Shipping to Angola with europacco
Practical example: shipment to Luanda
Angola uses a simplified addressing system compared to Europe: house numbers are often missing, and postal codes are not always used. Here is a concrete example for the Italian Embassy:
Destination:Embaixada de Itália em Angola
Rua Comandante N'zaji, 13
Luanda
Angola
In major cities such as Luanda, addressing generally works well, while in smaller towns it is recommended to add landmarks (e.g., “near the municipal market”).

Shipping time to Angola
Estimated transit time
The estimated transit time from Italy to Angola is 6–9 working days. Shipments to Luanda are generally faster thanks to the direct air connection, while inland destinations such as Huambo or Malanje may require an additional 2–3 days.
Possible delays
During Angolan national holidays (4 February – Start of the Armed Struggle, 11 November – Independence Day), customs operations slow down. The rainy season (October–April) can also occasionally affect ground connections to inland provinces.
Frequently asked questions about shipping to Angola
Do I need to translate the documents into Portuguese for Angolan customs?
It is not mandatory but highly recommended. Angolan customs accept documents in English, but invoices and product descriptions in Portuguese significantly speed up clearance in Luanda. Europacco provides export documentation in English; if you need certified translations, please contact our customer service before shipping.
Can I ship construction materials such as tiles or sanitary ware to Angola?
Yes, Angola regularly imports Italian building materials. However, check size and weight: for large quantities of tiles or bulky sanitary products, sea freight may be more cost-effective than air shipping. Contact us for a personalized consultation on large shipments intended for Angolan construction sites.
What are the customs costs for the recipient in Angola?
Angola applies duties ranging from 2% to 50% of the declared value, with lower rates for machinery and industrial equipment. A 14% Angolan VAT and a fixed customs clearance fee also apply. Goods intended for infrastructure projects may qualify for exemptions; the recipient should confirm with local customs before shipping.
