To send ham to someone else, start with where and when they will receive it. Choosing a whole piece or several packs is only part of the purchase: check service to the exact address and coordinate receipt too. This guide helps organise those details without turning a desired date into a delivery promise.
Confirm country and postcode, format and preparation, available transport and receipt. Slicing preparation and the parcel’s journey are different stages; neither alone gives the total delivery time.
Check the address before finalising the selection
Note country, postcode and full address; distinguish billing from delivery details. Consult the destination in the European ham guide and check options for that address before paying. A country appearing in a guide or selector does not confirm service for every product or address. If options are missing or details conflict, ask Paco before ordering.
Separate preparation, transport and possible formalities
Check the selected presentation: whole piece, machine slicing or knife slicing, depending on the reference. If preparation is needed, confirm that time as well as transport; dispatch does not mean arrival. Where import requirements apply, confirm product admission, documents and possible charges with the shop and relevant authority. Personal luggage rules do not by themselves authorise a commercial shipment.

Confirm the recipient will be available and able to store the food according to its label. For a celebration, communicate date and venue before buying and request an estimate for the exact order, allowing for preparation, transport and days without service. Extra margin helps planning but does not turn an estimate into a guarantee. Check which box, card or accessories the listing actually includes; a presentation photograph does not add them to an order.
The selection follows the Jamones Paco Heredia catalogue. Editorial photographs illustrate formats; check the collection for current products and their details.
Review the order and arrange receipt
Before payment, check products, variant or slicing, quantities, address and total including applicable charges. Keep the confirmation and use tracking when available. On receipt, check the parcel and follow storage directions; document any issue and contact the shop. Compare ham and shoulder packs or Spanish ham. If carrying it yourself, see the guide to travelling with ham.
