Please consult "3. Product categories unsupported by the Advanced Logistics Program" in this article for a complete list of unsupported product categories.
Merchants should properly declare special or sensitive products in WishPost. In addition, when packaging sensitive products, please ensure safety during various processes from warehouses to destinations, including transportation, customs clearance, and customers unpacking.

6. Tax-related information
Starting July 1, 2021, VAT exemption for the import of goods into the EU less than or equal to €22 Euro has been abolished. As a result, all goods imported into Finland will be subject to VAT.
7. How to remove Finland-bound Advanced Logistics Program orders from the program and ship them from warehouses outside of Mainland China?
To help merchants ship their Finland-bound orders from their warehouses outside Mainland China with reduced delivery time and improved customer experience, merchants may remove certain Finland-bound orders from the Advanced Logistics Program directly in Merchant Dashboard, and ship these orders from their warehouses outside Mainland China to ensure faster delivery time.
Specifically, merchants may choose to remove a Finland-bound order from the Advanced Logistics Program and ship it from their warehouses outside Mainland China by first clicking "Remove from A+ Program" in the "Actions" drop down menu, agreeing to the popup modal descriptions that follow, and then selecting a non-Mainland China “Origin Country/Region” in Merchant Dashboard for these orders:
Note that shipping these types of orders is subject to requirements in Merchant Policy 5.8: For these types of merchant-removed Advanced Logistics Program orders, merchants are required to ship them with one of the Qualified Confirmed Delivery Shipping Carriers that provides tracking with delivery confirmation (last-mile tracking). As such, merchants must also comply with the confirmed delivery timeline requirements outlined in Merchant Policy 5.4 and Merchant Policy 7.5 for these orders.
If these types of orders have been found to be shipped from warehouses within Mainland China, merchants will be penalized $100* per noncompliant order.
If you have more questions about the Advanced Logistics Program for Finland-bound orders, please do not hesitate to contact WishPost Customer Services, and we will respond to you as soon as possible.
