Sending Parcels Abroad With Globex
FastEx Globex is the international air courier service of FastEx, the courier brand of Daewoo Express. People and businesses in Pakistan use it to send documents, samples and gifts abroad.
Sending a parcel abroad is stricter than sending one within Pakistan. It must pass security checks and customs, so the paperwork has to be right.

FastEx Globex Prices: Weight and Size
The price depends on the country and your parcel. FastEx compares the real weight with the size weight:
How Size Weight Is Worked Out
Size Weight (kg) = (Length × Width × Height in centimetres) / 5,000
If the size weight is higher than the real weight, you pay for the size weight. You can check the price for your route in advance with the official price checker at fastex.pk/tariff/.
Papers You Need for International Parcels
Every Globex booking needs:
1. Sender Identity Verification
You must come to the booking center in person with your original CNIC or passport.
2. Commercial Invoice or Packing Declaration
Bring four signed copies of the commercial invoice or packing declaration. List each item, how many there are, their value and where they were made. Vague words like “household items” or “samples” can cause problems at customs.
3. Insurance for Valuable Goods
For goods worth more than PKR 100,000, you must pay for transit insurance costing 2% of the invoice value.
Items You Cannot Send by Air
Some items cannot be sent. FastEx publishes its list of prohibited items in its terms and conditions. Items like sprays, perfumes, loose batteries, cash, precious metals and food that can go off are usually not allowed by air. See the full guide in our FastEx prohibited items guide.
