Our delivery partner have advised us that on the globalexpress service, Saudi customs have increased inspections on all shipments through the Dammam gateway (KFIA) and the Batha border and causeway. This has meant that they are unable to provide a confirmed transit time for destinations in that country. Therefore we have to suspend the service guarantee until we are advised otherwise.

Although the situation in South Africa (and indirectly Namibia) has improved during the past few months, there continues to be delays on parcels of up to 15 days on parcels being delivered to South Africa addresses and 20 days for Namibia.

Due to operational issues in Sudan, our supplier has temporarily stopped accepting parcels bound for Sudan (Khartoum).
