Shipping Luggage to The Philippines

Transporting Your Belongings To The Philippines 

When travelling to The Philippines, there’s more than one way that you can transport your belongings there. It’s important that you are aware of the options available to you, so that you can get the most out of your money and find a method that’s suits you best.

Traditional Removals

If you’re considering relocating to The Philippines, you might want all of your luggage with you – Including the larger items you own. This method of shipment will allow you to do just that. You can move the larger, bulkier items you own that are too large to be sent on your airline or through a luggage shipping company.

This method is a great way to get your furniture and other large household items with you to The Philippines, but it can sometimes take up to two months to get your luggage delivered to your destination within The Philippines. It’s also a costly process, so only use a traditional removals company if it’s completely necessary.

Airline Baggage

Checking on your belongings to your airline is a fast way to transport them to The Philippines. This option is best for short holidays and for those that are bringing very little with them to The Philippines. However, if you are planning on bringing a lot of luggage to Philippines, don’t pay expensive excess baggage fees and instead, ship your luggage. This way, you can enjoy having a little more with you, without having to spend a lot of money.

Prohibited and Non-Compensation Items

When shipping with My Baggage, you can ship almost everything you would find in a typical holiday suitcase. However, there are some items that we are unable to ship on our services, this is standard for most luggage shipping companies. For that reason, before making a booking, please do read our full list of prohibited items (link below).

As a general rule, you can be sure that the following items are prohibited:

• Cash, Credit Cards, Debit Cards
• Perishable Foods
• Medicines
• Animal Products
• Aerosols

It is important to note that there are also a number of items that can be carried on our services, however, they would be sent at your own risk as they are not covered under compensation cover. If you choose to send any non-compensation items, please ensure that they are packaged appropriately, with plenty of internal packaging for fragile items.

Security and customs processes differ all around the world, which is why we highly recommend that you do your own personal research into what may be prohibited in The Philippines before booking your shipment with My Baggage.

What type of packaging can be used?

Once you have made a booking with My Baggage, you will need to package your items. For this, you can use cardboard boxes, suitcases or indeed, as mixture of both.

When sending your items in suitcases, we strongly advise against using fragile suitcase.  With regards to boxes, they should be sturdy and double/triple-walled cardboard box as they are most durable and suitable for transit. It’s important that you take note of these recommendations as we do not offer compensation for packaging on any of our services.

If you are sending any fragile or delicate items, we recommend using internal packaging to protect them during transit. You can use materials such as bubble wrap or newspapers.

You can read through our complete packaging guide to find out more.

Customs Information In The Philippines 

When transporting your personal effects to The Philippines with My Baggage, you are legally required to complete and send a customs declaration with your shipment. If your shipment does not have a customs invoice attached, it will not make it past your local country border, and you may have to pay return charges to get it back. Once you make a booking, we will then provide you with the appropriate customs paperwork for you to complete and attach to your My Baggage shipment.

Generally, My Baggage shipments clear customs in a timely manner, free from duties and taxes, as most countries offer a generous duty-free allowance for personal effects. However, it should be noted that customs processes and allowances are different in each and every country, and because My Baggage has no control over any decisions made by any customs authority, we do advise doing your own personal research into customs regulations and quarantine within your destination country before booking your shipment.
