Customs
Before sending your parcel to Poland, please make sure that none of the items in your parcels contravene the restrictions imposed by customs at destination.
Customs website: http://www.archbip.mf.gov.pl/
Documents Needed
After you have paid for a shipping service to Poland, you will be redirected
to a page where you can download and print out the relevant shipping labels, i.e
AWB (Courier Air Waybills - barcode) - Proforma or Commercial invoice - Address label.
The above documents are standard for any international shipment.
Please note, if additional documentation is required for the import of any particular item, it is the
customer's responsibility to provide them at destination.
Restrictions
Goods travelling by 'Cargo' are subject to different restrictions to those travelling as carry-on
luggage.
A shipment to Poland is deemed unacceptable if: it is classified as
hazardous material, dangerous goods, prohibited or restricted articles by IATA (International Air
Transport Association), ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organisation) or other relevant organisation.
Many items which appear harmless in everyday use can pose danger on air transport and are consequently
forbidden for transport.
The following page displays a sampling of common prohibited and restricted goods.

Packing Advice
Your parcel must be boxed and well packaged. This will reduce the risk of damage to any item during
transit or any associated automated distribution process.
Please be aware the item is not taken by hand from collection to destination and will visit many sorted
facilities on its journey. For that reason, you need to protect the items to ensure they make it from A
to B safely.
The following packaging guidelines are recommendations to assist you in packaging your shipment:

When you book a shipping service to Poland, you will be able to choose an
appropriate level of cover for your shipment. We offer enhanced parcel protection for up to £2000
for a small additional fee.
If you do not purchase enhanced Shipment Protection, your shipment will be only covered to a maximum
value of £50 as per the limited liability set out in our
Terms & Conditions and subject to your
parcel passing minimum packaging requirements.
Please note that the declared value for customs purposes is not related to the declared value selected

damage.

Whilst a lot of what we excel at is down to our size, and the fact that we've been in this business for more than twenty years, we don't ever allow the scale of what we do to take away from our determination to provide those personal touches that mean the difference between a service that is just satisfactory and one that is superlative. If you're a corporate customer who has to organise Bydgoszcz shipping on a regular basis, we think you'll recognise this, especially when you are given the direct contact details of your very own customer support officer available if you need them to help you with your next package delivery to Bydgoszcz.
Bydgoszcz is a northern Polish city nestling on the banks of both the Brda and Vistula rivers, a location that has led to the city developing as a vital hub for shipping throughout Europe with links to the Elbe, the Rhine and Rotterdam. Within the city itself, the economy is driven by a focus on financial services, with 38 separate banks and 37 insurance companies having offices there, alongside the international institution JP Morgan Chase. Also notable in economic terms is the presence of the vast ‘Zachem' chemical works, a complex which is so large it has its own housing, internal communication and railway lines.
Carriers for both business and individual clients
Even though we're just as happy to deal with a Bydgoszcz package delivery for an individual on a one-off basis, our handling of our corporate clients' needs is what really helps us to stand out from the crowd. We know exactly what a business requires to make a delivery to Bydgoszcz a convenient, everyday experience, and we exploit the latest in technology and offer the best customer services to make sure we meet these requirements.
The best prices from the finest couriers
Our prices for a Bydgoszcz parcel delivery are kept low by our ability to negotiate the best deals on the market, and business customers can save more money by taking advantage of our special corporate rates, which mean that the more shipping to Bydgoszcz you do, the less each individual parcel costs. Having saved yourself some money, you'll be glad to hear that we haven't reduced our service to compensate. In fact we have developed a whole suite of services that make it even easier for you to use our service to delivery your packages wherever they need to go. For example, our website features a bulk upload facility which enables you to arrange multiple deliveries to multiple addresses at the same time, so that making a package delivery to Bydgoszcz, a parcel delivery to Szczecin and a package delivery to Gdansk isn't any more complicated than making a single delivery.
As a corporate customer you'll be provided with dedicated personal support. What this means is that you'll be given the direct number of a named member of our staff who will be available throughout the progress of your package delivery to Bydgoszcz to answer any questions you might have or to put your mind at rest if you have any concerns. That's yet another example of how we don't let our size and scale obscure the fact that it's frequently the personal touches that can make booking Bydgoszcz shipping a more enjoyable and convenient experience.
