Customs
Shipments booked via DHL for delivery to private individuals can only be sent to the cities of Kyiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Odesa, Kharkiv, Donetsk, Mariupol, Lviv and Simferopol.
Detailed goods description for each individual item is required. (General description like gift or personal effects is not acceptable by Customs).
Adoption of new version of Customs Code from Friday 1 June 2012 in Ukraine means that all non-doc shipments under customs control or not received by consignee, when the storage period exceeds 30 days, will be returned to the shipper, without informing the sender or receiver.
Before sending your parcel to Ukraine, please make sure that none of the items in your parcels contravene the restrictions imposed by customs at destination.

Documents Needed
After you have paid for a shipping service to Ukraine, you will be redirected
to a page where you can download and print out the relevant shipping labels, i.e
AWB (Courier Air Waybills - barcode) - Proforma or Commercial invoice - Address label.
The above documents are standard for any international shipment.
Please note, if additional documentation is required for the import of any particular item, it is the
customer's responsibility to provide them at destination.
Restrictions
Goods travelling by 'Cargo' are subject to different restrictions to those travelling as carry-on
luggage.
A shipment to Ukraine is deemed unacceptable if: it is classified as
hazardous material, dangerous goods, prohibited or restricted articles by IATA (International Air
Transport Association), ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organisation) or other relevant organisation.
Many items which appear harmless in everyday use can pose danger on air transport and are consequently
forbidden for transport.
The following page displays a sampling of common prohibited and restricted goods.

Packing Advice
Your parcel must be boxed and well packaged. This will reduce the risk of damage to any item during
transit or any associated automated distribution process.
Please be aware the item is not taken by hand from collection to destination and will visit many sorted
facilities on its journey. For that reason, you need to protect the items to ensure they make it from A
to B safely.
The following packaging guidelines are recommendations to assist you in packaging your shipment:

Zaporizhia is a Ukrainian city on the banks of the River Dnieper. It is one of the Ukraine's leading industrial centres, which has led to the presence of electricity generating plants such as the 'DnieproGES' Dnieper Hydroelectric Station and the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Plant, which is the largest of its kind in Europe and helps to provide the electricity supply required by the preponderance of heavy industry in the area. The industries based in Zaporizhia include manufacturing industries, aluminium plants and the production of goods such as cars, aeroplane engines and radio electronics. Outside of the industrial realm, visitors flock to Zaporizhia to visit the daily exhibitions of artists, at which they are allowed to watch and chat to craftsmen and artists engaged in activities such as embroidery, sculpting and beading.
