Buying from Swedish online stores can be an affordable and attractive option for Danish customers â especially for products like cosmetics, wellness items, accessories, and snus/nicotine pouches that may not be available domestically.
But since Denmark has specific import rules, many Swedish retailers now require customers to book their own shipping after purchase.
đŠ Why canât stores just include shipping?
Most of the time, itâs because of one of these reasons:
đ Danish tax regulations (e.g., nicotine tax or VAT rules)
đ Customs compliance
đ« Carrier limitations (some couriers wonât deliver these products to DK)
To avoid delays, legal complications, or blocked shipments, the store removes shipping from the checkout and instead lets the customer choose how to get their package delivered.
đ So how does it work?
After completing the purchase, the customer is redirected to an independent platform (like PackBee.io) where they can:
Enter their order number and email
Choose a delivery option (UPS or PostNord)
Pay for shipping
Receive tracking information and confirmation
The shipping company then arranges pickup from the Swedish sender and delivers it to the chosen address or pickup point in Denmark.
đ©đ° What should Danish customers know?
You act as the importer when booking shipping
You may be responsible for paying any applicable duties or taxes
Your shipment will be fully tracked and legally declared
â Conclusion
This self-service shipping model is becoming increasingly common in the Nordics â especially for sensitive or regulated goods. It ensures transparency, flexibility, and makes it easier for stores to serve Danish customers without violating local import rules.
