Personal belongings are prohibited in parcels. The EU’s 10th sanctions package.

Important information for everyone sending parcels from Germany to Russia!

With the entry into force of the EU’s 10th package of sanctions against Russia, the shipment of used items is prohibited.

This means that items declared as "used", "personal belongings", "gebraucht" and similar are not accepted for shipment. The EU regulation imposes an absolute ban, regardless of the value of the goods.
Now, all items in the declaration must be described in detail, without using general categories. "Items" and "clothing" must now be listed by specific names, such as "trousers", "socks", "shirt" and so on.
Goods such as motor oils, brake pads, bearings, belts, and many other automotive spare parts are prohibited from being shipped.

✅ Our comment: "You can still send used items, but you must no longer state this in the parcel declaration. We repeat: these are the requirements of German customs. Nothing has changed on the Russian side."

This information was confirmed to us by the Russian Post branch in Berlin. All parcels collected across Germany at DHL and Russian stores are sent to Russia through them.

Branch phone numbers: 030 74 68 32 28 or 030 233 217 527
