Send a parcel to Gabon

The Gabonese Republic (or Gabon as it is called in the UK) is another tropical African nation with an Atlantic coastline. It shares borders with the small Equatorial Guinea and Cameroon.

Petroleum accounts for over two-thirds of Gabon's exports with manganese and wood, in its various forms, accounting for much of the rest.

Although 2010 saw contractions in the Gabonese economy, much of the rest of the past two decades has seen strident economic growth.

The combination of a strong oil-based economy and growing economy has seen the local infrastructure improve significantly which has helped keep typical delivery times kept to a minimum. You can generally expect parcels to be delivered in two to three days with DHL and three to four full days via our own Air Express service.

Is there cheap shipping to Gabon available?

In terms of prices, you can expect to pay around £33 if you book our own brand Parcel Monkey Air Express service arriving in just 3-4 days which is only a day or two longer than the DHL Air Express service.
