UK Address for the UAE
PostUK gives you a real UK delivery address so you can shop from any UK retailer and forward parcels to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or anywhere in the UAE. No UK residency required.
From £7.99/month membership. Shipping paid per parcel.
Why UAE residents need a UK address
Most UK retailers only deliver within the UK. British expats in the UAE, UAE residents who prefer UK pricing and product ranges, and anyone who can't get a UK retailer to ship internationally face the same barrier. PostUK provides a personal UK delivery address that any UK retailer will accept.
Once your parcels arrive at our UK depot, you choose a courier service to the UAE, pay online, and track delivery all the way to your door.
No plug adaptor needed
The UAE uses the same Type G plugs and 220–240V/50Hz power supply as the UK. UK electronics, appliances, and gadgets purchased from retailers like Currys, John Lewis, or Argos will work in the UAE without any adaptor or voltage converter. This makes the UAE one of the easiest destinations for ordering UK tech and electronics.
