FAQ

What is EDee?

EDee is an automated delivery option that gives you the chance to receive your online orders without the need of logging in to your EshopWedrop account more than once.

What does automated delivery mean?

With EDee being an automated delivery option, this means that if activated, your orders will be delivered to you automatically, based on the preferences you set in your personal EshopWedrop account only once.

Is EDee a mandatory option I have to use?

EDee is not mandatory, it is an optional add-on and can be activated in your personal EshopWedrop account, for free!

If you decide to activate our EDee functionality, then all you need to do is complete the information applicable in your EshopWedrop account under the ‘My parcels’ section and based on this information your future orders will be delivered to you. Also, you are able to deactivate EDee at any time.

Please note: Even if you decide not to use EDee, your parcels will still move to their Destination Warehouse, so Edee will not affect your parcels journey if it is not used.

If I activate EDee, will this work for outstanding orders in my account?

If you decide to activate EDee but you already have orders outstanding in your account, then please note that the preferences you have set will only work for those parcels that are added to your account after the activation. For the parcels already existing in your account, these cannot be automated and will therefore have to follow the manual ordering process.

How does EDee work?

EDee gives you the chance to pre-select the delivery options you wish your orders to use, only ONCE and from then on, each time that you use EshopWedrop to deliver your parcels, EDee will take care of the entire process for you, using the preferences set!

For example: If you pre-select preferences such as the delivery option to be home delivery and use the same method of payment for all of your orders, then Edee will carry out your future orders using these preferences, without asking for any further assistance.

How to Activate EDee?

Step.1 Visit your EshopWedrop Account and go to the ‘My Parcels’ page.

Step.2 Turn On EDee

Step.3 Select the delivery preferences that you wish EDee to take care of for you

Is there a maximum parcel size for automated deliveries?

There is no maximum parcel size for automated deliveries, unless you choose our C&C options (parcel lockers / parcel shops). If you select one of our C&C options and your parcel is bigger than the maximum allowed, then EDee will use the secondary delivery option that you set in your EDee settings.

Also, if you are using click and collect or door deliveries, please check for any courier restrictions that may occur.

What happens if I use EDee but choose to pay ‘cash on delivery’?

If you have selected the ‘Cash on delivery’ payment option, EDee will take care of the delivery for you and will send your parcels to Estonia. Once your parcels have arrived, you can collect and pay for your order using cash on delivery.

Likewise, EDee can arrange for home delivery and payment can be made on arrival.

What happens if I use EDee but choose to send one parcel to a different address?

EDee can be turned on/turned off for one individual parcel separately if wanted. For example, if EDee has been activated, but one parcel needed to be delivered in a different way to the others in the account, EDee can be turned off for this one individual parcel. Then, this particular parcel would just need to be ordered in the usual way.

Will I be informed with updates on the journey of my parcel with EDee?

EDee will send you email updates on the status and journey of your order to keep you fully informed each step of the way.

Can I use Paysera as a payment option for Edee?

Paysera can be used as a payment option for your EDee deliveries, but please be aware that when using Paysera, after you have activated EDee, the deliveries must be paid for before your parcels are sent from the Destination Warehouse with our couriers. Your parcels will otherwise remain in our warehouse until payment has been made, as EDee is not able to automate this process for you.

Is EDee suitable for me?

EDee is the right option for you if you like your online shopping process to be fast and simple. This meaning, less email notifications (if you opt in to receive less) and less logins to your account. However, order tracking and delivery updates are always available on the website for you to access.

Will Edee take care of customs details for me?

In case you decide to activate EDee for USA parcels, please keep in mind that EDee cannot upload customs details in your account on your behalf. You will still need to login to your account and upload these details manually. After these documents have been uploaded, EDee can send your USA parcel to you and finalise the automated process.

Can I use Edee for more than one parcel?

EDee works only if you order your parcels individually, one by one, as currently this option is not available for consolidation of parcels into one single order. In the future we will have this option, so stay tuned!

Can I use Edee for one parcel only?

EDee can be activated for just one parcel if wanted. This option is useful for those who may be away when their parcel will be delivered. If you have a parcel in your account and you would like to automate the delivery process for it then this can be completed by going to the ‘My Parcels’ section in your account and activating EDee for this one parcel. Once your parcel has been received, EDee will take care of the delivery for you.

What happens if I activate EDee but then decide that it isn’t for me?

EDee can always be deactivated and re-activated again as many times as you wish. If you simply login to your account and select the ‘My Parcels’ section, you will be able to switch the On/Off button on the EDee banner to turn EDee on or off.  

Please note: If you decide to activate EDee, the preferences you have set will only work for those parcels that are added to your account after the activation. This means that any parcels that were already in your account before activating EDee, will not be automated and will therefore follow the manual ordering process.

Also, EDee can be turned on/turned off for one individual parcel separately if wanted. For example, if EDee has been activated, but one parcel needed to be delivered in a different way to the others in the account, EDee can be turned off for this one individual parcel. Then, this particular parcel would just need to be ordered in the usual way.

Why is EDee free? Are there any hidden costs?

We offer EDee absolutely free at the moment because we want to offer our customers the best possible online shopping experience. Taking into consideration each and every review we receive every day, we try to find the best solutions so that the service is simple, efficient and enjoyable, which EDee helps with in every way.

Sometimes parcels can contain products known as ‘Dangerous Goods’. It is important that you are aware of the items that are considered ‘Dangerous Goods’ which can be purchased from the USA, as these cannot always be transported due to regulations.

Some goods are classified as ‘dangerous’ or ‘hazardous’ and can be unfit for safe transit. This category can include the following items: aerosols, perfume or anything containing lithium batteries – phones and laptops.

Please find below the list of ‘Dangerous Goods’ parcels:

• Parcels including Li-Ion and Li-Metal Batteries are classed as ‘Dangerous Goods’.
• Only UN3481 can be transported.
• All other Dangerous Goods’ codes cannot be transported. These include: UN3480, UN3091 and UN3090.
• For the parcels containing unknown Dangerous Goods’ codes, they will require being opened and unpacked for retrieval of cliental documentation. This documentation can then determine which of the 4 codes above the parcel is.
  Please note there will be a repacking fee involved for these parcels and they will be marked in the system until the repacking is confirmed by you.
• We can currently only transport the code: UN3481. We are organising transports only when the volumes are high enough for these ‘Dangerous Goods’ parcels. Generally, this transport happens once per month.
• For the codes we cannot transport, please contact our customer support team and confirm if you would like to return the parcels to the USA sellers.
• For laptops and products containing batteries please also contact our client support team.

It’s our priority to ensure your parcels are delivered to you and to make you aware if they contain dangerous items. However, for parcels containing products as per the list above, we cannot be held liable.

We do apologise for any inconvenience this might cause. 

We strongly suggest before placing an order, that you read our Terms and Conditions.

We do apologise for any inconvenience this might cause.  

We strongly suggest before placing an order, that you read our Terms and Conditions – 3.10 (3) regarding size, packaging and contents of the Parcel.

Please note: These products are given as examples and the list is not limitative. Please ensure you observe the legislation in USA, EU and Estonia for any products which might not be allowed.

Delivery prices are calculated based on the parcels’ chargeable weight*

* Chargeable weight:  The Chargeable Weight of Air Freight shiopmemnts are calculated as the Actual Weight (Gross Weight) or the Volumetric (also called Volume or Dimensional) Weight of the shipment, whichever is the greater. The Volumetric Weight that is calculated based on the dimensions (length, width and height) of a parcel: Length (cm) x Width (cm) x Height (cm) / 6,000. Typically, large items with a light overall weight take up more space on an aircraft than a small, heavy item. That’s why the Airlines charge according to Chargeable Weight.

Import Customs Formalities

When parcels arrive at London Heathrow Airport, UK each of them are subject to import customs formalities – this allows the parcels to be circulated as EU parcels to any EU destination country without any other customs formalities during the transit or at destination.

Once the parcels arrived in the UK the USD declared value is converted into GBP based on the FX rate published monthly by the HM Revenue & Customs (UK Customs Authorities)

Low Value (LV) Parcels with value up to £14.99: Parcels to this value are exempt from custom formalities, import VAT or import duties.
Medium Valu (MV) Parcels with value from £15 to £134.99: Individual parcels will be charged with Import VAT of 20% from the Statistical Value.
High Value (HV) Parcels with value above £135: Individual parcels will be charged as per the Import VAT of 20%, plus Import Customs Duties depending on the products categories, all applied to the Statistical Value of each parcel.

Statistical Value  - The Import VAT and Import Duties are calculated based on Statistical Value which is the Declared Value slightly increased by the HMRC. From our experience so far but without this being a guaranteed factor, the average statistical factor was 1.04 (4% average increase of the Declared Value to obtain the Statistical Value).

Import Customs Paymets are made of the Import VAT, Import Customs Duties and any other Import Taxes paid by EshopWedrop to HMRC (UK Customs Authorities) on behalf of the clients for importing the parcels into UK. They are paid in GBP and the same amounts without any margin on top are updated in the EshopWedrop system for each parcel. The system is then converting the GBP amounts into each destination country’s local currency (e.g. EUR for Lithuania, RON for Romania) based on the official exchange rates published by the local national bank and applicable in the day when the import customs formalities were done and the import payments were made by EshopWedrop on behalf of the clients. These Import Customs Payments will be calculated as amounts to be paid by the client at checkout when each such parcel is ordered by the client for final delivery in the destination country.

Import Customs Clearance Service Fee: This is the service fee charged to the clients by EshopWedrop for the service for taking care of the import formalities of each parcel. These fees are different for LV, MV and HV parcels and are according to the official tariffs list published on the website.

Import Customs Payments Service Fee: this is the service fee charged to the clients by EshopWedrop for the service of making the Import Customs Payments on behalf of the client. These are Import VAT, Import Customs Duties and Other Import Taxes paid by EshopWedrop (or its subcontractors and appointed agenst) to HRMC (UK Customs Authorities) in order to import each parcel. This fee is a percentage from the total amount of such Import Customs Payments made for each parcel, with a min amount being charged and they are according to the official tariffs list published on the website.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Each parcel will be treated individually. This means the Import Customs procedures will be applied separately to each parcel.
In case of more than one parcel for the same client consolidated into one shipment arriving in London Heathrow Airport, UK, the cumulated value of all parcels for the same client is considered for determining each parcels’ customs category (Low Value Parcel, Medium Value Parcel or High Value Parcel).
E.g. regardless of individual values, two parcels each valued £10 will be considered as a Medium Value Parcels – this is as a result of their cumulated value of £20 and will be custom cleared in line with the Medium Value Parcels import customs payments and and services fees as presented above.

Is there a max limit in the parcel’s chargeable weight?
Yes, 1,000 kg.*

Is there a max limit in the parcel’s declared value?
Max value per parcel: USD 2,500*
* If your parcel exceeds any of these limits and prior of ordering, please contact our team and one of our customer’s representatives will advice you of the process needs to be followed. Only parcels within these limits are considered Parcels as defined in our Standard Terms and Conditions and the tariffs and all the other conditions are apploicable. Any parcel exceeding any of these limits will need to be agreed with special conditions and tariffs applicable offline.

Is the service available for companies or only for consumers (private individuals)?

The service can be used also by companies but it is very important to understand that the import customs clearances are done in UK electronically and bulk for the entire shipment made of all the parcels consolidated into one transport. Therefore we cannot provide any Import Customs Declaration for each parcel which usually companies require as supporting documentation for the import VAT or import customs duties paid for the import formalities.

The above is applicable for all the parcels even for those for consumers (private individual clients) – there will not be available any individual Import Customs Declaration for individual parcels and we will not be able to provide to the clients supporting documentation for the Import VAT or Import Customs Duties paid for individual parcels.

How does the USA service work?

The USA EshopWedrop Origin warehouse is based in New York and close to JFK airport. This means, that every time you are shopping online from online retailers your parcels will be sent to the USA Origin Warehouse and from here they will be delivered to the UK warehouse, via Heathrow airport.

Deliveries to the USA Warehouse are accepted from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm (New York time).
All parcels are processed within 24hrs after delivery, except those delivered during Thursdays, which are processed on the same day.

Cut off times – Parcels with customs details updated and confirmed by Thursday 5 PM Eastern Time (ET) for each departure day will be included in the same day’s departure.

Currently we have one weekly departure from the USA Origin Warehouse, on each Friday with the airfreight departure from JFK Airport, NYC on Sunday and arrival at London Heathrow Airport on Monday morning.

Thus parcels delivered to our USA Origin Warehouse from Friday to Thursday will be processed and recorded in our system by Thursday Close of Business (ET). The clients will need to update the customs details of these parcels by Thursday 5 PM ET in order to ensure they will depart the same Friday.

What do I need to do when parcel arrives at the USA warehouse?

Please log in to your Personal Account and compete the following steps:

Upload supporting documentation for the products categories and values declared (invoice, online order confirmation, proforma invoice, etc.).

This document must present clearly the description of the products, the quantity and the amount paid for the products. If any of these details are missing the parcel cannot depart from the USA!

You must complete the product category details mentioned above in ENGLISH ONLY and must match the description from the supporting documentation (invoice or online order confirmation).

Declared value in USD including any applicable sales tax and USA delivery charges, according to the supporting documentation uploaded. The maximum value per parcel accepted by the system is USD 2,500. This is the maximum value for simplified export formalities accepted by the US Customs Authorities.

Please note: If you do not have a default delivery address in your destination country declared in your account you will be prompted to add one.  This is a necessary condition for the parcels to be sent from the USA. This address will be declared as your address for the export and import customs formalities.

What happens when the parcels arrive in the UK?

Firstly, Parcels arrive in the UK on Monday at the Heathrow Airport for import customs clearance (see more details below about the import customs formalities).
Once the parcels have been customs cleared they will be delivered by Tuesday (12 PM UK time) to the EshopWedrop UK origin warehouse. At the UK Origin Warehouse the parcels will be sorted and will leave on the next scheduled departure from UK to Estonia.
