Send parcel to Belize
Your parcel to Belize, between coral reef and jungle
Belize is the only English-speaking country in Central America, which makes filling in an address a good deal easier. A shipment from Italy takes 7-11 working days. Belize City, on the coast, is the largest city and the gateway to the country. The capital Belmopan lies inland, San Ignacio towards the western border and Orange Walk Town in the north, among the sugar cane fields. Much of the economy lives on tourism: resorts, jungle lodges and dive centres along the second-longest barrier reef in the world. Europacco collects the parcel from your home or business, anywhere in Italy, and gives you a tracking code. You order and pay online in a few minutes.
Thanks to our extensive transport network, we are able to guarantee an optimal balance in terms of quality/price. By choosing europacco.com for a parcel shipments you will have:
- collection at home
- estimated delivery time: 7 to 11 working days
- shipment tracking

Shipping to Belize with Europacco
An address in Belize is short. For a 6 kg parcel of exhibition material going to the national museum in Belize City, three lines are enough:
Museum of Belize8 Gabourel Lane
Belize City
BELIZE
Belize has no postal code, so that field in the form stays empty. The layout follows the British pattern, with the house number before the street. Outside Belize City, add the district. There are six in all, for example "San Ignacio, Cayo District" or "Placencia, Stann Creek District". For the islands, always put the name of the caye after the town, as in "San Pedro, Ambergris Caye". The local post delivers mostly to PO boxes, but the courier needs a physical address and a phone number.

Shipping time to Belize
The 7-11 working days apply to the mainland. The Belize Customs and Excise Department checks incoming shipments. September is the month of national celebrations, from St. George's Caye Day on the 10th to Independence Day on the 21st, and many offices work in fits and starts. Garifuna Settlement Day falls on 19 November and is celebrated above all in Dangriga and the south. June to November is hurricane season: when a warning is issued, the boats and small planes to the islands stop running.
Belize: the answers you are looking for
How do I send a parcel to San Pedro on Ambergris Caye or to Caye Caulker?
The same way as to any other destination in Belize, and at the same price. The parcel arrives on the mainland and continues to the islands by boat or small plane, which adds 1-2 days. Write the name of the island in the address and name the resort, shop or dive shop where the recipient can be reached.
Can I send diving equipment to Belize?
Regulators, BCDs, wetsuits, masks and fins ship without difficulty. Tanks are excluded, because pressure vessels count as dangerous goods for air transport. The same goes for dive computers, torches and other devices with lithium batteries, which Europacco does not accept in shipments. Declare the real value of the equipment, as customs uses it to calculate duties.
The recipient lives at a "Mile" along a highway: what do I write in the address?
In rural areas many addresses give the distance along one of the main roads, for example "Mile 54, Hummingbird Highway". It is an official reference and couriers know it. Copy it as it is, then add the nearest village with its district and the recipient's phone number.
Customs information for Belize
Shipments to Belize require customs clearance and are subject to import duties and taxes. europacco.com prepares the export documents, while the recipient must cooperate with the local customs office for the import process.
Required documents: commercial or proforma invoice, declaration of free export, and a copy of the sender’s ID. Accurate documentation speeds up clearance and helps prevent the shipment from being held.
Duties in Belize depend on the declared value and the type of goods. To learn more about how to correctly complete customs documents and specific national rules, see our customs information guide.
