How to Shop in Europe and the USA with Delivery to France: A Complete Guide to the Meest Shopping Service

Have you been dreaming of brand-name items from American sales or looking for unique products from European online stores, only to find that most of them don't deliver to France or offer excessively expensive shipping? There is a solution. The Meest Shopping international delivery service opens up the borders of online shopping, allowing French customers to buy goods in 9 countries around the world and receive them right at home.

In this article, we will explain in detail how the service works, why it is profitable, and how you can start your international shopping journey today.

What is the Meest Shopping international delivery service?

Meest is a global postal and logistics operator specializing in cross-border parcel delivery. For customers in France, the company offers a convenient parcel forwarding service.

The essence of the service is simple: you register in the system and receive virtual addresses for Meest Shopping warehouses in various countries (USA, United Kingdom, Poland, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Czech Republic, and Ukraine). When buying goods in local online stores in these countries, you use the Meest Shopping warehouse address as your delivery address. The warehouse staff receives your order, repackages or consolidates it with your other purchases if necessary, and sends it to you in France.

Shopping Geography: Where Can You Order From?

The service allows you to make purchases in the world's most popular shopping destinations:

• USA: Access to Amazon, eBay, 6pm, Carter's, Victoria's Secret, Apple, and thousands of other brands that often offer exclusive collections or significantly lower prices than in Europe.
• Europe:
• • United Kingdom: ASOS, Marks & Spencer, SportsDirect.
  • Poland: Allegro, Zara PL, Reserved.
  • Germany: Amazon.de, Zalando, Otto.
  • Southern Europe (Spain, Portugal, Italy): Mango, Massimo Dutti, KIKO Milano, Furla, Calzedonia.
  • Czech Republic: Alza.cz, Mall.cz.
• Ukraine: Support for Ukrainian brands and designers (VOVK, Kachorovska, Must Have) with delivery to France.

Benefits of Using the Meest Shopping Service for Customers in France

Why should you choose forwarding instead of direct delivery from the store?

1. Savings on Delivery

Often, international shipping directly from an online store (if available at all) is unreasonably expensive. Meest Shopping offers competitive and transparent rates. Furthermore, you can use the consolidation service: combine several orders from different stores into one box at the warehouse and send them as a single parcel. This is significantly cheaper than paying for the delivery of each item separately.

2. Access to "Closed" Stores

Many brands in the US and Europe do not ship goods outside their own country. Having a local Meest Shopping warehouse address in the country of purchase solves this problem. To the store, you appear as a local buyer.

3. Reliability and Control

You always know where your parcel is thanks to detailed tracking. The company has many years of experience in logistics, which ensures careful handling of your shipments.

4. Convenient Management

The entire process of managing your parcels is done online—through a personal account on the website or a convenient myMeest Shopping mobile app (available for iOS and Android).

How It Works: A Step-by-Step Guide

The ordering process is as simple as possible and consists of several steps.

Step 1: Registration

Register on the Meest Shopping website or in the mobile app. After registration, you will receive a unique customer ID number and warehouse addresses in all available countries.

Step 2: Online Shopping

Go to your chosen online store (e.g., Amazon USA or Allegro PL). Select your items and proceed to checkout.
In the Shipping Address field, enter the Meest Shopping warehouse address in the corresponding country and be sure to add your ID number (it is usually written next to your name or in the second address line). This allows the warehouse to identify that the parcel belongs to you.

Step 3: Registering Your Purchase

After the store ships your order, it will provide you with a local tracking number. Go to your Meest Shopping account and register this tracking number. Here you can also order additional services, such as item inspection, a photo report, or repackaging.

Step 4: Arranging Delivery to France

When your purchase arrives at the Meest Shopping warehouse, you will receive a notification. Now you can create a shipment: enter your French address, choose the delivery method, and pay for the service.

Step 5: Receiving Your Parcel

Wait for the courier or delivery to a pickup point in France. Delivery times depend on the country of origin; for example, from European countries, it usually takes 4 to 10 days.

Additional Features: Buyout Service

Sometimes, an international online store may not accept French bank cards or may cancel orders to a forwarding company's address. In such cases, Meest Shopping offers a Buyout Service (Shop Service).

You simply send a link to the desired product in your Meest Shopping account, specifying the required size and color. The service managers will purchase the item for you. After it arrives at the warehouse, you can arrange delivery to France as usual.

What to Know About Customs Limits

Since France is a member of the European Union, the delivery of goods from other EU countries (Poland, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Czech Republic) is not subject to customs duties. You only pay for the cost of the goods and delivery.

When ordering from non-EU countries (USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Ukraine), EU customs regulations apply. VAT of the destination country is charged on all goods, and if the value of the parcel exceeds €150, customs duties may also be applied. We recommend checking the current customs rates in advance.

The Meest Shopping service for customers in France is a reliable bridge between you and the global e-commerce market. There is no longer a need to limit yourself to the assortment of local stores. Buy gadgets in the USA, clothes in Spain, cosmetics in Korea, or designer items in Ukraine, and Meest Shopping will take care of fast and safe delivery to your door in France.
