Baggage
Eurostar loves your luggage
When you travel with Eurostar, you don’t usually need to check your luggage in. Each passenger can take up to 2 medium-sized items (85cm at their maximum length) with them on board, plus 1 small item of hand luggage. What’s more, provided none of your items are longer than 85cm at their longest length, there aren’t any weight restrictions. Of course, we do still need to make sure there is enough room for everybody’s bags, so if you bring more than the allowance mentioned above, you may need to pay an excess luggage charge of £15 per item.
Registered baggage
If you are travelling with additional items of baggage as well as large or bulky items such as trunks, bicycles etc or sporting and collectors’ weapons or knives, it is necessary to register these items. You can do this at London St Pancras International, Paris Gare du Nord, Brussels Midi/Zuid or Lille Europe. Please also see the full list of prohibited items.
This service applies only between London – Paris, London – Brussels and London – Lille in both directions and applies to no other Eurostar destination or beyond those stations listed above.
Your baggage will be forwarded on the next available departure, space permitting. However, our guarantee is that your baggage will be available to collect at your Eurostar destination station within 24 hours after registration.
This service also allows you to send your baggage in advance of your journey and then it will be ready to collect when you arrive at your Eurostar destination. However, you may still register your baggage shortly before your departure but please note there is a 30 minute check-in requirement prior to departure.

Group Luggage
Are you travelling in a group and concerned about the amount of luggage you are taking? Or are you simply travelling on business and have more than your recommended luggage allowance? (Two items of luggage, one piece of hand luggage).
If either of the above applies and you are planning to travel to London, Paris or Brussels by Eurostar, we can certainly assist with your luggage requirements.
We are here to help tour groups of any size including:
- groups
- film crews
- orchestras
- parties travelling with conference materials
- sporting groups (golfing, shooting parties etc…)
- cyclists
..or simply those with excessive amounts of luggage.
