How long does it take to receive my orders??
Transit times vary by service level, route and destination, but as a general guide:
- Warehouse processing & consolidation: about 1-2 working days after your packages arrive
- International shipping:
- Express: usually around 3-7 working days
- Standard / economy: usually 7-14 working days or more, depending on route
Delivery times can be affected by customs clearance, peak shopping periods, and local courier schedules. For planning around peak seasons and big sale events, see the articles in Guides for Global Shipping.
Do I have to pay customs duties and taxes on international orders?
Yes. Your order is still subject to local customs rules in your destination country. In general:
- Each country applies its own duty rates, VAT/GST, and thresholds
- Rules can vary by product category and HS code
Boxit4me provides commercial invoices and documentation, but your local customs authority decides final duties and taxes. For more detailed country-by-country information, check your destination in the Country Guide.
What can I buy and ship with Boxit4me?
Popular categories shipped from global websites with Boxit4me include:

- Home, kitchen and décor products
- Toys, games and baby items
- Health and beauty products (non-restricted)
- Fashion: clothing, shoes, bags and accessories
- Pet supplies
- Sports, hobby and outdoor equipment
As long as the items are allowed by airline regulations and your local customs rules, Boxit4me can generally ship them. When unsure, check the import guidelines in your specific Country Guide page and the prohibited items sections within each country's details.
You can shop from Walmart, Amazon, eBay, Target, Etsy, BestBuy and more and ship with Boxit4me to you your local address.

- Perishable or temperature-sensitive goods (fresh or frozen food, some pharmaceuticals, etc.)
- Weapons, ammunition and certain self-defense items

Can Boxit4me combine my orders from different websites??
Absolutely. One of Boxit4me's biggest strengths is multi-store consolidation:
- Shop from multiple US, UK, European and Chinese websites
- Send everything to your Boxit4me locker
- Combine all your packages into one or a few shipments
This can significantly reduce your per-kilo cost and make tracking and delivery much easier. For more strategies to optimize consolidation and routing, explore Shop Abroad, Ship Local and the Global Shipping Resources.
What if a website doesn’t accept my payment method?

- Boxit4me purchases the items from the website on your behalf
- The items are delivered to your Boxit4me warehouse address and appear in your locker
- You pay Boxit4me for the product cost plus any applicable service fee
Look for details on assisted purchase under Services & Benefits or in the FAQs.

FAQs about International Shipping Solution
Yes. You can shop global websites' Black Friday, Cyber Monday, back-to-school and other seasonal sales using your Boxit4me US, UK, European or Chinese address. The website ships your discounted items to your Boxit4me locker, and you then consolidate and ship everything to UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, India and other supported destinations through our international forwarding service.
If the website offers Cash on Delivery, you generally cannot use COD directly with a Boxit4me address because our warehouses cannot pay the courier at the door. Instead, place prepaid orders with your own card or use Boxit4me’s Assisted Purchase / Buy4me option when available, so Boxit4me pays the webiste and receives your order on your behalf.
Your total shipping cost has two main parts:
- Any domestic shipping charges to deliver your order to your Boxit4me address.
- Boxit4me’s international shipping fee, usually based on actual or volumetric weight, charged per 100 grams with no hidden handling fees.
Because you can consolidate multiple websites' parcels into one box, you often pay less per kilo than sending each package separately. Use the Boxit4me shipping calculator to estimate costs before you buy.
Yes. First, you can track your shipment until it reaches your Boxit4me warehouse address. Once Boxit4me receives it, the package appears in your locker with photos and status updates. After you create a shipment, you’ll receive international tracking that follows your parcel from the Boxit4me warehouse to your final delivery address.
Boxit4me can handle most standard parcels, including multi-item consolidated boxes. However, very heavy, oversized or freight-type shipments may be subject to courier limits, extra fees or special handling rules depending on the route and service (economy, standard or express). If you plan to ship large furniture, fitness equipment or bulky items, contact Boxit4me support with product details before you buy to confirm feasibility and pricing.
No. Perishable, temperature-sensitive or refrigerated products (fresh food, frozen items, certain pharmaceuticals and similar products) are not suitable for long-distance international shipping and are generally restricted or prohibited. For best results, focus your shopping on non-perishable categories such as electronics, home, toys, baby, fashion and similar items.
To estimate your final cost:
- Check the product price and any domestic shipping to your Boxit4me address.
- Use Boxit4me’s shipping calculator to estimate international shipping based on weight and destination.
- Review your destination country’s customs rules (via Boxit4me’s Country Guide) to anticipate duties and taxes.
- Consider consolidating multiple orders into one shipment to reduce cost per kilo.
This gives you a close estimate of what you’ll pay from checkout to delivery.
