How to order from UK retailers if you live overseas
Ordering oversees is becoming easier. But there are still countless shops and brand, in every country, that have not yet moved international with their shipping.
Ordering products online from another country is easier than ever — but many UK retailers still don't offer international shipping. Whether it’s clothing, tech, or food, countless British brands only deliver within the UK. That’s where package forwarding and custom sourcing proxy shopper services like ours come in.
Why so many UK stores don’t ship internationally?
A surprising number of UK retailers still limit their delivery to UK addresses only. This is often due to:
High international shipping costs
Customs clearance issues
Concerns over fraud and lost parcels
Limited logistics infrastructure
Stores like M&S, Argos, John Lewis, and even Amazon UK may restrict international delivery — especially for certain product types like food, tech, or cosmetics. As a result, many shoppers living abroad are unable to order directly.
What are your options as a customer?
Living outside the UK and want to access british products, your options are:
Ask a friend or relative to buy and send it - not always convenient, and can face issues with customs
Use a traditional package forwarding service - this still relies on you doing all the shopping, and can be restrictive, with sign up fees and membership requirements
Use a custom UK order service (like ours) - you tell us what you want, and we do the rest
We offer a flexible alternative. Whether online goods, or items requiring purchase from a physical store, if you let us know an item and the shop, we purchase, package, and send to your address worldwide.
