If you need to send a parcel to Africa then Parcel Monkey can help.
We can help you find and book a range of discounted courier services to destinations in Africa, including South Africa, Kenya, Nigeria and Zimbabwe just to name a few.
Get an instant quote through our simple courier quote form and we’ll find you the cheapest way to send a parcel to Africa with big names like DHL, DPD and Parcelforce.
That really depends on where in Africa you’re sending to and what service you choose. We regularly help customers send parcels to South Africa and this can take anywhere between 2-3 working days with DHL Express and 3-7 working days with Parcelforce Priority International.
When you get a quote through Parcel Monkey you'll be able to compare prices and transit times to ensure you book the service that best meets your needs.
Remote locations (areas outside major cities) may take a little longer and estimated delivery times do not include potential delays in customs.
When you ship to Africa you will need to complete a customs declaration form detailing the item(s) you’re sending and its value. Don’t worry though, we’ll take care of this during the booking process. We’ll ask you all the relevant questions, then provide you with a completed declaration to print and attach to your package.
Don’t forget to check our prohibited items list to ensure the item you’re sending is safe to travel via courier and always check for any restrictions specific to the country you’re sending to. A good source of information is generally the website for the customs authority in the destination country.
