Benefits

• What is the Global Shipping Program?

  The Global Shipping Program (or “GSP”) allows international buyers to shop with confidence for US-based items thanks to the GSP’s built-in protections and end-to-end tracking.

  The GSP makes things simple for buyers by automatically calculating import and shipping charges for international purchases upon checkout. Before purchasing, the buyer sees the item price plus all fees. That means no surprise charges and no additional fees upon delivery.

  Buyers can also keep an eye on the progress of their shipment with end-to-end international tracking. Plus, buyers are protected if the item is lost or damaged during international transit.

  With the GSP’s continuous growth, buyers have access to more items than ever before, with 70M monthly listings and counting.

• Why shop with the Global Shipping Program?

  The Global Shipping Program expands your shopping horizons by thousands of items in hundreds of categories. This means greater selection for millions of buyers around the globe. And with protections in place for both buyer and seller, shopping globally is just as easy and worry-free as shopping locally.

HOW TO’S

• What happens when I buy something through the Global Shipping Program?

  Once a Global Shipping Program item is sold the seller simply ships the item to the Global Shipping Center. And then once it arrives, the Program takes care of the rest. International shipping experts make sure your item is ready for transport, help it clear customs, and send it on its way via our trusted network of “last mile” shipping providers.

  Another benefit of the GSP is that there are no additional fees due upon delivery. All charges are covered up front, and you can track the progress of your item from when it leaves the Global Shipping Center all the way until it arrives at your door. So as a buyer, after you complete your purchase, you can just sit back and relax until your item arrives.

• Can I request an invoice?

  Invoices are not available for Global Shipping Program transactions. Buyers see their total charges (including the cost of item plus shipping and import charges) when they purchase the item. The shipping costs may include domestic shipping fees charged by the seller, as well as program fees, international shipping charges, fuel surcharges, and processing and handling fees.

Countries

• What countries are eligible?

  The Global Shipping Program currently ships to over 100 countries worldwide—and counting! To see if yours is included, view the list.

• How will I know when new countries are added?

  eBay will provide notice of any additions to the list of eligible countries by posting a notice on https://announcements.ebay.com/. Any such additions are automatically effective 10 calendar days after a notice is initially posted.

• The item is not available in my region. Now what?

  We endeavor to make our marketplace listings available to the broadest number of potential buyers across the globe. However, there are times when certain products or categories are not available in your region.

  There are a number of reasons for this including the availability of inventory, legal compliance, safety, and risk mitigation for eBay and its sellers. You can get more information on restricted items here.

  We apologize if this has caused you any inconvenience, and we appreciate your cooperation in helping to make eBay a safe and trusted marketplace for everyone.

Restricted items

• Why are some items are restricted?

  The Global Shipping Program places restrictions on the size and weight of items that are available for international shipping. This is to ensure that international delivery can be completed on all GSP items. In addition, all GSP items must be physically located in the United States in order to qualify for the Program.

  GSP items are also subject to the import/export laws of the buyer’s country of residence. In addition, illegal or hazardous items cannot be sent via the Global Shipping Program.

  Other restrictions apply to GSP items. Click here for more information and a more complete list of restricted items and categories.

• What happens if my item cannot be shipped forward?

  There are times when eBay, Pitney Bowes, or Pitney Bowes’s service providers may determine that an item cannot be shipped forward to you. This may result in the purchase being cancelled, and the payment being reversed. The Global Shipping Program will then process the item as undeliverable and proceed in an appropriate manner. This may include the disposal or reselling of the item, in accordance with the Buyer Terms and Conditions.

Payments

Setting Up Gsp Return Policy

• Why are there two payment transactions on my Order Details page?

  When you pay for the item through PayPal, you are authorizing two payment transactions. The first payment goes to the seller and consists of the item cost and the US domestic shipping costs (if any). The second payment goes to the global shipping provider and consists of the international shipping and import charges. After you’ve completed checkout, you can review these charges on the Order details page. The Order details page shows the total charges and the payment amounts to the seller and global shipping provider.

• What payment methods are accepted?

  You must pay for GSP items using PayPal.

Fees

• What is the difference between shipping costs and import charges?

  The shipping costs include any US domestic shipping fees charged by the seller, as well as program fees, international shipping charges, fuel surcharges, and processing and handling fees.

These charges could change if, for example, you change your shipping address during checkout, or if the applicable import rules change before you complete your payment.

  For additional information about applicable fees, see the eBay Global Shipping Program Buyer Terms and Conditions.

• Will I have to pay customs fees again?

  You will only pay customs fees once. With the Global Shipping Program, you'll know the total when you pay for your item. You'll see the item cost, the shipping total, and the import charges (including applicable customs duties, taxes, and third-party brokerage) at the time of shipping. There are no additional fees due upon delivery of your item.

• Why do I need to pay import charges?

  Import charges include applicable customs duties, taxes, brokerage, and other fees. These charges are paid in every instance where they are due in order to ensure that the item clears customs. Paying these import charges up front also means that there are no additional amounts due upon delivery of your item.

• Why do the import charges seem so high?

  The Global Shipping Program calculates these charges in line with the laws of the applicable country. Import charges are calculated using the most recent information available, often including up-to-the-minute rate updates. By assessing these import charges in every instance where they are due the Global Shipping Program is able to make sure that items clear customs free of additional delay. Paying these import charges up front also means that there are no additional amounts due upon delivery of your item.

• Can I pay import charges when the item arrives in my country instead?

  No. Under the terms of the Global Shipping Program all import charges (including customs duties, taxes, brokerage, and other Program fees) are paid up front, at the time of purchase. These charges are paid in every instance where they are due in order to help ensure that the item clears customs. Paying these import charges up front also means that there are no additional amounts due upon delivery of your item.

• Who is responsible for paying the Program Fees?

  You are responsible for paying all shipping and import charges (“Program Fees”) that apply to the purchase of GSP items during checkout. These Program Fees, which will be calculated and displayed to you within GSP item listings, are as follows:

• Why are there additional import charges on some of the shipping options?

  Import fees vary by country, and the Global Shipping Program takes measures to ensure that fees are paid in every instance that they are due. The import charges are included with the shipping charges to make the transaction easier for you. This way, you know the charges up front and there are no surprises and no additional fees upon delivery.
