Shipping from Germany to Russia 2026: fast, reliable, sanction-free

Today, international shipping from Germany to Russia remains one of the most in-demand yet most complex logistics tasks. Economic realities, sanction restrictions, and constantly changing customs regulations require individuals and businesses to rely not just on a carrier, but on a reliable partner capable of guaranteeing results. BPD-EXPRESS is more than international mail service in Europe — it is your guide in the world of complex logistics, offering transparent, fast, and most importantly, legal solutions.

We understand that it is important for you not only to send a parcel to Russia, but also to be confident in its safety, delivery timeframes, and smooth customs clearance. In this article, we take a detailed look at how BPD-EXPRESS ensures reliable postal delivery under the conditions of 2026, and what you need to know if you are planning to ship a parcel to Russia.

Current Customs Regulations 2026: What You Need to Know

The key factor affecting the shipment of goods is customs regulation. As of April 1, 2024, Russia has introduced an updated duty-free import threshold, which remains valid in 2026 as well [1].

Table 1: Customs Limits for Individuals (2026)

Important nuance:
If both limits (value and weight) are exceeded, customs charges only the higher of the two calculated duties, not their sum.

Example:

• Parcel value: €250 (excess €50)
  Duty by value: €50 × 15% = €7.50

• Parcel weight: 33 kg (excess 2 kg)
  Duty by weight: 2 × €2 = €4

The recipient will pay €7.50, not €11.50 (€7.50 + €4).

Important: customs duties are always paid by the recipient independently. BPD-EXPRESS provides all necessary documentation for declaration but does not pay customs duties in Russia.

Sanction Restrictions and Legal Workarounds

The question of how to bypass sanctions is the most sensitive one. BPD-EXPRESS uses fully legal and proven logistics schemes that allow the delivery of goods not included in direct sanction lists but requiring special handling.

Our approach: we use transit routes through CIS countries (for example, Kazakhstan), ensuring compliance with international law and guaranteed delivery. We do not ship dual-use goods or items under direct prohibition. Our logistics are built on transparency and legality.
