Send a Parcel To Norway

norway

The strong relationship between the UK and Norway is steeped in history, dating back to the days when Norse Vikings were rather unwelcome visitors to British shores. The ties between the two nations are clearly far warmer these days. Not least as many British people have travelled back in the opposite direction! There are believed to be over 10,000 British people living and working in Norway, particularly in the country’s globally significant energy industries. Norway produces more oil and natural gas per-capita than anywhere in the world (except the Middle East).

It isn't just work that inspires people to live in Norway either. The country has a great standard of living and attractive health properties. These have combined to earn it the reputation of being “the most liveable place on earth”, based on a Human Development Index from the United Nations. Such are the ties between the two countries that parcels from the UK to Norway are a daily occurrence, in substantial numbers. Goods, gifts and other items are safely delivered by land or sea year round.

To ensure that this process is as smooth, prompt and cost effective as possible, Parcel Broker has established a strong working relationship with Norway’s most reliable and efficient couriers. This means we can be 100% sure that parcels from the UK to Norway are in safe hands, from door to door.

FAQ

Do I need to deal with customs when sending from the UK to Norway?

This is an interesting question, and ParcelBroker will update customers if the situation changes. Currently, there are no customs requirements between the UK and Norway. Though Norway is not a member of the EU, it enjoys the privilege of free movement of goods. When the situation is clearer with regards to Brexit, ParcelBroker will respond quickly.

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

This depends on how you want to tailor our service to suit your individual needs and deadlines. It starts from as little as £17.07.

Use our simple enquiry system to get the service you want at a price that suits.

How should I address my parcel for delivery to Norway?

The variations and regional quirks of addressing a parcel to Norway can be confusing.

Always make sure you take down the destination address carefully and reproduce it exactly as it appears.

Prohibited Items

What items can I send to Norway?

Most normal gifts and items can be added to a parcel between UK and Norway with no problems. It is recommended that you check with HM Revenue and Customs if you are sending anything out of the ordinary though.

Norway specifically forbids people from sending certain items into the country, such as:

  • Fireworks
  • Meat and dairy from outside Europe
  • Potatoes and any plants (or sections of plants)
  • Medical preparations and drugs

Beyond that, the usual rules apply about not posting explosive materials, weapons, knives or other potentially harmful items. There should be no live animals in parcels either.
