Minimalist Not Shipping to Ireland
The Minimalist only delivers to UK, USA, and a handful of other countries — Ireland isn't included. PostUK gives you a real UK delivery address so you can order from beminimalist.co and forward your skincare straight to your Irish address.
99p first month, then £7.99/month · Shipping paid per parcel.
Why Minimalist doesn't ship to Ireland
The Minimalist ships from the UK to a fixed list of markets: UK, USA, Malaysia, UAE, Canada, and Australia. Ireland — despite being directly next door — is not included. There is no international shipping option at checkout for Irish addresses.
This is a deliberate logistics decision, not a temporary restriction. The Minimalist has not expanded their shipping to EU countries, which means Irish customers ordering directly from beminimalist.co will hit a dead end at checkout.
A UK forwarding address removes this block. From The Minimalist's perspective, your order is a standard UK delivery — it ships to our UK depot, and we forward it on to Ireland.
How PostUK fixes it
PostUK provides you with a personal UK delivery address at our Northern Ireland depot. When you enter this address on beminimalist.co, your order ships within the UK as normal. We receive it, log it in your dashboard, and forward it to your home in Ireland.

What makes The Minimalist popular with Irish shoppers
The Minimalist is known for affordable, science-backed skincare with active ingredients at effective concentrations. Their range includes niacinamide serums, retinol, AHA/BHA exfoliants, vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and SPF products — most priced between £5 and £15.
Comparable products from international beauty brands often cost two to three times as much. For shoppers in Ireland, the UK site offers access to the full product range at UK pricing — the savings justify the forwarding cost, especially when ordering multiple products in one go.
What does it cost?
- Membership: 99p first month, then £7.99/month — your UK address and dashboard.
- Forwarding: paid per parcel when you dispatch. Shipping to Ireland starts from £18.55 for small parcels.
Minimalist products are lightweight, so most orders fall into the lower forwarding price tiers. Use Quick Quote to estimate your forwarding cost before you order. For full Ireland pricing, see Shipping UK to Ireland cost.
Customs and VAT on Minimalist orders to Ireland
Parcels from the UK to Ireland are subject to Irish import rules after Brexit. Irish import VAT (23% standard rate) may apply, plus customs duty on goods valued over €150. These charges are collected by the courier or customs authority — they are not included in PostUK forwarding prices.
See our UK customs and duties guide for a full breakdown.
Frequently asked questions
Does Minimalist ship to Ireland?
No. The Minimalist (beminimalist.co) ships to the UK, USA, Malaysia, UAE, Canada, and Australia only. Ireland is not included. PostUK lets you use a UK address to receive your order and forward it to Ireland.
How can I get Minimalist products delivered to Ireland?
Create a PostUK account, get your UK address, order from beminimalist.co to that address, and we forward it to your Irish address. Forwarding to Ireland starts from £18.55.
Why doesn't Minimalist ship to Ireland?
The Minimalist has not expanded their shipping to EU or Irish markets. Ireland is simply not on their delivery list. PostUK works around this by giving you a UK address they will deliver to.
Is it worth the forwarding cost?
For most orders of 3–5 products, yes. Minimalist serums are £5–£15 each on the UK site. If you're ordering several items, the forwarding cost per item drops significantly. Combining with other UK orders via PostUK consolidation makes it even better value.
Do I pay customs charges on Minimalist orders to Ireland?
Irish import VAT (23%) may apply, plus customs duty on goods over €150. These are separate from PostUK forwarding costs and are collected by customs or the courier.
