Packing

The sender is responsible for ensuring that the contents of a parcel are packed securely. Multiple unloading/sorting tasks are often underway simultaneously, and consideration must be given to this when thinking about packaging. Packaging must be solid and of an appropriate size in relation to the item that is being sent. Fragile items must be surrounded by impact-absorbing material so as to absorb pressure and shocks and protect the contents.

Prohibited contents

Parcels may not contain valuables such as precious stones and precious metals such as gold, silver and platinum; money or securities as well as weapons, ammunition, live animals, waste materials, cigarettes and other tobacco products, and hazardous goods. The market value of the contents may not exceed 100,000.– kroner per parcel. The sender is responsible for ensuring that a parcel does not include anything which must not be imported into the receiving country in question. Check here what can be imported into each country.
