Does Target Ship Internationally? How to Shop Target US from Abroad

Target does not ship internationally. Target.com only delivers to addresses in the United States, so shoppers in Australia, Canada, the UK, the Netherlands and everywhere else cannot check out with a home address. Target also does not ship orders that shoppers place themselves to package forwarding addresses. The way that works is a personal shopper: you send the product links, the order is placed in the US, and the parcel is shipped on to you.

This guide covers what Target sells, which countries ask about it most, how ordering through our Personal Shopper works, and what it costs to get a Target order home.

Does Target Ship Internationally?

No. Target.com ships to US addresses only, and there is no international checkout. If you enter a foreign address, the order cannot be placed. Target also has no international website that sells the same range.

A US forwarding address on its own does not solve this. Target does not ship orders placed with a package forwarding address, so if you check out on Target.com yourself with your Forwardme address, the order will not be shipped. Use our Personal Shopper service instead: you send the links, our team places the order, and the items arrive at our warehouse for you.

Does Target Ship to Australia?

No. Target US does not ship to Australia. The Target stores and website in Australia belong to a separate company owned by Wesfarmers. It shares the name but sells a different range, so US Target products, owned brands and exclusives are not available there. Australians buy through a personal shopper and have the parcel forwarded. Above AUD 1,000, customs duty and 10% GST are paid at the border; lower-value goods follow different GST rules, so check the item in the duty calculator first.

Does Target Ship to Canada?

No. Target closed its Canadian stores in 2015 and Target.com does not ship to Canada. Canadians buy through a personal shopper instead. Courier parcels from the US get Canada's CUSMA thresholds: up to CAD 40, no duty or tax; from CAD 40 to CAD 150, no duty but GST or HST applies; above CAD 150, duty and tax can both apply.

Does Target Ship to the UK?

No. UK shoppers also buy through a personal shopper. UK VAT at 20% applies to almost all imports. Parcels worth £135 or less currently pay no customs duty; above £135, duty may apply depending on the item.

Does Target Ship to the Netherlands and the Rest of Europe?

No. There are no Target stores in Europe, and Target.com does not deliver there. In the Netherlands and the rest of the EU, import VAT applies from the first euro, and since July 1, 2026, parcels worth €150 or less also pay a flat €3 customs duty per item type.

Are There Target Stores Outside the US?

No. Target operates only in the United States. It left Canada in 2015, and the Target chain in Australia is an unrelated business. If you want Target's own brands, the US website is the only place to buy them, and from abroad that means ordering through a personal shopper.

What is Target?

Target is one of the biggest and most loved retail stores in the United States. Think of it as a giant supermarket where you can find almost everything you need in one place. From clothes and shoes to electronics, home goods, toys, beauty products, and even groceries, Target has it all. People love shopping at Target because it offers good products at affordable prices. Plus, Target is known for its trendy and stylish items, making it a go-to store for fashion lovers and bargain hunters alike.

Much of what international shoppers look for at Target is its own brands, which are not sold anywhere else: Cat & Jack for kids, Threshold and Hearth & Hand with Magnolia for the home, Universal Thread and Wild Fable for clothing, and Up&Up for everyday essentials. Target also runs limited designer collaborations and store exclusives that sell out fast.

How Forwardme Makes International Shopping Easy

You might be wondering, "How can I shop from Target if I don't live in the US?" or more specifically, "Does Target ship to the UK, Canada or Australia?"

That's where Forwardme comes in. Target does not ship orders that you place yourself to a forwarding address, so our Personal Shopper team buys the items for you and we ship them from our US warehouse.

1. Get a Free US Address: When you sign up with Forwardme, you get a free US address at our warehouse in Delaware. Every account also gets an Istanbul address for Turkish stores.
2. Send Your Target Links: Pick your items on Target.com and send the product links to our Personal Shopper team. We place the order and pay for it, and Target delivers to our warehouse.
3. Forwardme Ships to You: When your order arrives, we send box and label photos, and you choose a carrier from live quotes. Our discounted courier rates are up to 80% below the carriers' standard prices. Forwardme ships to over 220 countries, including Canada, Australia, Saudi Arabia, the UK, Germany, Singapore, and the Netherlands.

Step-by-Step Guide to Shopping from Target with Forwardme

Ready to start shopping? Here's how it works:

1. Sign Up with Forwardme: Create a free account. Your US address is ready right away.
2. Choose Your Products on Target.com: Browse Target and copy the links of the items you want, with the size, color and quantity. Within the US, Target ships orders of $35 or more for free; smaller orders pay a $5.99 shipping fee.
3. Send a Personal Shopper Request: Do not check out on Target.com yourself: Target does not ship orders placed with a forwarding address. Send the links through our Personal Shopper page instead, and our team places the order for you.
4. Wait for Your Package to Arrive at Forwardme: Target ships the order to our warehouse. You get a notification with box and label photos when each package arrives. Content photos are included on every plan, including Free.
5. Combine and Choose Your Shipping Option: If you have several orders, ask us to consolidate them into one box. Then pick a carrier from live quotes in your dashboard.
6. Receive Your Package: Track the parcel from your dashboard until it reaches your door.

You can use your Forwardme address directly on most other US stores. Target is the exception, which is why Target orders go through the Personal Shopper.

Tips for a Smooth Shopping Experience

To make your international shopping experience even better, here are a few tips:

• Check Product Restrictions: Some items, like certain foods, aerosols or batteries, can't be shipped to every country. Check them in the restrictions lookup before you buy.
• Estimate the Full Cost: Use the shipping calculator for the international leg and the duty calculator for duty and tax in your country.
• Use Free Storage to Combine Orders: Packages are stored free for 15 days on the Free plan, 45 days on Premium and 120 days on VIP, so you can collect several Target orders and ship once.
• Plan for Holidays: If you're shopping for Christmas or Eid, order early. Carriers are slower in peak season. Our Black Friday guide covers the 2026 sale dates.
• Look for Sales: Keep an eye on Target's Top Deals and Clearance pages to get the best prices.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Here are some common questions people have about shopping from Target with Forwardme:

• How long does shipping take? Target's own delivery to the warehouse usually takes a few business days. The international leg depends on the carrier you pick and your destination, and your quote shows the options before you pay.
• Can I use my Forwardme address on Target.com myself? No. Target does not ship orders placed with a package forwarding address. Send the links to our Personal Shopper team instead and we place the order.
• Does Target accept international credit cards? Target's payment help page lists credit cards from foreign banks as accepted online, but the forwarding address is the real blocker. With the Personal Shopper, the order is paid in the US, so your card is not an issue.
• Are there any products I can't ship? Yes, some items like perishable foods or hazardous materials can't be shipped internationally. Check the restrictions lookup for your country.
• How much does shipping cost? Shipping costs depend on the size and weight of your package and your location. Get a quote with the shipping calculator before you ship.
• Will I have to pay customs fees? Depending on your country's rules, you may pay duty or taxes when your package arrives. Forwardme does not pay these for you. Estimate them with the duty calculator, and read our customs and import taxes guide.
• Can I combine Target orders with other US stores? Yes. Target orders bought through the Personal Shopper and orders from Amazon, Walmart and other US stores can go into one box. Orders from our Turkey warehouse ship separately.
