Have you ever wanted to order something from the Xbox store and have it delivered to Afghanistan? Have you ever wondered whether that’s possible?
Is it possible? The answer is… no. But kind of. Allow me to explain.
Xbox won’t ship any items to Afghanistan, or anywhere else outside of the U.S. for that matter.
But there’s a fairly straightforward workaround to get any item sold on the Xbox online store delivered to Afghanistan. Best of all, it’s really inexpensive to do.
How to Deliver Items from the Xbox Online Store to Afghanistan
To ship internationally, Xbox requires you to have a physical address in the United States. It is there that you will be expected to receive your order.
The good news is that you do not need to live in the United States, or even have relatives or friends that do, for this process to work!
This isn’t widely known, but there are businesses in the USA which have been set up purely to assist consumers with their international shopping.
They are called Freight Forwarders. When you sign up to use their services, they will allocate you a USA address that you can send your US-based deliveries too.
The Freight Forwarder which we would strongly recommend is called MyUS. They are reliable, affordable and unlike other Freight Forwarders, they do not charge extra taxes.
We’ve worked with MyUS several times, and have shipped multiple packages using their service.
You can order from any US-based company and have that company ship your order to your MyUS address. It doesn’t matter that you actually live in Afghanistan or some other international location. All that matters is that you have a US-based address.

Once MyUS receives your package from Xbox, they’ll ship it straight to Afghanistan.
Another great benefit of MyUS is that they’ll actually consolidate multiple packages into one single shipment before sending it to Afghanistan.
By using these Freight Forwarding services, you can order things from the U.S. as if you were a resident!
