Question 1

How long does AliExpress take to ship to United Kingdom?

Accepted Answer

Shipping to United Kingdom typically takes 20–45 business days via AliExpress Standard Shipping, 12–22 days via ePacket, and 10–25 days via AliExpress Premium Shipping. Times vary by origin warehouse (China, Spain, Poland, US), seller processing speed, and customs at destination.

Question 2

Which carriers deliver AliExpress orders in United Kingdom?

Accepted Answer

Final-mile delivery to United Kingdom is handled by the national postal service and its partners — typical carriers include the public post plus major private couriers like DHL, FedEx, UPS, or local equivalents depending on the shipping method the seller selects. Most Standard and ePacket orders hand off to local post once they clear customs.

Question 3

Can I track an AliExpress order to United Kingdom?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every AliExpress order generates a tracking number once the seller ships. You can track via the AliExpress app or site, and after the parcel reaches United Kingdom customs the tracking number usually also works on the United Kingdom postal service's website. Tracking updates are most frequent for ePacket and Premium shipments; Standard shipments may show fewer scan events.

Question 4

Will I pay import taxes or customs duties on AliExpress orders to United Kingdom?

Accepted Answer

Possibly — import tax and VAT rules are set by United Kingdom customs authorities, not AliExpress. Many countries apply VAT and duties when the order value exceeds a de minimis threshold (commonly €150 EU, £135 UK, USD-equivalent thresholds elsewhere). AliExpress usually collects destination-country VAT at checkout where required by local law and shows it on the invoice. Check your country's current de minimis with the local customs website before ordering high-ticket items.

Question 5

How do I pick the fastest shipping option to United Kingdom?

Accepted Answer

AliExpress Premium Shipping (10–25 days) is the fastest option and is worth the extra cost for higher-value or time-sensitive orders. ePacket (12–22 days) is the best balance of speed and price for small parcels under 2 kg. Standard Shipping (20–45 days) is cheapest but slowest — recommended only when delivery date is flexible. Sellers with warehouses in United Kingdom or neighboring regions can often ship faster than the times above.
