Ukrposhta introduced new weight categories for international parcels with discounts – service primarily targets Ukrainian businesses selling on global marketplaces like Etsy and Amazon, the company wrote on Feb. 5.
To support these exporters, Ukrposhta has launched the Small Package Prime rate, which enables delivery to 74 countries worldwide.
Senders now have access to additional weight categories: 0–100g, 500–750g, and 750g–1kg.
“This means not only greater flexibility for shippers but also reduced costs, as Ukrposhta lowers starting rates for lightweight parcels by up to 15%,” the company wrote.
“For instance, shipping a small 100g package to the U.S. now costs around 270 UAH (7.29 USD), while delivery to European countries starts at 250 UAH (6.75 USD), which in some cases competes with domestic shipping rates in Ukraine.”
For regular customers — both corporate and individual — loyalty programs remain in place alongside the new competitive international shipping rates.

Ukrposhta signed an agreement with Royal Mail UK, allowing Ukrainian businesses to ship products to one of their key export markets with a 15% discount.
As a member of the Universal Postal Union, Ukrposhta offers delivery services to over 230 countries and territories worldwide. Its partner network includes over 660,000 postal offices serving 5.3 million postal workers.
