The ongoing pandemic has made many of us turn to online shopping to fulfill our needs and wants, whatever they may be. And sure, e-commerce platforms like Facebook Marketplace, Shopee, Lazada, and Zalora have a lot of offerings. But there are still some things that aren’t available to us here in the Philippines. International online shopping isn’t exactly cheap — even if some international stores offer direct shipping to your doorstep, the shipping fees that could be more expensive than your purchased item would really make you think twice. Good thing forwarding services exist to save us from exorbitant fees.

A forwarding service is essentially a platform where you can rent a warehouse address in the country where you’re shopping and have all your packages delivered and consolidated to be shipped to you. It allows you to shop from stores that deliver exclusively within your country of choice and have them brought to you. Check out these forwarding services that allow you to shop from international stores all over the world. Each one has different prohibited items that they cannot accept or ship to you, so make sure you read their terms and conditions thoroughly!

 

Pinoy Box Delivery

Forwarding Services - Pinoy Box Delivery

Ships from: USA, United Kingdom, Canada, Spain, China, Taiwan, Thailand, Hong Kong, and South Korea

Pinoy Box Delivery offers forwarding services from several countries all over the world. Shop from any store in these countries and have your items shipped to their respective partner warehouses. Once your box is filled, you can then have it shipped to the Philippines. Depending on which country you’re shopping from, they offer different box sizes ranging from Baby and Bulilit to Jumbo and Mega. Their box rates start at PHP 1,780. Get your address here.

 


Buy and Ship

Forwarding Services - Buy and Ship

Ships from: USA, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, China, Thailand, Australia, Italy, and Indonesia

Buy and Ship has partner warehouses in the countries listed above, but their main warehouse is in Hong Kong, where they consolidate all your packages in one big box if you request it. They also offer reward programs, which include earning credits from using their services or referring friends. Get your address here.

 

My Shopping Box

Forwarding Services - My Shopping Box

Ships from: USA and Europe

My Shopping Box has two warehouse addresses you can use for shopping, one each in the United States and Europe. Your items can stay at their warehouse for free for 15 days. And when you’re ready to receive them, My Shopping Box can ship your items in two ways: via air cargo (faster but more expensive) or sea cargo (cheaper but a longer wait). It really depends on your need (or how quickly you want your package to arrive). Unfortunately, they do not offer consolidation services yet, so you’d have to pay per package that arrives in their warehouse. But if you authorize shipments within the same day with the same type of shipping (air or sea), they will ship these packages together. Get your address here.

 


STS Logistics

Forwarding Services - STS Logistics

Ships from: South Korea

If you’re a big fan of all things Korea, you should probably sign up with STS Logistics. They provide you with a shipping address in South Korea, and you can have your purchases sent to their warehouse. Once your packages arrive at their warehouse, you get track your packages on their website. They don’t offer consolidation services, as they ship per batch of packages they receive at their warehouse. Rates start at PHP 300/kg via sea cargo and PHP 600/lb via air cargo. Once you have more shipments with them, you can avail of their lower rates — it’s part of their loyalty program. If you’re a small and micro-entrepreneur, they also offer assistance services, including lower rates, transaction assistance, and 24/7 customer support. Get your address here or through their Facebook page.

 

My Korea Box

Forwarding Services - My Korea Box

Ships from: South Korea

Unlike other forwarding services that provide you with a fixed rate, My Korea Box offers you their services for a membership subscription fee, depending on how often you shop in South Korea.

They only ship through EMS or K-Packet, which are both shipped via air cargo. Get your address here.

 

From Japan

Forwarding Services - From Japan

Ships from: Japan

Japan has a lot of offerings for Pinoys that unfortunately cannot be shipped directly to our country. But forwarding service From Japan helps you shop anything you want, from anime collectibles to unique KitKat flavors. Unlike the other forwarding services on this list, From Japan would be the one to purchase your items for you (since most Japanese shopping sites do not ship overseas or accept international payment methods). Aside from their buying service, they also offer consolidation of your packages so you can get them all in one go. Get your address here.
