include the correct documentation. 

Often, it’s necessary to include a customs declaration form, which can be obtained from a local post office. This form must be completed and attached to the outside of the parcel. Failure to do so could result in delays or even rejection of the parcel by Customs.

Moreover, it is important to make sure that the shipping label is placed on the box correctly. The shipping label should be placed on the side of the box that will be facing up when the parcel is placed on the conveyor belt at the post office. 

If the shipping label is not placed on the correct side of the box, it could get caught in the sorting machine and cause delays in delivery. Additionally, it’s essential to make sure that all of the information on the shipping label is legible and accurate. Incorrect information could also cause delays in delivery. 

With a little know-how, posting parcels in Europe is a simple and straightforward process, thanks to the various postal services available. To send a parcel, all the sender needs to do is simply take it to the courier service. They will be given a tracking number which can be used to track the progress of the parcel online. 

Once the parcel has been posted, it will typically take 3-5 working days to arrive at its destination, depending on the postal service selected. For an additional fee, senders can also choose to have a parcel delivered by express delivery, which guarantees delivery within 1-2 working days.
