Burmese customs clearance
When shipping to Burma, all packages will be assessed with duties and taxes in mind. However, goods that are worth less than $500 will not have any charges levied, as long as their paperwork is in order. Be sure to fill in the paperwork in English, with values stated in US dollars.
One important point to keep in mind is your customs paperwork, which is vital when shipping internationally. Make sure to be precise when declaring the nature and value of your goods - instead of "Toys", declare "Wooden Building Blocks" for example.

Collection & delivery
Collection
When shipping to Burma, or from Burma to the UK, ParcelCompare can collect your parcel on the same day from many locations throughout both countries. However, when shipping parcels that are particularly large or heavy, or have special requirements, we will need your booking a day in advance.
ParcelCompare will collect your parcel between 9am and 7pm on normal working days. If you're not available or would prefer not to wait in for your collection, you can leave your parcel at a local drop-off point in the UK.
Delivery
Most of our delivery partners will make up to three attempts when delivering your parcel. Some, however, will only attempt delivery once before returning the package to the sender, or leaving it at a local collection centre. Delivery will be between 9am and 7pm on normal working days.
If you're sending to a residential address couriers will charge a fee, as often there's nobody home to collect the package and they have to make another trip. So you can save even more money by sending to a business address if convenient.

Tracking your parcel to Burma
At Parcelcompare we pride ourselves on offering more than great prices – that's why we offer free real-time tracking for every parcel that we carry. Your parcel gets scanned every time it changes hands, so you can keep an eye on it all the way to its destination.
And in the very unlikely event that there is a problem with your package, we'll get in touch with you and your recipient with some more information about the delay, and how it can be resolved.
Large parcel and air freight
We know our business when it comes to shipping heavy or bulky parcels. In fact, we specialise in sending packages of up to 1,000kg in weight and 270cm in length to destinations around the world. If you'd like to ship a large or heavy parcel to Burma, all you need to do is make sure to book a day in advance, and be on hand when your courier arrives, so you can help out in loading your delivery.
Sending gifts to Burma
When shipping to Burma, there are no exemptions for shipping gifts. That means that all gifts will be treated as normal parcels for customs purposes. Low value exemptions may be applied to parcels worth less than $500, so they will not have duties and taxes applied.
It's easy to fall into the trap of declaring your goods as “Gifts” in your customs paperwork. If this is the case, there may be problems in clearing customs as the description is not specific enough – to avoid problems, be sure provide a full description of your goods.
Ship food to Burma
Although there are plenty of tasty treats to enjoy in Burma, there's always something you just can't find. If you're tired of Mohinga, or are just not a fan of Danbauk, you can ship your favourite foods to Burma from the UK with Parcelcompare.
Food is a very popular shipment, and Parcelcompare knows exactly how to make sure it arrives safely. So if you want to send snacks to Yangon or a tasty treat to Mandalay, all you need to do is follow a few simple rules.
What you can send:
Non-perishable foods
Store bought foods with a best before date over 6 months away
Items must be in the original manufacturers packaging and unopened
The food label needs to list all the ingredients
The best before date must be displayed on the packaging
Examples of pershable foods: Crisp and savory foods, Chocolates and candy, Canned foods, Herbs and Spices in sealed containers, tea bags, Jams and other preserves
What you cannot send:
Perishable foods
Foods with a shelf life of less than 6 months
Homemade foods or any foods not in the original manufacturers packaging
Foods that can spoil during transit
Food in packaging that have been opened
Food that does not contain a food label listing the ingredients
Packaging your parcel
Packaging your goods is important to making sure that they arrive in good condition. This is because shipping internationally is a complex process, and your parcel will be passed between multiple couriers during its journey.
There are three main packaging points:
1. GET A STURDY BOX
Although it's tempting to use an old box, they often conceal weaknesses that could lead to a box bursting or being crushed in transit. Parcels that weigh more than 10kg in particular should be sent in a new, double corrugated box.
2. PACK THE CONTENTS
Each item should be wrapped individually and placed in the box, to be surrounded with packaging materials like packing peanuts. No part of the goods should be touching the box walls, and nothing should move when the box is shaken.
3. SEAL IT UP
By using proper packing tape, you can further protect your box. Wrap your box three times around in a Union Flag pattern, which protects the corners. Add shipping labels so that all information can be clearly seen.

Holidays and gift giving occasions in Burma
Burma, known as Myanmar to many, has among the most public holidays of any country in the world, which is great for leisure lovers but not ideal for the courier who is set to deliver your parcels. This is because packages aren't collected or delivered on public holidays. To ensure that your delivery arrives on time, have a look at the dates that we've collected below and factor them into your preparation.
