Target international shipping ended in February 2020, and Target.com now delivers only to US addresses. Target also says it doesn’t ship to international freight forwarders. Below is what the policy says, what Target charges for shipping inside the US, and how Global Shopaholics gets Target products to you in Canada, India, the UK, Australia or the Gulf.
The short answer
No. Target used a partner called Borderfree to ship abroad until 1 February 2020, then stopped. Its help pages now say Target doesn’t ship to addresses outside the United States or to international freight forwarders. It does ship to APO, FPO and DPO military addresses by standard mail, with some product restrictions.
If you’re outside the US, our Assisted Purchase team can buy from Target for you, then consolidate it with your other US orders and ship it worldwide.
Target international shipping policy in plain terms
Target’s international shipping help article covers it in a few lines. Here’s what it means in practice.
- 50 US states: Yes.
- APO/FPO/DPO military addresses: Yes, standard mail, some items excluded.
- International freight forwarders: No, per Target’s help pages.
- Canada, India, UK, Australia, Europe, Middle East, Asia, Africa: No.
Target can cancel orders it identifies as going to a forwarder. Some stores limit delivery to forwarding addresses like this. When that happens, our Assisted Purchase team can place the order for you, and Target’s own checkout decides whether it’s accepted.
Does Target ship to Canada?
No. Target closed its Canadian stores in 2015 and Target.com doesn’t accept Canadian delivery addresses. Canadians who want something from Target can ask our Assisted Purchase team to buy it and ship it across the border. The CBSA guide to mail imports covers duty and tax. There’s no Target shipping to Canada policy, official or otherwise: Target’s shipping policy only covers US addresses.
Target international shipping to India, the UK and Europe
India
India is the single biggest source of Target international shipping searches we see. Target doesn’t ship there and has no Indian online store. Target does run a large technology and operations centre in Bengaluru, which may be why the brand is so well known in India, but that office doesn’t sell to the public. Our Assisted Purchase team can buy Target products for you and ship them to India. There’s no Target international shipping India policy or official India page, because Target simply doesn’t ship there.
United Kingdom
Target doesn’t ship to the UK and has never had UK stores. UK shoppers who get Target products through our Assisted Purchase team pay VAT and sometimes duty on arrival; GOV.UK explains the thresholds.
Germany, France, Spain, Poland and the rest of Europe
Same answer across the EU: no direct shipping and no forwarders, so our Assisted Purchase team is the route. EU countries charge VAT on all imports regardless of value, so even small US orders will have tax added.
Does Target USA ship to Australia?
No. There is a Target in Australia, but it’s a completely separate company owned by Wesfarmers, with its own range and website at target.com.au. It isn’t connected to Target in the US, and US orders can’t be collected or returned there. For imports from other US stores, the Australian Border Force buying online page explains GST on low-value goods.
Malaysia, the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Africa
Target doesn’t ship to Malaysia, the Gulf or anywhere in Africa. In Saudi Arabia, imports from any US store are taxed by ZATCA. See our Saudi Arabia, UAE and Angola pages for what shipping from the US looks like there.
Target shipping in the US: cost, free shipping and carriers
If you have family in the US or you’re visiting, these are Target’s current home delivery terms from its ship-to-home help page.
- Standard shipping, order $35+: Free.
- Standard shipping with a Target Circle Card: Free, no minimum.
- Standard shipping under $35: $5.99.
- Target Circle 360 membership: $99 a year, includes free same-day delivery on eligible orders.
How to get free shipping at Target
Spend $35 or more on eligible items, or pay with a Target Circle Card. Some bulky items always carry a delivery charge, and the $35 threshold counts only eligible items, so the basket total and the qualifying total can differ.
Who does Target ship with?
Target ships many orders straight from its stores as well as from distribution centres, and uses several parcel carriers depending on size and location. Same-day orders go through Target’s own delivery service, Shipt. The carrier appears in your tracking email once the order leaves.
How to get Target products abroad with Global Shopaholics
Send our Assisted Purchase team the Target.com links. We quote the total, buy the items for you, and ship them on once they reach our Delaware warehouse. That includes Target’s own labels, such as Cat and Jack or Threshold, which aren’t sold anywhere else, as well as LEGO, Stanley cups, Owala bottles, beauty brands and baby gear. In effect, you get the Target worldwide shipping that Target itself doesn’t offer.
You can also order the same brands yourself from US stores that deliver to your US address and combine them with your Target items. Our guides to Amazon international shipping and Walmart international shipping explain how.
How the process works
Step 1: Sign up for your free US address
Create a free account and get a US address in New Castle, Delaware, a tax-free US address.
Step 2: Let our team place the Target order
Ask our Assisted Purchase team to buy from Target for you, or order yourself from stores that deliver to your US address, with your suite number on address line 2.
Shipping availability is checked on the Target product page.
The items are added to the cart.
Checkout starts from the cart.
Our US address and suite number go in as the delivery address.
The payment method is chosen.
Step 3: We log and store your parcels
Your parcels are stored free for up to 30 days. A paid plan extends storage up to 210 days.
Step 4: Combine your parcels
Combine them with package consolidation and ask us to remove excess packaging.
Step 5: Choose a carrier and ship
Choose DHL, FedEx, UPS or USPS depending on your country. Processing takes 4–5 working days.
Step 6: Add insurance
Add insurance from $10, up to 2% of the declared value.
Check prices with the shipping calculator and see how it works. Our package forwarding service page has the full list of what we can and can’t ship. Country pages: UK and Australia.
Returns
For orders from stores that ship to us, we can send faulty or wrong items back to the US seller for $15, which is usually far cheaper than returning from abroad. The seller’s return window starts on US delivery, so ask us quickly.
