Photo books delivered across Europe shipping included.
MakeAlbum ships its 300 × 300 mm layflat hardcover photo book to 25 EU countries with standard tracked shipping included in the price. The book is printed in Germany by our print partner Saal Digital; production typically takes 4–6 business days after you approve, and delivery inside the EU another 2–4.
Ordering from an EU address
Prices are in euro, from €199 for 26 pages to €349 for 80, and include standard tracked shipping to every country in the table below. No VAT is added (Portuguese small-business exemption, art. 53.º CIVA), so the price shown in the editor is the amount charged, and inside the EU there are no customs or import duties on delivery.
Express delivery (1–2 business days in transit instead of 2–4) is an optional extra at checkout. The countries below are the ones the checkout address form accepts today; Switzerland, Norway and the United Kingdom are not on the list yet.

How it works, in three steps
Upload, edit, approve
Upload your photos, let the AI build the chapters, edit any spread and approve. Payment by card through Stripe happens at approval; nothing is charged before.
Printed in Germany
We render print-ready PDFs and send them to Saal Digital in Germany, who print and bind the 300 × 300 mm layflat hardcover. Production typically takes 4–6 business days.
Delivered to your door
The book ships tracked from Germany, typically 2–4 business days in transit inside the EU. You get the tracking link by email when it leaves the printer; plan on roughly 6–10 working days door to door in total.

How long does delivery inside the EU take?
Production typically takes 4–6 business days after you approve the album, and tracked shipping from Germany a further 2–4 business days, so plan on roughly 6–10 working days door to door. These are typical ranges, not guarantees; you get a tracking link by email when the book ships.
Is shipping included in the price?
Yes. Standard tracked shipping to every EU country on the list is included in the per-page price, from €199 for 26 pages. No VAT or import duties are added for delivery inside the EU.
Do you deliver outside the EU?
To the United States, by DHL Express with prices set in dollars. The United Kingdom, Canada and Latin America are next; choose your region in the menu at the top of any page to hear when they open. Questions about an address: info@makealbum.com.
