Colissimo internationalIf you want to offer delivery outside Europe (La Poste area information), you need to create a carrier

"International Home delivery with signature Colissimo".

The delivery cost will be determined according to the volumetric weight of the package and the geographical area.

In order to calculate the taxable weight, it is necessary to note the actual dimensions of the package and to apply the following calculation: [L(cm) x l(cm) x h(cm) / 5000]. The retained weight will be the higher between the volumetric weight thus obtained or the actual weight of the package.

Ex: You want to ship an order for Martinique, to Fort de France. As soon as we receive your order in our system, we prepare the package to obtain its dimensions.

  • Actual dimensions: 26 x 20 x 18 cm
  • Actual weight: 0.8 kg
  • Volumetric weight: (26 x 20 x 18) / 5000 = 1.872 kg

The taxable weight retained by La Poste Colissimo is 1.872 kg and not 0.8 kg. The weight range on our Colissimo International grid is therefore 1 to 2 kg.

You will have to pay the shipping costs and send us your invoice for customs clearance purpose at destination, so that we can send the package to your customer.

Thank you to imperatively add the following mentions on the invoice, otherwise the parcel will be blocked at our warehouse:
