Shipping to the UK from the USA is one of the busiest routes we handle. Every major carrier flies it, so there is plenty of capacity, frequent departures and a real choice between express and economy depending on how soon it needs to arrive.

We collect from any US address and deliver anywhere in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, with tracking from door to door.

Customs and paperwork

The UK is outside the EU customs union, so everything arriving from the US is an import and clears UK customs on arrival. In practice that means a customs declaration saying what is in the shipment and what it is worth.

HMRC charges import VAT, and duty where it applies, based on that declared value and the type of goods. Those charges are set by the UK government, not by us or the carrier. Our customs duty guide explains how the calculation generally works.

Personal effects and used household goods are treated differently from new retail goods, and people moving to the UK may qualify for relief on belongings they have owned and used. Tell us it is a relocation when you book and we will make sure the paperwork says so.

What people usually send

Mostly documents and small parcels: contracts, certificates, replacement parts, gifts. These go by express and are the simplest to clear.

Bigger shipments are usually people moving: boxes of clothes and books, personal effects, sometimes furniture. If you are relocating rather than sending a one off parcel, see our international relocation service.

Some things can’t be sent with any carrier. Check the prohibited items guide before you pack.

How to keep the cost down

You pay for chargeable weight: whichever is greater, the actual weight or the volumetric weight worked out from the box size. A big, light box is billed for the space it takes up, so repacking into a smaller carton often saves more than the new box costs. Our volumetric weight guide has a calculator.

Sending several small parcels together as one shipment is almost always cheaper than sending them separately. And if the timing is flexible, economy costs a lot less than express. See how our shipping rates work for the rest.

What it costs to ship to the United Kingdom

Price depends on chargeable weight, the exact destination and how fast you need it there. Rather than publish a table that goes out of date, we quote your actual shipment against current carrier pricing. It takes about a minute.

  • “I used TYS Global Logistics for moving my entire 2-bedroom house. I spent over a month comparing different moving companies because I wanted a good rate without compromising on the service. TYS offered me the cheapest rates, along with flexible timing as per my availability. Their team handled my belongings carefully, and I received proper tracking updates throughout the shipment. The delivery was delayed by one day, but they informed me about it in advance and explained the reason properly. Overall, it was a good experience. I would definitely consider using their service again.”
