Next Not Delivering to Ireland
Next is one of the UK's most popular retailers for clothing, homeware, and children's wear — but many items won't deliver to Ireland. PostUK gives you a UK delivery address so you can order from Next's full range and forward to your Irish address.
Why PostUK for Ireland: forwarded from our Belfast base — no hard customs border to the Republic, delivered to your door (not a border locker you drive to), your choice of courier, and the full price shown before you pay.

Why Next doesn't ship some items to Ireland
Next offers international delivery to some countries but restricts many product categories. After Brexit, delivering from the UK to Ireland requires customs paperwork for every parcel. Next has removed international delivery from a significant portion of its range — including most furniture, large homeware, and some clothing lines — leaving Irish customers unable to order directly.
A UK forwarding address bypasses this entirely. Next ships to a UK address without restriction, and PostUK handles the international leg to Ireland.
What you can order from Next and forward to Ireland
Next is a staple for Irish families, and a PostUK address opens up the full UK catalogue:
- Childrenswear and school uniform — one of the UK's biggest kids' and baby ranges, a common reason Irish parents shop Next.
- Clothing for the whole family — womenswear and menswear, including Petite, Tall and Plus lines.
- Homeware and bedding — duvet sets, curtains, towels and kitchenware that Next often restricts from Irish delivery.
- Furniture — Next's home furniture is almost entirely UK-delivery only, so forwarding is usually the only route to Ireland.
- Hundreds of third-party brands — Lipsy, Mango, Reiss, Joules, Ted Baker and more, all on the Next site and shippable to your UK address.
Buying against a UK address also means UK sizing, the UK returns window, and UK sale prices — frequently lower than the prices Irish shoppers are shown.
Cost and delivery to Ireland
Forwarding to Ireland starts from £18.55 and depends on parcel weight and size — a single clothing order is usually at the lower end, while bedding or furniture costs more. You see the exact price before paying; check yours with the Quick Quote tool first.
Ireland is one of our fastest routes: we deliver to Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick and across the Republic, usually within a couple of working days of dispatch, with full tracking. Ordering from Next and other UK shops at once? PostUK can combine them into one shipment so you pay a single forwarding fee.

Frequently asked questions
Why doesn't Next deliver to Ireland?
Many Next product lines are UK delivery only, especially homeware and furniture. Brexit customs complexity has led Next to restrict international delivery on more items over time.
Can I get Next's free delivery with PostUK?
Yes. Next's free UK delivery threshold applies to your PostUK UK address. You then pay PostUK's forwarding cost to Ireland.
Can I return Next items through PostUK?
Yes. Your PostUK UK address can be used for Next returns. Check Next's current returns policy before purchasing.
How much does forwarding to Ireland cost?
Forwarding starts from £18.55 for small parcels and depends on weight and size. Use Quick Quote for an exact price.
How long does delivery from Next to Ireland take?
Next delivers to your PostUK address in 1–2 working days. Ireland is one of our fastest forwarding routes, usually reaching Dublin, Cork and the rest of the Republic within a couple of working days of dispatch.
Do I pay Irish VAT or customs on Next orders to Ireland?
PostUK forwards from Belfast, so parcels reach the Republic without crossing a hard customs border — no customs queue. Any Irish VAT or duty that applies is the responsibility of the recipient. These are assessed by Irish Revenue and are separate from PostUK forwarding costs. See our customs guide.
