Vinted UK to France: Unlock the British Catalogue

Does Vinted UK ship to France?

No — and the reason surprises people. France isn't short of Vinted; vinted.fr is one of the platform's largest markets. But Vinted runs each country as its own marketplace, and since Brexit vinted.co.uk sits behind a separate wall. UK sellers post using domestic British couriers (Evri, InPost, Yodel, Royal Mail), and the prepaid label Vinted generates only covers UK addresses. So a vinted.co.uk listing simply won't ship to France, even when the seller would happily post it.

A UK forwarding address is the bridge. With PostUK you buy on Vinted UK exactly as a British shopper would, and we forward the parcel on to you in France.

Why bother with Vinted UK when you have vinted.fr?

Because the British second-hand market is a different wardrobe. vinted.fr is unbeatable for French and European pieces — but for British brands, the depth, the sizing and often the price are all better on the UK side. Vinted UK is where French shoppers go for:

• British heritage labels: Barbour, Burberry, Mulberry, Aquascutum and Pringle, second-hand at a fraction of retail.
• UK high street that's hard to find in France: Marks & Spencer, Next, Reiss, AllSaints, Whistles, Ted Baker and Jack Wills.
• Trainers and streetwear: UK-exclusive drops and sizes, plus Dr. Martens, Fred Perry and Lyle & Scott.
• Vintage and charity-shop finds from the UK's deep resale culture — band tees, tweed, Burberry trench coats and one-off pieces.

If you've ever found the perfect item on vinted.co.uk and hit "UK delivery only", this is the page for you.

How PostUK gets your Vinted UK haul to France

You get your own UK delivery address and use it on Vinted UK at checkout. Nothing changes about your Vinted account, your payment or your Buyer Protection — you still buy and pay through Vinted. The seller posts to our UK depot, we log the parcel to your dashboard, and you decide when to forward it to France.

One haul, one parcel: stop paying twice

A Burberry shirt from one seller, Dr. Martens from another, a vintage tee from a third — on Vinted that's three parcels. Forwarding each separately to France would swallow the savings that made Vinted worth it. PostUK combines your parcels into a single shipment, so you pay one forwarding cost. The bigger the haul, the lower the cost per item.

TVA and customs on Vinted items to France

France is in the EU, so parcels from the UK can attract French TVA (20% standard rate), with customs duty on consignments valued over €150. The good news for Vinted shoppers: second-hand clothing is usually low value, so duty rarely bites, even if TVA can apply. Any charges are assessed by French customs and are the recipient's responsibility, separate from PostUK's forwarding fees. For the detail in French, see our guide aux frais de douane UK → France.

Frequently asked questions

Is vinted.co.uk different from vinted.fr?

Yes. They're separate marketplaces with separate listings and separate shipping. vinted.co.uk posts within the UK only; a PostUK UK address lets you buy from it and forward to France.

Which Vinted delivery option should I pick?

Choose a home-delivery (to-door) option and enter your PostUK UK address. Avoid pickup-point options (InPost/Evri lockers) that are tied to a UK phone number.

Are the listings in English?

Yes — vinted.co.uk is an English-language marketplace, which many French shoppers find easier for searching British brands and reading seller descriptions.

Does Buyer Protection still apply?

Yes. Buyer Protection is tied to your Vinted purchase, not the delivery address. We recommend checking each item at our depot before forwarding.

How much does forwarding to France cost?

From £9.48 for a small tracked parcel. Use Quick Quote for an exact price based on weight and size.
