NEW YORK, Sept. 30, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Easyship, the global shipping software and API platform, has expanded its export infrastructure behind eBay International Shipping to the United Kingdom, marking a significant step in the company's growth strategy. This move follows the platform's initial launch in the United States in 2022 and its expansion to Canada in 2025, underscoring the increasing demand for international shipping services among eBay sellers.
With this expansion, eBay sellers can now ship to over 195 countries and territories at rates up to 30% lower than the existing Global Shipping Programme. The new service is powered by Easyship's fulfillment infrastructure in the UK, Canada, and the United States, ensuring that every parcel is cleared for export efficiently. This development removes a common barrier for small businesses and online sellers, many of whom previously opted out of cross-border sales due to the complexity of international shipping.
The new service streamlines the export process, handling critical tasks such as customs documentation, duty and tax calculation, international delivery, and carrier rate management. According to Easyship, the export infrastructure is designed to manage millions of parcels, ensuring compliance and reliability across a fragmented carrier network. The platform's automated screening and multi-carrier routing capabilities mean that each shipment is processed within a few hours, providing sellers with a seamless experience.
For UK merchants, this expansion is particularly significant. It simplifies the process of exporting goods, making it more accessible for small businesses and individual sellers. Previously, many UK merchants faced the challenge of navigating the complexities of international shipping, which often led them to limit their sales to domestic markets. Now, with Easyship's support, these sellers can tap into a broader international customer base.
The new service is part of eBay International Shipping, which is now open to both private and business sellers. Sellers can ship domestically to a UK hub, where Easyship handles all subsequent steps. This includes customs documentation, duty and tax calculation, international delivery, and carrier rate management. Importantly, there are no extra international selling fees, and the buyer reach has expanded from 105 to 195+ countries and territories. Enrolment is automatic, and sellers are notified through the eBay Seller Centre.
The rate savings for UK sellers are substantial, with up to 30% lower rates compared to the existing Global Shipping Programme. This is particularly beneficial for sellers shipping items up to 3kg across the top 10 shipping lanes in the UK.
Easyship, founded in 2014, is a leading global shipping platform trusted by over 100,000 eCommerce merchants. The company provides instant access to 550+ courier services, discounts of up to 91% off retail rates, real-time tax and duty calculations for 200+ countries and territories, and smart automation that accelerates fulfillment by up to 5X. Available as both a no-code shipping app and enterprise-grade API, Easyship enables businesses of all sizes to compare rates and carriers, display transparent calculated rates at checkout, protect profits with shipping insurance, and reduce "Where Is My Order?" inquiries by up to 63% with branded tracking and post-purchase updates.
