Regarding international shipment rate changes

We would like to inform you that in connection with global changes, we had to revise the rates of Latvijas Past Eksprespasta – EMS (Express Mail Service) service for shipments to certain countries. From April 11, 2023, we have significantly reduced the rates for shipments to Ukraine, reducing them by an average of 33% for shipments weighing up to 1 kilogram, thus ensuring lower rates for other weight categories to this country as well.

Rates will increase for shipments to Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. For sending parcels to Russia, the previous transport surcharge of EUR 7.00 is included in the basic tariff and is no longer applicable.

As a reminder, no additional fuel factor surcharges apply to EMS shipments.

Information on customs clearance of shipments in Ukraine

For all postal items sent to Ukraine, there is a duty-free limit of 150 EUR, even if the parcel contains humanitarian aid. To avoid taxes and duties, the value of the postal item should be lower than 150 EUR per receiver per dispatch.

If several parcels are sent to 1 person, their total value should be lower than 150 EUR.

If Customs officers consider that the actual value of the content exceeds the value declared in the postal documents, customs duties and VAT may be charged.

Regarding the delivery of parcels in Ukraine

Despite the ongoing attacks in Ukraine, Ukrainian Post continues to deliver parcels to recipients. However, we would like to inform you that the delivery of parcels to certain regions where active hostilities are taking place is not possible due security reasons and to damage or complete destruction of the infrastructure.

Regarding changes in Express Mail Service tariffs

Due to several global changes, we have significantly revised our Express Mail Service (EMS) tariffs. We would like to inform you that starting from April 7, 2022, we have had the opportunity to significantly reduce shipping rates to European countries by an average of 50%. In turn, we are forced to slightly increase shipping rates to the United States.
Tariff changes will affect the legal customers of the Express Mail Agreement. If you have any questions, please contact Latvijas Pasts by phone 67008002 or by writing to the e-mail address uznemumiem@pasts.lv

Regarding fuel surcharge for domestic parcel flow

Dear Customer!

Due to the significant rise in fuel prices over the past year, we have been forced to reconsider the cost of our services. For several years we have been able to maintain and provide our customers with a stable and constant price of services, but taking into account the last year’s average increase in fuel prices by + 56%, we have decided that from April 1st, 2022 fuel surcharge will apply.

The fuel surcharge will be calculated according to the change in the monthly increase or decrease in fuel prices, based on the average fuel price for the previous month. For each following month, the average fuel price and fuel ratio will be published on the Eksprespasta website: https://expresspasts.lv/ in the section Price calculator.

The fuel surcharge will not apply to such services as parcel delivery to post offices, Latvijas Pasts parcel terminals, delivery of parcels at Circle K Latvia petrol stations, Baltic Express and EMS (Express Mail Service).

Customers who deliver items to post offices without an agreement with Express Mail are also asked to pay attention to changes in tariffs.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation, and we look forward to its successful continuation!
