Carriers in mentioned countries charge us with different types of surcharges, when the delivery of your parcels is carried out differently than through standard procedures. We would like to inform you, that we will transfer these surcharges starting from 1. 12. 2020. We are already invoicing some of these stated surcharges, but we have created a complete overview for better orientation, where you can find all current and new sums.

Therefore, the customer will only pay the value of the parcel when taking over the delivery.
