Christmas Shipping Deadlines 2022

Last day to ship parcels for Christmas 

It’s that time of year again! If you’re planning to post gifts to family and friends, it’s time to get organised. Christmas will be upon us before you can say ‘panettone’ so it’s essential to plan ahead.

To help keep your Christmas planning on track, we’ve put together a list of last posting deadlines for Italy, Europe and the rest of the world.


Deadlines for sending parcels in Italy 

If you’re sending gifts in Italy, try not to leave it until the last minute. For peace of mind, send your gifts a couple of weeks before Christmas.  There’s plenty to do in the run-up to Christmas, so get your Christmas posting done early and give yourself more time to relax with family and friends. 

However, if things don’t go to plan (they often don’t at Christmas), Parcel Monkey can still help you out. Using our shipping calculator, you can book an express courier up until December 22nd at a discounted rate.  

These reliable courier services will ensure your parcels reach their destination in time for Christmas: 

Christmas deliveries in Italy 

Service Post by*
UPS Standard 21 December
UPS Express Saver 22 December

 

*Your parcel must be with the courier by this date.

 Top Monkey Tip

Your parcel must be with the courier by the specified date so if you’d like your parcel collected, please book the day before you would like the collection. E.g. Book by Tuesday 20th for a collection on the 21st.  If you would like to drop off a parcel please check the opening and collection times for your chosen drop off point. 

Deadlines for international post 

If you’re sending gifts to family and friends overseas, Parcel Monkey can help you send a gift to almost any international destination at a discounted price. However, you will need to allow more time for international deliveries at Christmas, especially if you want to avoid paying extra for an express service.

The tables below show the last posting dates for delivery to Europe and the rest of the world.
