Walmart does ship internationally now, but only a little. Walmart.com started shipping eligible items to Mexico in 2026, and some marketplace items can go to Canada. If you live in the UK, India, Australia, Saudi Arabia, the UAE or almost anywhere else, the checkout still won’t accept your address. Below is what Walmart’s international shipping policy actually says, which countries it covers, and how shoppers outside those two countries get Walmart orders delivered.
The short answer
Walmart.com’s direct international shipping is limited to eligible items going to Mexico and, for some marketplace products, Canada. Duties and taxes are estimated and collected at checkout. Everything else on the site ships to US addresses only, including APO/FPO military addresses.
To buy from Walmart from another country, you order to a US address and have it forwarded. That’s what our package forwarding service is for. Walmart ships to our Delaware warehouse like any other US order, and we send it on to you.
Walmart’s international shipping policy, in plain terms
Walmart publishes International Shipping Terms of Use, last updated in February 2026. A few points are worth knowing before you order:
You become the importer of record. Ownership and risk pass to you once the parcel is handed to the carrier in the US. You pay shipping, import duties, taxes and any clearance fees, and Walmart may estimate and collect those at checkout. Parcels can be opened by customs. And Walmart can refuse or cancel an order that breaks export or sanctions rules.
Not every item qualifies even for the countries Walmart serves. Food, supplements, cosmetics, baby products, toys, hazardous goods, oversized items and very expensive products are commonly left out. If the product page doesn’t offer delivery to your address, the item isn’t eligible.
Which countries does Walmart ship to?
- United States, including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico: Yes.
- APO/FPO/DPO military addresses: Yes, eligible items, usually with slower value shipping.
- Mexico: Yes, eligible items, duties shown at checkout.
- Canada: Some eligible marketplace items only.
- UK, EU, Australia, India, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Africa and elsewhere: No, use a US forwarding address.
Walmart has said more countries will follow, so it’s worth trying your address at checkout every so often. For now, the list is short.
Does Walmart ship to the UK?
No. Walmart sold Asda years ago and doesn’t run a UK store, and Walmart won’t deliver to a UK address from Walmart.com. UK shoppers send orders to a US address instead. Expect UK VAT and, above £135, possibly customs duty; the UK government’s guide to tax and duty on goods sent from abroad explains the rules. Our UK shipping page has the options.
Does Walmart ship to Australia?
No, and there’s no Walmart store in Australia either, which is why “is there a Walmart in Australia” comes up so often. Order to a US address and have it forwarded. GST applies to imported goods; the Australian Border Force sets out the import rules. See our Australia page.
Walmart international shipping to India
Walmart owns Flipkart in India, but there’s no Walmart international shipping to India from Walmart.com, whatever some search results suggest. Walmart’s international shipping policy simply doesn’t cover India, so there’s no official India route for US orders. Shoppers in India use a US forwarding address and pay Indian customs duty on arrival.
Walmart in Dubai, the UAE and Saudi Arabia
Walmart has no stores in the Gulf and doesn’t deliver there. Plenty of our customers in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dubai and Abu Dhabi buy from Walmart through a US address, often bundling it with orders from other American shops. See our pages for Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
How much is shipping on Walmart, and how long does it take?
Inside the US, items sold by Walmart usually ship free on orders of $35 or more, and Walmart+ members get free shipping without the minimum. Smaller orders pay a delivery fee, shown at checkout. Many items arrive in one to three days, though marketplace sellers set their own speeds. Items with freight charges, personalised products and some marketplace listings aren’t included in free shipping.
For a forwarded order, you add two things: the US leg to our warehouse (often free once you pass $35) and the international leg from us to you. You can price the second part before you buy with our shipping calculator. We process parcels in 4–5 working days, then transit depends on the carrier and country you pick.
What shipping company does Walmart use?
It depends on the item and the seller. Walmart uses FedEx, UPS and USPS, regional carriers, and its own delivery network for local orders. Marketplace sellers choose their own carrier. You can’t pick, but the shipping email gives you the carrier and a tracking number. For Mexico and Canada, international carriers take over the cross-border leg and handle customs.
Buying from Walmart with a US address
This works for any country we ship to, and it gets you the whole of Walmart.com rather than the slice that’s eligible for export.
Step 1: Sign up for your free US address
Sign up for free and you get a US address at our warehouse in New Castle, Delaware, with your own suite number. Delaware has no sales tax, so it works as a tax-free US address.
Step 2: Check out on Walmart with our address
At Walmart checkout, add that address and put the suite number in address line 2. If a card from your country isn’t accepted, our assisted purchase team can buy it for you.
Add your items to the cart on walmart.com.
Open the cart and continue to checkout.
Enter your Global Shopaholics address, with your suite number in address line 2, at checkout.
Step 3: We log and store your parcels
Walmart often splits one order into several boxes, especially when marketplace sellers are involved. Each box shows up in your account as it arrives. Storage is free for up to 30 days, so there’s time for the rest to land. Paid plans give you up to 210 days.
Step 4: Combine your parcels
Ask us to consolidate the boxes into one, and to remove the packaging if you want a smaller parcel.
Step 5: Choose a carrier and ship
Pick DHL, FedEx, UPS or USPS, depending on your country, and pay. We process the shipment in 4–5 working days and send you the tracking.
Insurance is optional: a minimum of $10, up to 2% of the declared value. If something’s wrong and it’s still with us, we can return it to the US seller for $15. The how it works page has the full process.

- Other US stores. Walmart direct: No. Through Global Shopaholics: Yes, in the same parcel.
A few things to check before you order
Look at who the seller is. “Sold and shipped by Walmart” items behave predictably, while marketplace items ship separately, sometimes from the other side of the US, and take longer to reach us. Heavy, bulky items like furniture, TVs and garden equipment can cost more to ship abroad than they cost to buy, so price them first. Some things can’t go by air at all, such as aerosols, flammable liquids and loose lithium batteries, and your country may ban others. Our FAQs cover restricted items.
Many of our customers shop several US stores at once. If you’re comparing prices, our guides to Amazon, Target and Costco explain how each store handles overseas orders.
Tracking a Walmart order
Use the tracking link in Walmart’s shipping email or your Walmart account to follow the US leg. If Walmart says delivered, the parcel will appear in your Global Shopaholics account once it’s checked in at the warehouse. After we ship it, you get a new international tracking number for the rest of the journey.
Frequently asked questions

What is Walmart’s international shipping policy?
