Use this when you're shopping online from a store based in a Spanish-speaking country and want to know if they'll send the item to your home country. It's also useful if you see an item you like in a physical store and want to inquire about international shipping options.
Alternatives
- ¿Envían a otros países?Slightly more direct, focusing on 'other countries'.
- ¿Mandas paquetes al extranjero?More casual, using 'mandas' and 'paquetes' (packages).
Ways to get it wrong
Confusing 'envíos' with 'envidias'
'Envíos' means shipments, while 'envidias' means envy; they sound similar but have very different meanings.
Using 'mandar' incorrectly
'Mandar' can mean 'to send', but using it with 'ustedes' (plural you) requires 'mandan', not 'mandas' (which is for 'tú').
A small cultural note
Many online stores in Latin America are increasingly offering international shipping, but it's always best to confirm.
