Sending a parcel abroad

Choose your delivery solution, calculate the price quickly, and send your parcel to an address outside Belgium. Includes Track & Trace.
In principle, bpost does not open letters. There are a number of reasons why we do open letters (read the General Terms and Conditions ): We cannot deliver the letter to the addressee and there is no return address on the envelope. We open the letter to identify the sender. That enables us to return the letter. My letter is damaged. What happened? It's possible that our sorting machines damaged the envelope. That happens occasionally to thick letters or letters with a special size. In that case, the sender should choose a reinforced envelope or a parcel.
How do I prepare my parcel for a foreign destination?
FAQResidential
Place your shipment in a strong box and fill the box with filler material like old newspapers. You can use your own box or a bpost box. Seal the box with tape. Make sure that there are no labels on the box from a previous shipment. Check whether the box falls within the permitted dimensions. The longest side may be maximum 1.5 m and all sides together may be maximum 3 m. Your parcel cannot weigh more than 30 kg. These preparations are the same if you want to send a parcel within Belgium, within the EU and outside the EU. The shipping costs differ.
You’ll get an email or a notification in the My bpost app stating the delivery date and location as soon as your registered mail is on its way. You still have time to change the time or place of delivery in the app. Your options: You can postpone delivery until the next working day. You can have the registered mail delivered straight to a Post Office or Post Point. Please note that you won’t be able to change this choice afterward. If you are not at home you can have someone else take receipt of your registered mail based on a proxy .
Can I phone the postman or follow his route online in order to receive my missed parcel?
FAQResidential
It's not possible to phone a postman or to follow his entire route online. If you set your delivery preferences, your parcel will be delivered according to your preference if you are not home. If you haven't set this yet, the postman will deliver your parcel to a Pick-up point in your neighbourhood. As soon as your parcel is available in a Pick-up point (the next workday), the status of your shipment is adjusted on Track & Trace and in the My bpost app. Be sure to check the status of your parcel before going to the Pick-up point.
