Cheap package shipping to Greece

Greece is located in southern Europe and is a gateway between 3 continents Europe, Africa and Asia. A hugely popular tourist destination, that in recent times has faced a severe economic crisis it remarkably still has a strong eCommerce presence. The Greek population currently stands at just over 11 million with 5.7 million of those using the internet and 3 million are regular online shoppers. Some of the challenges facing eCommerce in the region is trust in goods being shipped from overseas to Greece. The Parcel Monkey Global Shipping Marketplace is designed to help you overcome these hurdles and offer you the chance to connect with large reliable and efficient couriers, who service any region you wish to sell to. Cross border shipping is commonplace, especially in Europe with the ability to move goods relatively freely without any major customs hurdles to overcome.

If you need a solution to send parcels to Greece we can help you source a dependable courier, plus if shipping to Greece from outside of the EU, we provide any customs documentation for you to fill out. Greece has also become home to large groups of expats from all over the world and with such wonderful scenery, food and history it is understandable why. This also increases demand for parcels being sent to Greece and the various surrounding islands such as Crete, Santorini, Mykonos, and Rhodes. It is worth bearing in mind that a delivery time frame for goods going to a mainland location would be shorter, compared to a parcel bound for one of the Islands. The three main importers to Greece are China, Italy and Germany, as the Greek economy is not production based, it's highly reliant on imports of goods.The average online shopper spend per year in Greece is €1345 and Greece also ranks as having the fourth biggest eCommerce turnover in Southern Europe. Information technology-based goods were the most popular purchase, followed closely by home and garden goods and consumer electronics.

Customs Information

Import restrictions and guidance for sending to Greece can be obtained from local sources in Greece. Just as with other EU countries, there are rules regarding the adherence of Declaration of Conformity and Product Safety rules. You should take particular care when importing toys, electronic equipment, medical devices, radio and telecommunications equipment, measuring devices and other items. Furthermore, you will need to attach one original invoice and two copies with detailed descriptions of each item.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you offer door to door delivery?

    The Parcel Monkey marketplace uses a shipping calculator to find the best prices for shipping your items door to door via a range of different couriers. 

    With full tracking on almost all of our delivery services, you can follow your package from the moment it leaves you until it arrives with the recipient. We always advise providing the contact number of the recipient so that if needed, the courier can contact them to resolve any issues with the delivery.

    Some of our courier services are delivered to a local Post Office, where the recipient will need to collect the package from such as with DHL eCommerce to some remote areas so it is essential to provide a working contact number. Items shipped with Parcel Monkey are also done so DDU, so it might be that Customs need to collect payment from the recipient before delivery. We offer Customs Advice to help with the completion of any Customs Documents. 

    If you want to know more about what a courier is and how to choose the best service for your package, we can help.

  • Can I add protection cover to my order?

    When you place an order via the Parcel Monkey marketplace, during the booking process you can add protection cover to your item. As long as your item is not prohibited, has been packaged properly and you follow our Claims Procedure, you will be protected should your item be lost or damaged. 

    Some of our services offer no protection cover, but others do and some even offer free cover up to a certain value. You can view this information when you get a price via our shipping calculator. 

    Please ensure that the item is not on the prohibited items list as this will make it void.

    It is also vital to remember your package is going to be sent with global carriers, likely to be handled in various customs and airport departments so be sure to package the item correctly so it is well protected and cannot move around in the box.

  • How long will it take for my package to be delivered?

    Before you choose how to send your package, consider how quickly you need it to arrive. Transit times depend on two key factors- the shipping destination and the courier service you choose from the Parcel Monkey marketplace. 

    When choosing a courier from our marketplace, we will display an estimated delivery time, provided by the couriers themselves as they handle the goods.

    You can see how long it will take to arrive with the receiver and we advise that you share this tracking with the recipient so they can see when it is set to arrive. Always provide the recipient contact number when you book in case the delivery courier needs to contact them. 

    You can choose slower economy services such as DHL eCommerce if looking to save on the cost, or you can choose a speedy Express service that gets the package delivered more quickly like our 2-5 day International Drop Off service provided by FedEx, also available as a Pickup.
