How Much Does It Cost to Send a Pallet to Ireland?

Pallet Delivery to Ireland: Everything You Need to Know

The price for sending a pallet to the Republic of Ireland varies by location within Ireland and your UK starting point. Different UK zones and postcodes have unique rates, so for a quick quote, simply provide your UK postcode and the destination county in Ireland.

We offer pallet delivery to Ireland for both business and residential addresses; however, we do not handle private goods or residential-to-residential deliveries.

Customs and Paperwork for Ireland Pallet Delivery

A valid UK EORI number (starting with "GB") is required for shipping from the UK to Ireland. For those shipping frequently, it's best to prepare your EORI in advance by visiting the UK government website, where you can get an EORI number for free. Irish EORI numbers start with "IE."

Good news: Export paperwork costs are covered in our pricing, though customs fees (typically 20% of the goods’ value) are determined by HM Customs during transit.

Shipping from Business to Business or Business to Residential

• Business to Business: Add both EORI numbers (GB for UK, IE for Ireland) to your commercial invoice to ensure smooth processing.
• Business to Residential: Use the UK EORI number as the exporter and 'NR Private Individual' for the importer’s EORI details on the commercial invoice.

Note: Any Incoterms can be used as agreed with your customer, specifying who is responsible for customs charges.

Commercial Invoice Requirements

To send goods to Ireland, a commercial invoice is mandatory. Missing information could lead to delays, so ensure it includes:

• Full product line list and 10-digit commodity codes
• Manufacturer's country of origin
• Importer and exporter details with addresses
• Valid EORI numbers for both parties
• Goods value
• Chosen Incoterms
• Invoice number and total weight

Incoterms for Ireland Pallet Delivery

On the commercial invoice, choose the correct Incoterms to clarify customs fee responsibilities. Here are two common choices:

• DDP (Delivered Duty Paid): The exporter covers customs charges, usually preferred for residential deliveries.
• DAP (Delivered At Place): The importer is responsible, and they’ll be contacted for customs fees before delivery.

Pallet Shipping to Northern Ireland

Shipping to Northern Ireland is straightforward - just use the postcode rather than the county. Customs paperwork isn’t necessary, but delivery times may vary due to customs processing (1–3 days on average).
