Russia and Germany have developed economic ties. Freight from one country to another is regularly sent by both organizations and individuals. But in order to choose the most profitable way to send something to Germany, it is better to familiarize yourself with the different transportation options.
Necessary
- - address in Germany where the cargo is to arrive;
- - money to pay for transportation costs.
Instructions
Step 1
Submit your shipment by mail. For this, it should not be too large, since the maximum allowable weight of a parcel is twenty kilograms. Bring what you want to send to the post office. It is best to contact the central post office in your city, as its employees are likely to have more experience in sending international letters and parcels.
Step 2
Indicate the person or organization where you are sending the cargo, as well as the address of the apartment or office where it needs to be delivered. Pay the shipping cost - it will depend on the method of delivery, for example, by plane or train, and the weight of the parcel. For example, for a parcel without a declared value weighing one kilogram when sending to Germany, you will have to pay about 300 rubles. Please note that not all items are approved for international mail. A complete list of restrictions can be found on the Russian Post website -
Step 3
For urgent shipments, use international shipping services such as FedEx. Come to one of their offices and fill out an application for sending a parcel. If necessary, company employees will be able to pick up the cargo from your home or office. You can also track the progress of sending the parcel through the company's website using the code that will be given to you along with the receipt of payment for the parcel.
Step 4
When transporting large cargo to Germany, for example, for commercial purposes, contact the transport company involved in this type of transport. Its address can be found in the directory of organizations in your city. You can order the transportation of goods both by road and by rail. The last option is convenient in that it is possible to rent a container, and then fill it with things as needed.
