eBay UK Launches International Shipping Service, Allowing Sellers to Fulfill Cross-Border Orders by Shipping Domestically

As of August 13, eBay UK will roll out its "eBay International Shipping" service in phases starting this August, gradually replacing the existing Global Shipping Program. This service shifts the cross-border fulfillment model from seller-managed to platform-fulfilled: sellers only need to send items to an eBay processing center within the UK, and the platform will handle all subsequent steps including international transportation, customs clearance, tax calculation, and last-mile delivery. Meanwhile, the service will waive international fees for cross-border transactions, helping sellers reach more than 136 million buyers across 195 global markets. Full migration of the program is expected to be completed in December. For small and medium-sized sellers as well as individual sellers, the new fulfillment model reduces the complexity of cross-border operations through the "domestic shipping + platform fulfillment" approach, and is particularly suitable for high-value small items and long-tail listings going global.
