Feel free to read how the order is made:

Register all goods, gifts or items you are going to send. Although not all item lines appear on the address label, they will appear in the electronic customs information sent to the recipient country. The physical address label has limitations in relation to how large it can be.

1. Weigh the package when it is properly wrapped using a baking scale, bathroom scale or luggage scale. (For shipments to Svalbard – see which shipping method to use.)
2. Check that the measurements do not exceed the maximum size, see further down.
3. The next step is to fill in information about the sender, recipient and what the package contains (write this in English).
   1. Avoid return; write exactly what the content is in the customs document. Writing "Gift" does not hold.
   2. Information must be unique for each shipment/package.
      and remember that in some cases you must fill in and attach an additional customs invoice (proforma invoice), see below.
   3. Note: For enterprises in Sweden and Denmark, you must fill out this customs invoice in addition.
4. Pay for the shipping
5. Bring the package to one of our drop-off points and show the QR code on the receipt to an employee who prints an address label for you, or you can use the self-service printers.
6. Or print the documents at home – remember to sign the customs document.
7. Bring the print and package to Posten.
8. Request a plastic pocket for the documents. Attach the plastic pocket to the package with the address and barcode visible.
