Send a package from France to Algeria with a traveler

Kimia helps you search for a traveler who has published a compatible route between France and Algeria, then organize the exchange directly.

Updated on September 19, 2026

Quick answer

A France–Algeria package entrusted to a traveler must be opened and described precisely before acceptance. The traveler then checks customs, company rules and the necessary supporting documents: a CN22 or CN23 postal form is not automatically sufficient for accompanied baggage.

The steps with Kimia

  • Find a route that matches your city and dates.
  • View the information available on the profile and ad.
  • Describe each item precisely before the guest accepts.
  • Agree on weight, discount, recovery and compensation.
  • Check customs and air rules together before departure.

What the traveler should know

The traveler must know exactly what he is carrying. An opaque package, already closed or vaguely described should be refused. For a valuable item, a medicine or a regulated commodity, bring the appropriate documents and ask for confirmation from the competent authorities.

Customs between France and Algeria

Algeria is outside the European Union. The nature, quantity, value and purpose of the goods may result in formalities. Forms CN22 or CN23 concern postal shipments and do not constitute an automatic response for a package carried in a traveler's luggage.

Airplane: cabin and hold do not follow the same rules

External batteries, spare batteries and electronic cigarettes must not be placed in the hold. Liquids in the cabin are regulated. An airline may apply additional restrictions.

Medicines

France Diplomatie recommends, for personal treatment to Algeria, to keep medicines in their original packaging with their labels and a prescription using their international common name. Entrusting medications intended for another person requires increased caution and prior verification with the authorities.

What Kimia guarantees and does not guarantee

Kimia makes it easy to get in touch. The platform does not guarantee the presence of a journey on a given date and does not replace customs, the airline, or legal advice.
