There are some goods that can’t be sent in the post, and others that can be sent but with clear restrictions.
Some countries have their own rules on what they will and won’t allow to be sent by post. It's important to check the item you’re sending is allowed in the destination country so that we’ll pay compensation in the event of loss or damage.
Some countries and international organisations impose restrictions on what you can send to certain individuals, organisations and countries. Check these restrictions before you send.
