How to Use the Bangladesh Post Office EMS Rate Calculator

Sending parcels or documents internationally from Bangladesh requires understanding the rate structure of the Express Mail Service (EMS). While the official Bangladesh Post Office EMS Rate Calculator PDF provides comprehensive charts, this digital tool simplifies the process by allowing you to instantly estimate your shipping costs based on the current zoning logic.

Understanding the Inputs

  1. Destination Country: Select the country where you are sending the package. Rates are categorized by zones (e.g., SAARC countries like India have lower rates compared to Zone D countries like the USA).
  2. Item Type: Choose between "Document" and "Merchandise". Documents generally have a slightly lower base rate than merchandise parcels due to easier customs clearance procedures.
  3. Weight (Grams): Enter the total weight of your package in grams. EMS rates are typically calculated in 500-gram increments. For example, a 600g package is charged at the 1kg (1000g) rate.

How the Calculation Works

The calculation logic mimics the official Bangladesh Post Office structure:

  • Base Rate: There is a fixed charge for the first 500 grams depending on the destination zone.
  • Step Rate: For every additional 500 grams (or fraction thereof), an additional fee is added.
  • VAT: A standard 15% VAT is applied to the subtotal to comply with Bangladesh government tax regulations.

Important Guidelines for EMS

  • Maximum Weight: Most EMS destinations accept packages up to 20kg, though some countries allow up to 30kg.
  • Dimensions: The length of the package usually should not exceed 1.5 meters, and the length + girth should not exceed 3 meters.
  • Prohibited Items: Do not attempt to ship currency, perishable foods, liquids, jewelry, or dangerous goods (batteries, flammable items).

Note: This calculator provides an estimate based on standard zonal rates. For the absolute final price, including potential insurance or fuel surcharges, please visit your nearest General Post Office (GPO) in Dhaka or your local district head post office.
