Shipping Products Containing Lithium Batteries
Under aviation safety regulations (IATA), lithium batteries are classified as materials with a risk of fire or explosion, so there are restrictions on how they can be shipped.
Korea Post EMS — Cannot Be Shipped
Any product with an installed lithium battery cannot be shipped via Korea Post EMS. During air X-ray screening, such items are classified as materials restricted from loading, and they are denied passage.
Express Couriers (DHL · FedEx · UPS, etc.) — Shipping Possible with Conditions
Electronic products with a built-in lithium battery can be shipped via express couriers. However, the following items are restricted even with express couriers:
- Products with a high-capacity lithium battery over 100Wh (e-bikes, electric scooters, etc.)
- Spare power banks that are not installed in a device (cannot be shipped on their own)
- Mobile phones
※ Please check before shipping
Common electronics with a built-in lithium battery, such as beauty devices, laptops, and Bluetooth devices, can be shipped via express couriers. If you are unsure of the battery capacity, please contact the seller before shipping.

Customs Clearance Information
All parcels shipped from Korea may be subject to customs inspection by local customs authorities after arriving in the destination country, and the procedure may vary depending on the judgment of the customs officer in charge. EasyPost cannot directly intervene in local customs matters, and we kindly ask for your understanding that the final authority over customs clearance rests with the local customs agency.
- Korea Post EMS — If a customs issue occurs, we are unable to coordinate with the carrier on your behalf, and the recipient must communicate directly with local customs.
- Express couriers (DHL · FedEx · UPS, etc.) — If a customs issue occurs, we will work with the carrier to provide guidance and any necessary support.
※ Please check country-specific shipping conditions before shipping
To ensure smooth delivery, before purchasing and shipping, please be sure to check the Korea Post EMS shipping conditions by country to confirm that there are no restrictions on the items you are sending.
