About BPD Express and the shipping flow

BPD Express is a German postal operator with over 30 years of experience. We manage international deliveries from across Europe and help customers ship parcels and documents to Russia, as well as to Ukraine, Crimea, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Armenia, Georgia, and Belarus.

In 2026, shipping from Lithuania follows a clear and predictable route: Lithuania → Germany → Russia. You book online, receive a free label, and choose how to hand over the parcel — request free home courier pickup or drop it off via Lithuania’s national post. The shipment is then routed to our warehouse in Germany, where the actual weight is recorded, an invoice is issued, and after payment the parcel is forwarded to the recipient in Russia.

Delivery cost

Pricing depends on:

• parcel weight;

• selected service (economy / standard / express).

In general, a higher total weight means a more favorable price per kilogram. You can estimate the cost in advance using the online calculator (enter weight and postal code).

Delivery times in 2026

Typical delivery time is 12–18 business days. Transit time may vary depending on the service level, seasonal peaks, and customs clearance in Russia and the EAEU.

Customs rules and sanctions restrictions

Before shipping, please consider:

• international prohibitions for certain categories of goods;

Completing the declaration correctly

• Use the configurator to select accurate categories and wording.
