Delivery considerations for courier services to Switzerland
Things to remember when booking courier services to Switzerland:
- Postal codes – Switzerland uses four-digit postcodes, sorted by geographical location. The country is divided into nine postal districts, numbered from west to east. Some special cases: the Italian territory of Campione has the postal code 6911 for mail passing through Swiss post; also located in Italy, the Swiss Post office in Domodossola has the code CH-3907; the German town of Büsingen am Hochrhein has been attributed the postal code CH-8238 for mail arriving directly from or passing through Switzerland.
- Checking the integrity of the shipment, as soon as the goods arrive in Switzerland – Otherwise, it might be hard to claim for damages. Damaged shipments when booking service through Eurosender are extremely rare but it is important to take precautionary measures.
Tips to ensure a successful delivery:
- Have someone at the address in the given time frame;
- Make sure you are reachable in case the courier decides to call;
- After 1-2 unsuccessful deliveries, the shipment will be stored at the local depot. The recipient will then need to visit the depot within 7 days.
Clearing customs in Switzerland
When sending a package to Switzerland, it is mandatory to complete the Customs declaration, even when shipping from within the European Union. As a rule, every consignment from abroad is liable to customs duty and VAT. As the recipient of a consignment from abroad, you pay the necessary VAT on the value of the goods and customs duty on the gross weight.
