Customs between the Netherlands and Ukraine

The Netherlands and Ukraine are not in the same customs union, so a customs declaration travels with the parcel, marked as a gift with its value. We prepare it with your label.

How sending works

1

Join a round

Pick a theme you like and take one of the spots.

2

We draw the ring

When sign-up closes, everyone is put in one ring that crosses borders.

3

We buy your label

A tracked label, with the customs declaration where the route needs one. You get it in the app.

4

Send, then wait for the post

Drop the box where the label says. Someone else's is already on its way to you.

How it works

Before you send

Do I need a customs form to send a gift from the Netherlands to Ukraine?

Yes, a customs declaration travels with the parcel, marked as a gift with its value. We prepare it with your label, so there is nothing for you to fill in by hand.

How long does a parcel from the Netherlands to Ukraine take?

Typically 5–10 working days once the box is posted. Tracking shows where it is on the way.

What can't I send to Ukraine?

Food, liquids and batteries never go in a parcel, on any route. Ukraine also restricts: Alcoholic drinks, tobacco and e-cigarette liquids; Firearms, replicas and air guns; Narcotic and psychotropic substances.

How much does it cost?

Each round has one price, with tracked postage included. You see it on the round page before you join.
