How to pay a customs charge

How can I pay a customs charge?

You can pay customs charges online, by phone on 03448 004466, or at one of our depots. You will need your 17 digit reference number, which can be found on the top left of the letter, which we will have sent you when your parcel was received into our International hub.

We accept the following payment methods:

  • All major credit and debit cards
  • Cash (depot only)
  • Cheque (depot only)

We do not accept BACs, Paypal or any other payment method not listed above.

The customs payment website won't accept my reference number

Can I pay using my tracking number?

Unfortunately, only the reference number printed on your customs charge letter can be used to make a payment. If you don't have this, please contact our Customer Service team.

I have paid the customs charge – when will I receive my parcel?

We will normally deliver your parcel the next working day.
