Forwarding bol.com orders to the United Kingdom
For Dutch and Flemish people in the United Kingdom, bol.com is the quickest way to get Dutch books, Sinterklaas and Christmas presents, Dutch board games and brands from home. Its delivery pages describe the Netherlands and Belgium only, so a British address does not get you past checkout. Order to your Dutch address at DZH instead: we receive the parcels, check them, bundle several orders into one shipment and send it across the Channel. Since Brexit every parcel from the Netherlands is an import: UK VAT applies from the first pound and duty only above GBP 135, so we declare the contents correctly and keep the box as compact as possible.
You know the price before you order. No subscription, no minimum term.

Frequently asked questions
Does bol.com ship to the UK?
bol.com's delivery pages only cover the Netherlands and Belgium; the United Kingdom is not listed there. Use your Dutch address at DZH with your customer code instead. We receive the order, photograph it and forward it to any UK address with the carrier you pick.
What do I pay in UK VAT and duty on a bol.com parcel?
UK VAT is charged from the first pound of value. Up to GBP 135 there is no duty; above that amount duty applies as well, depending on the product. The carrier collects these charges before or at delivery. We declare the real purchase value with a correct description of the goods.

Yes. Request the return at bol.com, use our address as the sender and upload the return label with the parcel in My DZH; we pass it on to the carrier. Sending it back from the UK to the Netherlands is at your cost and takes time, so check bol.com's return window before you ship.
