Here is all that you need to know about shipping from USA to Germany:

Step 1: Duties & Taxes

Like every country, Germany has a certain value beyond which duties and taxes are applicable on imports. If your consignment is worth more than 22 Euros, you are liable to pay taxes on it. Likewise, if its total worth adds up to more than 150 Euros, then you also have to pay duty charges on your shipment. Duties and Taxes are not included in the package forwarding/shipping fee charged by Global Shopaholics. Rather, you have to pay these tariffs to the customs department of your country in order to get your shipment cleared upon its arrival in Germany. Make sure to claim the accurate worth of your consignment on the attached documents to avoid any governmental complications. 

Step 2: Prohibited Items

There are restrictions on the import/export of certain items by different authorities. Some items are banned by the USA for export to any country, while some are banned from being imported by Germany’s government. Different courier companies may also not ship certain items, even if they are allowed by the countries’ authorities. Some items may also be subject to ‘conditional’ restrictions and may be permitted to be shipped under certain circumstances. Make sure to thoroughly go through the list of prohibited items of the country you are shipping to & from, and the courier service that you are shipping with, in order to avoid any inconveniences like a hold on your consignment or its return.

Step 3: Shipping Charges

The shipping charges depend on which country you are shipping to and the weight/size of your consignment. Global Shopaholics offers repackaging & consolidation facilities to minimize the weight/size of your package, thereby reducing the shipping charges. The cost also depends on which courier company you are opting for. Global Shopaholics lets you choose the shipping service of your choice from a variety of leading options, like DHL, FedEx, Aramex, UPS, USPS, etc. You even get exclusive discounts if you ship via our USA package forwarding

services. Make sure to compare the shipping charges of all the available courier options that we are offering and pick the most economical one for yourself!  

Step 4: Shipping Duration

This depends on how long the store that you have shopped from, takes to deliver your products to our USA shipping address.

As soon as we receive your items, we upload them to your online account within 24 hours. Global Shopaholics offers up to 180 days of free storage for your products at its warehouse so you can either choose to keep them stored, or proceed to shipping by making the payment and choosing your courier service. Once you have done that, we dispatch your package within the next few hours. The time taken for your package to reach you then depends on the shipping service that you choose. You can also pay a little extra for ‘express’ shipping option that ships faster.
