Is the Polish Post reliable for international shipping?

Poland Post arranges express shipping and delivery to 170 countries through a collaboration with EMS, a courier service operating globally. It is not uncommon for national postal services to hand over shipments to EMS for last-mile delivery due to the extensive area they cover, as well as the competitive rates and fast transit times they offer by using only air transport.

Poczta Polska provides end-to-end tracking for almost all international parcels sent through their network. This increases customer satisfaction and trust in their services.

Given that Poland Post international shipping services are available to over 90% of the world’s population, it is fair to consider them a reliable solution. On the other hand, with Eurosender Priority Express Service, you can ship to over 220 countries and territories around the world, with tracking included and transit times of just 24-72h!
