UPS has announced the launch of ups Global Checkout, a new service that makes it even easier for consumers around the world to buy online from shippers around the world.
Until now, international purchases often arrived with an unpleasant surprise - an additional bill for unpaid import costs, reports London's Air Cargo Week.
UPS Global Checkout solves that problem by guaranteeing upfront the amount online shoppers pay in duties, fees and taxes, and eliminating the frustration of unexpected costs at delivery.
UPS is the only global integrated carrier to offer a guaranteed landed cost solution for international shipping that is seamlessly incorporated into its shipping technology, transforming the shopping experience and offering complete transparency on costs.

Available in 43 origin countries and delivering to more than 200 destinations worldwide, the service helps businesses of all sizes grow globally by streamlining international shipping.
'With UPS Global Checkout, we're making international shopping around the world as easy as buying in-store,' said Kate Gutmann, executive vice president and president of International, Healthcare and Supply Chain Solutions at UPS.
'Online shoppers can now enjoy full transparency and peace of mind with no surprises, knowing what they pay at checkout is the total cost for a cross-border purchase. This, combined with our total UPS premium delivery experience, benefits our customers - the retailers - by helping to drive additional sales. Given trade shifts around the world, expanding growth opportunities in new markets can now be seamless.'
