What are the shipping costs for my package?

Carrier fee
This is the price of shipping your parcel from A to B. It depends, of course, on what you're sending, where it's going and how quickly you want it to arrive. Shipping carriers will often take care of the other charges listed here too. In which case, they'll add them to the carrier fee.

Duties and taxes
When an international parcel enters a country or economic zone, the customs authorities might charge duty and tax on it, depending on the type of goods. Most of the time the receiver is responsible for paying, usually through the carrier or customs broker.

Broker fees
Customs brokers, often provided by your carrier, help goods to get through customs. If they pay duties and taxes on your behalf, or if your parcel needs non-standard processing at customs, then they’ll charge a broker fee.

Handling fees
If you're sending dangerous goods, a parcel that needs extra assistance to clear customs, or anything else outside of standard shipping and handling, then it may have handling fees, also known as surcharges or additional carrier costs. 

Dimensional weight charge
When a parcel’s dimensional weight is higher than its actual weight, so it takes up more space, then this charge may apply.

Insurance
If your shipment gets lost or damaged in transit then insurance can cover it. You can buy insurance when you book a shipment, or arrange it separately.
