With Tiptrans, you can shop from stores that may not offer direct shipping to your country. Simply use the local address Tiptrans provides for that country, and they’ll forward your purchases to your own address, no matter where you are. This service is incredibly helpful for accessing products that are otherwise restricted or difficult to ship internationally. It’s also handy for finding better shipping rates and avoiding the limits some retailers place on global shipping.

when you’re filling out the address, it’s a good idea to include your phone number directly in the address field. This is because some shipping providers might not print a separate phone number section on the label.
Using Tiptrans for Receiving Packages
With Tiptrans, you get access to receiving addresses in the UK, Germany, Czech Republic, and Hong Kong, making it easy to shop internationally.

Having multiple address options like this is super handy, especially if you’re looking to buy from stores that don’t ship to your country. Once your items arrive, you can consolidate and forward them wherever you need. It’s a simple way to expand your shopping options and manage international deliveries smoothly.

Top up Tiptrans
To top up your Tiptrans balance, you have the option of using PayPal or a bank transfer. Just a heads up—these payments aren’t instant, so there might be a short wait for the funds to appear in your account. For beginners, using PayPal is the easiest and fastest method, with a minimum top-up amount of $10. Bank transfers work too, but they may take a bit longer to process. A 5% handling fee applies to cover online payment costs, so keep that in mind when adding funds.
Package arrival in warehouse
When a package arrives at your Tiptrans address and gets checked into their warehouse, you’ll get an email alert. The email even includes a photo of your package, so you can get a quick look at what’s been received. Once logged into your account, you can see all the package details right in the dashboard.
There’s an initial $10 check-in fee for the first package, but after that, there usually aren’t any additional check-in fees. It’s a convenient setup because you’re always in the loop about what’s coming in, making it easy to manage and track your packages.
Mail fee $-10
Received package fee $-5.00
If your account didn’t have any funds before, your balance will show as negative now. Just a heads-up: only regular mail will trigger a Mail Fee; this doesn’t apply to packages or parcels. So, you won’t need to worry about extra charges on packages—you’ll just see that fee if it’s regular mail arriving.
Make sure to set your address carefully when you sign up, since changing it later isn’t very easy. You’ll have to fill out a contact form to update it, and you can only make changes once every six months.
If you ever need to send a package to a different address, you can use their Drop Shipping service for $3 under “Special Request.” This setup keeps things streamlined, but it’s good to plan ahead so you’re not stuck needing address changes too often!
Forwarding packages to your country
When forwarding packages to China, you’ll need to fill in some key details:
- Content Description: Make sure to describe the contents accurately to avoid any customs issues.
- Carrier: Select your preferred shipping carrier for the package.
- Insurance: Adding insurance will cost a bit extra, but it’s worth it if you want compensation in case anything goes missing.
Once you’ve entered all the information, just hit “Shipping” and Tiptrans will take care of the rest. They’re pretty efficient—usually, your package is shipped within one business day. You’ll also get a tracking number in your dashboard so you can check the delivery status anytime.
