Sometimes, large items with a light overall weight can be charged according to the space they take up on aircraft. In these cases, Volumetric Weight, or dimensional (Dim) weight, is used to calculate the shipment cost.
It is recommended that you calculate the Volumetric Weight for every
shipment that you send, then compare this to its actual weight. The
greater weight of the two is used to work out the price that we charge
you.
International Volumetric Weights are calculated using the formula below:
Length x Width x Height in centimeters / 6000 = Volumetric Weight in kilograms
The step-by-step guide to completing your Customs paperwork
If your shipment is customs-dutiable, it needs
to be accompanied by an invoice at all times. If it is a commercial

If it is a non-commercial shipment (non-business purpose), such as a
personal gift, sample or faulty part, you will need a proforma or
non-business use invoice.
Please choose the invoice type you wish to complete.
