The table shows the cheapest service per band; across every service and weight, prices on this lane run from €10.00 to €558.84. Box size is the parcel each band was quoted with. Send something bigger at the same weight and the courier charges volumetric weight instead, length × width × height in centimetres, divided by 5000, which moves the parcel up a band. All 11 bands are priced on this lane.

Common questions

How much does it cost to send a parcel to Northern Ireland from Ireland?

A 2 kg parcel sent from Ireland to Northern Ireland costs from €13.00 with GLS, the cheapest of 6 prices we hold at that band on 14 August 2026. Prices on the lane start at €10.00 for a 0.5 kg parcel and reach €24.40 for a 30 kg one.

What is the cheapest way to send a parcel to Northern Ireland from Ireland?

The cheapest price we hold to Northern Ireland is €10.00 with GLS on Gls Euro Parcel, for a 0.5 kg parcel quoted 6–8 days. That one can be collected from your address or dropped off, whichever suits the day. Weigh and measure the box before you compare: couriers charge in bands, so a 2.4 kg parcel prices at the 3 kg band, and a big light box is charged on volumetric weight instead of what the scales say.

How long does delivery to Northern Ireland take?

Couriers quote 2 to 8 working days for a parcel sent from Ireland to Northern Ireland, across the 66 prices we hold. The fastest estimate is 2–3 days with FedEx on FedEx International Priority. The cheapest service quotes 6–8 days, so price and speed pull against each other here. Estimates count working days from collection, not from the moment you book.

Do I need a customs declaration for Northern Ireland?

No. A parcel sent from Ireland to Northern Ireland needs no customs declaration. Great Britain does, and that is the distinction most senders miss: England, Scotland and Wales sit outside the EU customs union, Northern Ireland does not.

Is Northern Ireland charged as domestic?

Not by the couriers on this page. The cheapest price we hold to Northern Ireland is €10.00 at 0.5 kg, against €7.00 for the same band within the Republic, and delivery is quoted at 2 to 8 working days rather than next day. An Post prices Northern Ireland inside its own domestic zone, so its counter rate is worth checking against these for a small parcel.

Worth knowing

Prices move in bands

Couriers price in steps, so we quote in the same steps. A 2.4 kg parcel prices at the 3 kg band here and at the 3 kg band when you book, round up, never down. The weight that counts is the heavier of the actual weight and the volumetric one.

What the number includes

Each price is the total the booking site quoted for that service on the day we checked, with VAT treated exactly as they treat it. We don’t add a fee and we never take payment.

Cheapest isn’t fastest

The cheapest service on this lane is rarely the quickest: €10.00 buys 6–8 days with GLS, while the fastest estimate we hold is 2–3 days with FedEx. Compare both before you book.

Addresses and timing

Where these were quoted to

Collection is quoted from a Dublin address and delivery to a reference address in Northern Ireland. Your own Eircode and the delivery address can move the number a little, so the exact price is confirmed at booking.

Working days, not calendar days

Transit estimates are the courier’s own, counted in working days from collection rather than from the moment you book. Book before the cut-off and the clock starts the same day.

Booking happens elsewhere

Not here. Each service links out to our partner’s secure booking site with that service selected, and the price shown is confirmed there before you pay.
