How Parcel Connect Light works

Parcel Connect Light makes e-commerce shipping for small items and lower-value goods simple. Using local postal services – who your customers know and trust - you can send goods to more than 220 countries around the world with just one customs form and one label. It’s the smart answer to international shipping for small business, start-ups and larger companies who send lots of single items.

Three flexible pricing options

A choice of three weight ranges for goods up to 100 g, 500 g and 2 kg - with each option tailored to suit your budget. Now you can ship more lightweight goods and documents to more countries more affordably.

Simple Customs management

Shipping low-value items cross-border is time-consuming. And time is money. Use just one address label and simple CN22 form for customs, and you can ship goods worth up to €358,50 worldwide hassle-free.

Lower costs, greater trust

Parcel Connect Light unlocks more competitive pricing to the world’s postal networks, giving you a lower-cost shipping solution and the benefit of a local delivery provider your customers trust.

Tracked to the door and more
