As a GLS Parcel Shop, do I have to announce my possible schedule changes?2022-01-03T15:06:37+00:00

Yes! It is very important that you do this. At GLS, we publish the latest shop data on our website via the Parcel Shop search engine. The recipients or customers of GLS can consult the details of your premises and have access to the opening hours of your business.

It is also very important that you let us know when your business closes for the holidays, so that we can stop delivering parcels to you a few days before you close and GLS recipients and customers have updated information.

You can notify us of these changes by e-mailing glsparcelshop@gls-spain.es.

Answer your doubts about making shipments and picking up parcels into GLS Parcel Shops.

I want to return a parcel delivered to me by GLS. What should I do?2022-01-03T14:56:36+00:00

You should contact the supplier who sold you the goods and ask for them to be returned. The supplier will give you instructions for the item’s correct return and, if it is via one of the convenience points in our GLS Parcel Shop network, you will receive an e-mail with a QR code. With this code, you can drop the item off at any collection point in our extensive network in Spain.

Remember that the parcel must be protected and fully packed, including your name and address on the wrapping.

I need to pick up a parcel at a GLS Parcel Shop collection point but I can’t go. What should I do?2022-01-03T14:55:34+00:00

In order for another person to pick up a shipment on your behalf, you must fill in this authorisation and give it to the person you authorise to pick up your parcel along with a photocopy of your ID/NIE/Passport. With these documents, we will proceed to deliver the parcel to the authorised person at the selected GLS Parcel Shop collection point.
