There is no need to obtain customs clearance if you are sending documents in an envelope into Zambia. However, for all other items there is a requirement for a customs invoice to accompany the package. If this sounds like a complicated process, don’t worry, it’s not. To make things really easy, ParcelHero automatically creates the customs invoice for you when you are completing your booking process.
Like any country, Zambia has strict rules and regulations that apply to anything that is sent into the country. We recommend that you familiarise yourself with the import restrictions before sending your parcel to make sure that you are not trying to send anything restricted or prohibited. For more information see the Zambia customs authorities website. ParcelHero also has our own rules about Prohibited and Restricted items.

No matter how simple we make the process, actually finding a specific address in Zambia can at times be difficult. By ensuring that you get the address right, our partner couriers have a significantly easier time finding the right destination. A typical Zambian address looks like this:
Zambia has a five digit postal code. The first two digits specify the routeing province, while the third indicates the routeing zone. The final two digits are used to narrow down the postal area and actual location.
Our partner couriers only deliver on normal working days. If you are sending a gift or other time sensitive goods, you will need to plan around weekends and public holidays when making your booking.
