Why wasn't my parcel delivered to a neighbour?
FAQResidential
There can be several reasons why your parcel was not delivered to a neighbour: The postman could not deliver your parcel to a neighbour because he was not at home or did not accept it. Your parcel is a shipment with payment upon delivery. Your parcel is a secure delivery, so you need to show your secure delivery code. Your parcel is a registered mail. Your chosen neighbour (under My Delivery Preferences) lives more than 50 m walking distance from your home. The parcel was ordered with an email address that (still) is not linked to your delivery preferences. That's why we were not able to apply your delivery preference. Take into account that the validation of a new account or new address via MyPreferences takes 10 days. If you do not think that the above mentioned reasons are the cause, you can report this via the online form .
Occasionally the people at the Pick-up point won’t have had the chance to process your parcel, so they won’t be able to find it for you or hand it over immediately. To make sure the parcel is ready for you, check the My bpost app or Track & Trace before you go to the Pick-up point. If your parcel should be available at the Pick-up point according to Track & Trace, but it isn’t, ask for more information via the chatbot, in Track & Trace or in the My bpost app. This should be the quickest way to get an update on the status and the whereabouts of your parcel. If not, as a last resort you can fill out the online form at the bottom of this page to start an investigation. To start a chat, simply enter the barcode number and postcode of your parcel in Track & Trace.
If your parcel gets lost or is damaged, then the compensation depends on the chosen option: Light parcels (up to 2 kg) without option 'declared value': no compensation Light parcels (up to 2 kg) with option 'declared value': you are compensated in accordance with the amount of the declared value. Parcels up to 30 kg: you receive compensation for the actual damage. That compensation is maximum 40 SDR per parcel. SDR stands for special drawing rights, a unit for international exchanges. 1 SDR = 1.2454 eur. Added to that amount are postage fees and 4.5 SDR per kg. If you would like to apply for a compensation, it is best to contact our customer service via the online form at the bottom of this page. This way, you can immediately provide all the necessary information and documents to process your file. In case of damage, the complaint must be submitted within 7 calendar days.
I have already paid VAT through the webshop. Now I have to pay again. How is that possible?
FAQResidential
In exceptional cases, you may have to pay VAT and import costs a second time on your shipment. This is because the IOSS webshop on which you ordered or the local postal company of the sender did not (correctly) register this information. An IOSS shop is required to forward its IOSS number digitally. Customs uses this number to read out the necessary information about your shipment automatically. If this number is not transmitted or valid, the bpost customs clearance service is obliged to charge the recipient for VAT and customs formalities. (It is not enough to note the IOSS number on the package or to communicate it afterwards.) If you are charged import costs and VAT a second time, then: You can refuse the shipment in the My bpost app or Track & Trace and request a full refund from the sender. You can pay the import costs and reclaim the VAT from the sender who wrongfully charged it. To do this, contact the sender and present your proof of payment from the My bpost app or Track & Trace.
