ColisExpat receives your Amazon purchases and forwards them at your house in Italy.
Amazon is undoubtedly one of the world’s leading e-commerce companies. Today, the brand operates across the globe with marketplaces tailored to each country. Amazon Italy (amazon.it), for example, stands out for its catalog rich in local products and attractive prices.
However, living in Italy doesn’t mean you have to limit your online shopping to local options. Like many Italian consumers, you can access products unavailable locally, compare prices, and take advantage of deals specific to certain markets by shopping on international Amazon marketplaces.
Ordering from the American, British, or French versions of Amazon while living in Italy can still be complex, even when international shipping is available. This is exactly where ColisExpat comes in—a company specialized in international package forwarding.
Why explore international Amazon platforms from Italy?
While Amazon.it offers a wide range of products, foreign versions of the site (outside Italy) are full of unique items and often better pricing opportunities.
Buy products unavailable on Amazon Italy (amazon.it)
Ordering from a foreign Amazon marketplace while living in Italy gives you access to many exclusive opportunities, such as:
- Electronics and high-tech products launched first in Asian and American markets,
- Books, DVDs, and music albums in French,
- Limited editions of books, manga, or video games available in Japan,
- Specialized brands distributed only in Germany,
- Clothing and fashion accessories from your favorite French brands.
Whether you’re a shopping enthusiast, a collector, or a reseller, this international access is a real advantage.
Compare prices to optimize your shopping budget
Buying from an international Amazon site while living in Italy can also help you find great deals. Price differences between Amazon marketplaces can sometimes be significant.
These price variations are explained by several factors:
- Currency fluctuations,
- Local sales periods,
- National promotional campaigns,
- Pricing strategies adapted to the local cost of living.
By carefully comparing offers across different Amazon versions, you can find especially attractive deals. In some cases, buying from an international Amazon site is more cost-effective from Italy, even after factoring in international shipping fees and potential taxes.
What are the barriers to international Amazon shopping from Italy?
It is entirely possible to shop on any foreign version of Amazon (France, Germany, United States) from Italy. However, you may encounter certain obstacles that can complicate your shopping experience, especially regarding delivery and customs fees.
Delivery limited to domestic territories
Many sellers on Amazon restrict their shipments to their domestic market or a specific geographic area (Europe, Asia, North America, etc.). You may come across notices such as “Shipping within the US only” or “Delivery within France only.”
In other words, these geographic restrictions prevent direct shipping of certain products to Italy.
High shipping costs
When delivery to Italy is available, shipping fees are often high, especially for heavy or bulky packages. The final purchase price can therefore discourage some buyers.
Taxes and customs procedures
If you order from an Amazon platform based outside the European Union, you will generally have to pay customs duties in Italy. Although these are often calculated and displayed before checkout, payment may still be required when the package enters Italian territory.
Beyond the additional cost, customs procedures can be complex and may result in your package being held at customs for an undetermined period.

Our advice tailored to your situation
I live IN ITALY, I want to buy pants on an English site and books on a Spanish site. No Problem ! I have them delivered to one of my transit addresses provided by ColisExpat.
Once my purchases are delivered to ColisExpat, I choose the repackaging option to reduce the volume of the parcel and thus save, I then request that they be delivered to me IN ITALY.
I live IN ISRAEL And I want to buy several items on several American sites.. No Problem ! ColisExpat provides me with an address in the USA and I get delivered there. When I ask that my purchases be forwarded, I choose to group them in order to pay less (A large package is cheaper to ship than two small).
I then request delivery by USPS Express, at my place IN ISRAEL.
Still have a doubt?
We accept payment options via Visa, Mastercard, and PayPal.
Please note that PayPal offers the option to pay in four installments at no additional cost, provided that your payment method is French.
It’s thanks to the recipient reference included in your ColisExpat transit address. Example of a transit address:
In France
Michel Dupont
CXP0021632
110bis, Avenue du Général Leclerc
Niv.1 Bat.7
93500 PANTIN

Make sure to provide the complete ColisExpat address (including the recipient reference) when placing an order on the merchant’s website. You can find it when you log in on the account summary page.
Yes, we can consolidate shipments of your parcels to reduce forwarding costs (maximum of 10 parcels per consolidation).
If you place multiple orders and wish to benefit from this service, simply notify us in your Customer Space under the ‘Your Parcels’ section. First, select all the parcels you want to consolidate and then click on the ‘Calculate my delivery fees’ button.
Please note that consolidation may not be possible for any weight or dimension. The actual weight of your parcel should not exceed 30kg, and its dimensions should remain reasonable. In general, most shipping specialists will accept a maximum dimension of 150cm and a sum of ‘Length + Width + Height’ of less than 200cm.
The weight of the box used for consolidation is added to the sum of the weights of the parcels in the consolidation for the calculation of forwarding fees.
You have the option to repack your parcels in the case of consolidation to reduce their volume. This option is only available when the Volumetric Weight rule applies. You can approve the repackaging request when paying the forwarding fees (or you can opt for automatic repackaging request in your Customer Space, under ‘My account’). We then make every effort to repackage the items in the consolidation into a smaller repackaging box.
Sealed parcels, technological products, or those labeled as ‘Fragile’ are excluded from repackaging.
In the case of successful repackaging, a discount will be calculated based on the savings achieved and will be valid for future forwardings. This discount will be equal to 50% of the difference between the shipping rates before and after repackaging. It will be valid for one year from its creation date.
We await your approval before proceeding with the forwarding of a single parcel or multiple parcels you have requested to consolidate.
If you approve your forwarding request before 7:030 AM (CET), the parcel will be forwarded on the same day if it is a business day.
