General Terms And Conditions

The postal services act contains several requirements we have to observe to ensure the safety of your parcels, please see our General Terms and Conditions for more details. What we would emphasize here is the importance of proper packaging. You should always use packaging materials and space fillers (crumpled-up newspaper sheets, flyers or Styrofoam packing peanuts for example) which can protect the content of the package from physical impact during shipping. Depending on what you are posting, a cardboard box, a thicker, lined envelope or a plastic bag makes a good shipping container. For fragile items you may want to consider opting for our fragile parcel handling service – you are still advised to package your shipment properly, and mark the package as “TÖRÉKENY” (“FRAGILE”) in a highly visible place and way.

  • sidearms and firearms, and parts thereof;
