Send Parcels to Latvia from only £8.86

The total trade in goods and services between Latvia and the UK increased by 8% in 2025, including a 10.3% increase in total exports (totalling £57 million) and an 8.3% increase in shipping from the UK to Latvia. The relationship between the two countries has become stronger than most businesses realise! The sovereign country is one of the UK’s main trading partners in the Baltic region, with shipping to Latvia reaching £1.9 billion. But what is this growth driven by? A healthy exchange in domestic commodities (like those who send a parcel to Latvia from the UK for friends and family), and goods like machinery, electrical equipment, and vehicles. This is to be expected, especially when a strong economic connection is bolstered by personal ties.

There are between 117,000 and 124,000 Latvians living and working in the UK, according to estimates (and, with Latvia also home to an increasing number of UK citizens, it’s clear to see why there’s a steady demand for reliable parcel delivery to Latvia).

We’re also seeing the emerging maturation of Latvia’s e-commerce sector. Baltic consumers are particularly fond of British brands because they appreciate the quality of UK products.

With approximately 70% of the Latvian population now shopping online, demand for cross-border shipping is at an all-time high. But if you prioritise competitive pricing, finding the right courier service is essential.

Frequently Asked Questions

What items can I send to Latvia?

Most non-perishable personal and commercial items can be shipped from the UK to Latvia. This includes clothing, books, toys, documents, and electronics, as long as any lithium batteries are contained within the device and not sent separately.

Since the UK left the EU, stringent phytosanitary regulations are now in place. We advise shippers to refrain from sending food products, particularly meat, dairy, and perishable items, as they are prone to seizure by customs.

Will I have to handle customs when shipping from the UK to Latvia?

Yes, when you send a parcel to Latvia, all goods must clear customs. You must attach a commercial or pro forma invoice to your shipment that declares the contents, their value, and the reason for export, although we simplify this by automatically generating the paperwork for you to print at home.

Please be aware that your recipient will likely need to pay Latvian import VAT (currently 21%) and, if the shipment's value exceeds €150, customs duty before the courier can release the parcel.

How should I address my parcel for delivery to Latvia?

For the most reliable parcel delivery to Latvia, write your address clearly in the following format:

Recipient Name (JĀNIS BĒRZIŅŠ)
Street Name and House/Building Number (BRĪVĪBAS IELA 15)
City/Town Name followed by the Postal Code: four-digit number preceded by 'LV-' (RĪGA, LV-1010)
Country Name (LATVIA)
