Package forwarding to Ireland
Since Brexit, several UK shops have stopped serving Ireland: Argos left in June 2023 and Halfords has no home delivery in the Republic. And the same Zara jeans cost €29.95 on the Spanish site but €35.95 on the Irish one — same currency, and Spain to Ireland is intra-EU.
What changed for Irish shoppers since Brexit
Brexit shrank the UK shops that serve Ireland
Argos closed in the Republic of Ireland in June 2023, Halfords has no home delivery there and John Lewis offers no international delivery. With our UK address you check out as a British customer and we forward the box to Ireland.
The €150 duty relief ended on 1 July 2026
Customs duty can now apply from the first euro on parcels from outside the EU, on top of 23% VAT. It pays to know what is UK-made — and to buy inside the EU when the same item is sold there for less.
Amazon.co.uk ships to Ireland — with gaps
Light bulbs, medicines and baby milk are excluded, and aerosols, many beauty items and some batteries are limited. With a UK address the order is delivered in Britain; whether we can forward it depends on the item and Irish import rules.

What a parcel into Ireland pays after 1 July 2026
Since 1 July 2026 the EU no longer has a €150 customs-duty relief for low-value parcels (Council Regulation (EU) 2026/382). Customs duty can now apply from the first euro — in some cases as a flat €3 per item type, otherwise at the normal tariff rate.
Import VAT has been due from the first euro since July 2021; in Ireland the standard rate is 23%. IOSS, where the shop collects VAT at checkout, only covers orders up to €150. Gifts between private individuals stay duty-free up to €45, under conditions.
A new EU handling fee from 1 November 2026 may also apply; its scope is still being clarified. Goods bought in another EU country and shipped from our warehouses in Spain, Italy, France, Germany or the Czech Republic are intra-EU: no customs at all.
From the UK, origin matters: UK-made goods can enter duty-free under the EU–UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement with an origin statement, while goods made elsewhere and shipped from Britain commonly pay duty. When duties are not prepaid, An Post commonly charges a €6.95 customs admin fee — confirm the current terms.
| Item | Rule (2026) |
|---|---|
| €150 duty relief | Abolished on 1 July 2026 |
| Customs duty | Can apply from the first euro: a flat €3 per item type in some cases, otherwise the normal tariff |
| Import VAT | From the first euro; standard rate 23% |
| IOSS (VAT at checkout) | Only for orders up to €150 |
| Gifts between individuals | Duty-free up to €45 (conditions apply) |
| EU handling fee | A new fee from 1 November 2026 may apply |
| Bought inside the EU | Intra-EU shipment: no customs |
| UK-made goods | Can be duty-free under the EU–UK TCA with an origin statement (confirm) |
| Non-UK-made goods shipped from the UK | Commonly pay duty (confirm) |
| An Post admin fee | €6.95 commonly charged when duties are not prepaid (confirm) |
Customs information updated November 2026. We generally ship DAP: duties, taxes and customs formalities at destination are handled by the recipient. Always check with your country's customs authority. Informational only — not legal, customs or tax advice. Rules change, and treatment depends on the item's classification and origin. Check with Revenue before ordering. Source: Revenue — removal of the €150 de minimis, FAQ (2 July 2026).
Shops worth forwarding from when you live in Ireland (2026)
Brexit turned Britain into a non-EU country for Irish shoppers, and several big UK retailers pulled back. With our UK address you check out as a local customer; with our Spanish address you can buy on Spanish sites, and Spain to Ireland is intra-EU.
Prices differ too: the same Zara reference costs €29.95 in Spain and €35.95 in Ireland, both in euros, no conversion. Gaps like that are not on every item — compare before you order.
| Shop | From | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Argos | UK | Delivers only to UK addresses; closed in the Republic of Ireland in June 2023. |
| Halfords | UK | UK addresses only; its Irish site says there is no home delivery in the Republic of Ireland. |
| John Lewis | UK | States that it does not offer international delivery. |
| Amazon.co.uk | UK | Delivers to Ireland, but excludes light bulbs, medicines and baby milk, and limits aerosols, many beauty items and some batteries. |
| Vinted UK | UK | UK members trade internationally only with the US and Australia. |
| Zara (Spanish site) | Spain | Same Z1975 jeans: €29.95 on the Spanish site vs €35.95 on the Irish one. Buy on the Spanish site with a Spanish address; Spain to Ireland is intra-EU. |
| Walmart.com | USA | Ships abroad only to Canada and Mexico for now. |

Thousands of global shoppers trust Resendify
From fashion to car parts, from luxury to electronics — global shoppers use Resendify to buy from Europe without limits.
“Finally a service that actually works for buying from Spanish stores. I ordered from Zara España, MANGO and El Corte Inglés in the same week — everything arrived consolidated in one box. Shipping to LA was way cheaper than I expected.”
“I bought a MediaMarkt laptop that wasn't available in Canada at that price. The process was seamless — got my European address, placed the order, and Resendify handled everything from there. Will definitely use again.”
“Been sourcing European car parts for years. Resendify is the best forwarding service I've used for Europe-to-India shipments. The consolidation feature saved me hundreds on a single order.”
“Bought from a French boutique that doesn't ship to Australia. Got my Resendify address in minutes, placed the order, and it was on my doorstep in Sydney two weeks later. Exactly as advertised.”
“I source from 4–5 European suppliers every month. Resendify consolidates everything before it hits the US, which cuts my per-unit shipping cost significantly. The quote tool is accurate and the team is responsive.”
“Found a Zalando deal that was EU-only. Used Resendify, got the item shipped to Dubai without any issues. The customs documentation was all handled — that's the part I usually dread.”
Forwarding packages to Ireland
No. Since 1 July 2026 the EU removed the €150 duty relief. Customs duty can apply from the first euro — in some cases as a flat €3 per item type, otherwise at the normal rate — and 23% VAT applies from the first euro too. A new EU handling fee from 1 November 2026 may also apply.
Argos delivers only to UK addresses and closed in the Republic of Ireland in June 2023. Halfords' Irish site says there is no home delivery in the Republic. With a UK receiving address you check out as a UK customer and we forward the parcel to Ireland.
It depends on origin. UK-made goods can enter duty-free under the EU–UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement with an origin statement; goods made elsewhere and shipped from Britain commonly pay duty. VAT applies either way. Check Revenue's guidance for your item.
Sometimes. In November 2026 we read the same Zara jeans at €29.95 on the Spanish site and €35.95 on the Irish one. Spain to Ireland is intra-EU, so there are no customs. Gaps vary by item — compare before ordering.
