Send Parcels to Hungary from only £8.59

Did you know that Hungary is the UK’s 35th largest trading partner? Send a parcel to Hungary, and you’ll be one of millions contributing to the 1.6% increase in cross-country trade. Their commercial relationship was worth £8.7 billion in 2025, with £3.6 billion in UK exports to Hungary and £5.1 billion in imports from Hungary. Interestingly, a lot of that trade reflects the kinds of products people often need to move quickly.

Goods shipping to Hungary included medicinal and pharmaceutical products, cars, machinery and transport equipment. But people-to-people links matter just as much as trade.

Estimates put the number of UK expats resident in Hungary at around 11,000. In the other direction, the Hungarian community in the UK is large enough that the EU Settlement Scheme shows substantial volumes (181,490 grants of settled status). The increasing rates of postage to Hungary from the UK can also be attributed to e-commerce. Cross-border purchasing is a big part of how Hungarians shop online, and the logistics behind it are evolving fast.

In fact, an estimated 30–40% of imported online orders (including shipping from UK to Hungary) enter the country by air, as that’s how you achieve the shortest delivery times. All of these factors point towards the growing popularity of parcel delivery to Hungary. But the best courier option will vary depending on the weight and dimensions of your parcel, as well as what you’re sending.

How much does it cost to send a parcel from the UK to Hungary?

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I need to go through customs when shipping from Hungary to the UK?

All shipments of goods moving from an EU country like Hungary to Great Britain (England, Scotland, and Wales) are now classified as foreign consignments, meaning they’re subject to customs clearance procedures and controls at the UK border.

What items can I send to Hungary?

When shipping to Hungary, you can send most common consumer goods, clothing, books, electronics (excluding some batteries), household items, and non-perishable foods that do not contain meat or dairy.

But you cannot send items classified as dangerous goods, which include explosives, flammable liquids, poisons, firearms, illegal narcotics, or hazardous materials.

Restricted items that may require specific documentation or quantity limits include alcohol, tobacco, and certain live plants/seeds.
