Welcome to MDE, your reliable partner for shipping international packages. Below we offer you a detailed guide to the key features, costs and considerations when sending a package from Europe to Switzerland. Our mission is to provide you with a transparent, efficient and secure shipping experience.

Proper packaging

  2. Sealing: All boxes are protected with film and sealed with strong adhesive tape and stickers.
  3. Reusable boxes: We try to reuse boxes whenever we can to reduce our pollution footprint as much as possible.
  4. Repackaging: If you need to change the packaging of your goods, we are here to help you.

Costs, times and shipping options

  • Carriers: We only work with trusted and guaranteed carriers, such as DHL, UPS, TNT, Fedex and other locations in each country where we operate.
  • Shipping addresses: You can send to the carrier's home or collection point.
  • Shipping Costs: Find out about shipping rates depending on the weight, size of the package and the chosen service. You can calculate the shipping costs using the transportation quote.
  • Estimated Deadlines:
    • Delivery times vary depending on the carrier and the service selected.
    • On average, shipments from Europe to Switzerland take between 5 to 10 business days.
  • Shipping Options:
    • Standard delivery: Economical but with longer delivery times.
    • Delivery with stopover: Combination of couriers with stopover at a warehouse in the network so that you save as much as possible, with longer delivery times.
    • Express delivery: More expensive but guarantees faster deliveries.
  • Shipping Insurance:
    • Basic insurance included. In case of incidents, €6.67/kg domestic and €10/kg international will be covered.
    • Optional premium insurance with full coverage starting from the declared value of the package.

All shipments have a tracking number included!

Restrictions and Regulations

  • Prohibited Items: There are certain items that cannot be shipped to Switzerland under any circumstances. These include:
    • Hazardous Materials: Explosives, flammables, poisons, dangerous chemicals.
    • Illegal Drugs and Controlled Substances: This includes narcotics and certain over-the-counter medications.
    • Weapons and Ammunition: Including replicas and parts of firearms.
    • Pornographic Material: Any content considered obscene or pornographic.
    • Protected Fauna and Flora: Species in danger of extinction, live animals without the corresponding permits.
  • Restricted Items: These items can be shipped to Switzerland, but require special permits or must comply with certain regulations:
    • Medicines: Some medications require a doctor's prescription or an import permit.
    • Food and Beverages: May require health permits, and certain fresh foods are subject to restrictions.
    • Cosmetics and Hygiene Products: Require compliance with health regulations.

  • Declaration of Content and Value
    • Accurate Description: The shipper must provide a detailed description of the items in the package, including quantities and types.

Don't be afraid, our team of experts is here to assist you at all times.

Customs procedures

  • Package Check: All packages entering Switzerland are checked by Swiss Federal Customs to ensure they comply with the country's import regulations.
  • Tariffs and Taxes:
    • Parcels with a declared value less than 65 CHF (approximately) are exempt from import duties and taxes.
    • For higher values, a tariff will be applied depending on the product category and the value of the package.
    • In addition, VAT (Value Added Tax) of 8.1% will be charged on the value of the product, including shipping costs.
  • Packages from the European Union:
    Although Switzerland is not a member of the European Union (EU), it maintains bilateral agreements with the EU that facilitate trade. Packages coming from the EU are subject to the same customs rules as other non-EU countries. However, it is important to note that, depending on the type of product and value, reduced tariffs or exceptions could apply, thanks to free trade agreements between Switzerland and the EU. This may translate into more agile customs processes for certain goods, but VAT of 7.7% will still be applied to the total value of the package.
  • Payment of Tariffs: The recipient must pay the tariffs and the corresponding VAT, which can be managed through the carrier or directly with Swiss customs.Additional Documentation:
    • Some products, such as food, medicines or electronic devices, may require additional permits issued by Swiss authorities such as Swissmedic or the Federal Office for Food Safety and Veterinary Affairs.
  • Release Procedures: Once the duties are paid and the correct documentation is provided, the package will be released by customs and delivered to the recipient. 
  • Package Tracking: The package can be tracked using the tracking number provided by the courier company.
  • Possible Delays: Customs procedures, especially if additional documentation is needed or restricted products are involved, may cause delays in delivery.

We help complete all your customs documentation to avoid possible inconveniences!

Frequently asked questions about shipping to Switzerland

What items cannot be shipped to Switzerland?

Está prohibido enviar drogas ilegales, armas, explosivos y algunos medicamentos o alimentos sin los permisos adecuados de Swissmedic o la Oficina Federal de Seguridad Alimentaria.

Do I need to declare the contents and value of the package?

Yes, it is mandatory to declare the contents and actual value of the package. Shipments with a value less than 65 CHF are exempt from duties, but those of higher value are subject to taxes and duties.

What happens if my package contains restricted items?

Restricted products, such as certain foods or medications, may require additional permits. If the requirements are not met, the package may be detained at customs.

What additional costs can I expect when sending a package to Switzerland?

Packages with a value greater than 65 CHF will be subject to additional duties and VAT of 7.7%, applicable to both the value of the package and shipping costs.

How long does it take for a package to arrive in Switzerland?

Shipping times vary, but express shipments usually take between 2 to 5 days, while standard shipments can take between 7 to 10 days.

What should I do if my package is detained at customs?

If your package is detained in customs, you will generally receive a notification with instructions to follow. This may include providing additional documentation or paying duties and taxes. It is advisable to contact the courier service for assistance.

How can I track my package?

When shipping a package, be sure to get a tracking number from the courier. You can use this number to track the package through the carrier's website and get updates on its status.

What documents do I need to send a package to Switzerland?

Generally, you will need a commercial invoice or contents declaration, and a customs form. For certain items, additional permits or certifications may be required.

Can I send gifts to Switzerland and how should I declare them?

Yes, gifts can be sent to Switzerland. Gifts with a value less than 65 CHF are exempt from duties and taxes, but must be declared correctly.

How to handle customs procedures in Switzerland?

When shipping to Switzerland, MDE facilitates the self-management of the customs proforma to avoid problems. Remember that you must correctly declare the content and its value.

How does the Swiss five-franc allowance work?

If your shipment's calculated tax does not exceed CHF 5, nothing is charged: in practice, packages up to ~CHF 60 (8.1% standard rate) or ~CHF 190 (2.6% reduced rate) enter with no charge at all. Small, frequent shipments = zero tax cost.

Does Switzerland charge duties on clothing or electronics?

Not anymore: Switzerland abolished industrial tariffs on 1 January 2024. The vast majority of online purchases pays only the Swiss VAT (8.1% standard, 2.6% books and food) when above the allowance. Separate warning: counterfeits: Switzerland is among the countries that destroy the most replicas at the border.
