Packaging, Weight, and Volume

Parcels must be securely packaged, preferably in a cardboard box, with the name and address of both the sender and the recipient - must be written on 2 (two) sides of a parcel.

Meest UK does not cover damages to the contents of the parcels. Please notify our agents if you have any fragile items in the parcels and they will assist you in packaging them securely.

The maximum size of parcel: either side cannot exceed 1.05 m (41"), the weight of parcel may be less than 5 kg, but the cost of shipping is as for 5 kg.

The cost of your package can be affected by the amount of space that it occupies on an aircraft, rather than the actual weight.

To determine the cost of shipping, the greater of the actual weight or dimensional weight is utilized.

The following are formulas for the dimensional weight in lbs. and kg*

Dimensional Weight

* This formula only applies to AIR shipments

Dimensional Weight {lbs} = L (in) x W (in) x H (in) / 139
Dimensional Weight {kg} = L (cm) x W (cm) x H (cm) / 5000

* This formula only applies to AIR shipments

Parcel insurance

Each parcel is automatically insured depending on the selected service:

  • £50 inclusive Parcel Protection for Express shipments
  • £20 inclusive Parcel Protection for regular services

The maximum amount of additional insurance available is up to £800.

Additional insurance is charged at +5% of the declared value.

Is parcel insurance included when sending parcels to Belgium from UK?


Yes. Express shipments include £50 of parcel protection, while regular services include £20. Customers can purchase additional insurance for higher-value shipments, with coverage available up to £800 and charged as a percentage of the declared value.

How should I package a parcel for delivery to Belgium?


If you want to send package from UK to Belgium, use a strong cardboard box and secure all contents with appropriate protective materials. The sender’s and recipient’s names and addresses should be clearly displayed on two sides of the parcel. Fragile items should be packed carefully to reduce the risk of damage during transit.

Are there customs duties or value limits for parcels sent to Belgium?


Yes. Parcels with a declared value above applicable duty-free thresholds may be subject to customs duties and taxes, which are payable by the recipient. In accordance with EU regulations, shipments with a declared value exceeding €150 cannot be accepted for delivery.

How long does a parcel take to Bulgaria from UK?


Meest UK provides expedited air shipping to Bulgaria with estimated delivery times of up to 3 business days. The final transit time may vary depending on customs processing, collection arrangements, and the recipient's location. The estimated timeframe does not include first-mile transportation or customs clearance procedures.

What is the maximum parcel weight allowed for shipments to Bulgaria?


Parcels sent from the UK to Bulgaria can weigh up to 30 kg. The minimum chargeable weight is 5 kg, meaning that parcels weighing less than 5 kg are still charged at the minimum shipping rate.

For air shipments, no side of the parcel may exceed 1.05 metres (41 inches). Proper packaging is important to ensure safe transportation and compliance with carrier requirements. Oversized parcels may not be accepted for shipment.

How much to send a parcel to Belgium?


The shipping to Belgium cost is based on either the actual weight or the dimensional weight of the parcel, whichever is greater. For air delivery, dimensional weight is calculated using the parcel’s length, width, and height. Large but lightweight packages may therefore cost more than expected.
