Why are the shipping costs to my country so high?
The shipping costs to other countries are higher because the transport covers a greater distance. At Celtic WebMerchant, external delivery services determine these rates based on the border the package crosses.
- Transport costs: It costs more fuel and time to deliver a package abroad than within the Netherlands.
- Collaboration between postal companies: Abroad, the Dutch delivery service often has to collaborate with a local delivery service. Both companies want compensation for their work.
Surcharges: For some countries or remote areas, delivery services charge an additional fee for delivery.
