Have you ever wanted to order something from the Xbox store and have it delivered to Aruba? 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 Aruba, 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 Aruba. Best of all, it’s really inexpensive to do.
How to Deliver Items from the Xbox Online Store to Aruba
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!
If you look around online, you’ll find a bunch of companies in the U.S. offering physical United States addresses to customers located overseas.
These companies provide addresses for this specific use case, and they’ll even help ship your packages directly to you.
This type of service is called Freight Forwarding.
You simply register an account with a Freight Forwarder, and they’ll provide you with a U.S. based address.
You then use this address for your deliveries, and they’ll automatically forward them to your home country.
With so many Freight Forwarders out there, it can be difficult to know where to start. The best that we have found is called MyUS.
They are trustworthy, won’t break the bank and they do not charge any additional taxes, so you won’t be caught out by extra fees. This isn’t always the case with every Freight Forwarder.
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 Aruba 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 Aruba.
Another great benefit of MyUS is that they’ll actually consolidate multiple packages into one single shipment before sending it to Aruba.
By using these Freight Forwarding services, you can order things from the U.S. as if you were a resident!
