Ship a parcel to Finland

Customs formalities for Finland
Required documents

When sending a parcel from Switzerland to Finland, please enclose the proforma invoice that is automatically generated via Expedismart.ch. For a new product, the proforma invoice is not the invoice you received from your shop. This document informs finish customs about the contents of your parcel. However, if the goods are to be resold after arrival in Finland, enclose a commercial invoice with the shipment, which is also automatically generated on Expedismart.ch. For higher value goods, we recommend taking out insurance. The cost of insurance is 1% of the declared value of the goods. If you wish, you can arrange this directly when preparing the consignment.
