Compare An Post and public courier parcel options before you pay for postage.
Compare business shippingAn Post domestic Standard Post parcels start at EUR 9.00. The service is useful when you want post office access, Click & Post, domestic tracking for parcels, and clear international customs flows.
GLS publishes ParcelShop pricing from EUR 8.00 for small ROI parcels. DPD prices are quote-based and depend on collection, delivery, weight and dimensions.
If tracking is essential, compare Standard parcel tracking, Express Post, Registered Post and courier tracking rather than choosing only on the headline price.
Goods leaving Ireland for non-EU destinations need customs data. Great Britain parcels also need customs data, while Northern Ireland is different for many goods movements.
If the parcel is a Vinted, Depop, eBay or Etsy sale, check whether the platform has already generated a prepaid label. If it has, use that exact carrier route and get a drop-off scan.
If you send more than 20 parcels a month, public counter rates are usually the wrong benchmark. Compare parcel accounts, prepaid labels, returns handling and shipping software.
Use the dated Postage.ie table only while its source check is current, then confirm the live An Post or GLS amount for the packed size, weight and route before paying.
An Post states that tracking is available on Standard Post parcels within the Republic of Ireland.
If Vinted has generated an integrated prepaid label, use the selected Vinted carrier route. Buy your own tracked label only when the platform flow allows it or the item needs custom shipping.
