Will the Rabbit R2 reach German early adopters before the official EU release?

The Momentum Behind the Rabbit R2 AI Pocket Companion

Does the Rabbit R2 represent the most significant leap in personal AI hardware since the smartphone? Following its high-profile debut at CES 2026, the second-generation device has generated substantial demand globally. With its refined Large Action Model (LAM) and improved battery life, it has become the must-have gadget of the year. However, as of February 2026, the manufacturer is prioritizing North American fulfillment, leaving enthusiasts in Germany facing a long wait for local distribution.

More about shipping to Germany

For those who value being first, waiting for a domestic European release is not a viable strategy. The most efficient path to ownership involves purchasing directly from the United States. To execute this effectively, savvy shoppers utilize a parcel forwarding service to bridge the gap between US inventory and their doorstep in Germany.

Why US Stores Restrict Direct International Orders

Why do many US-based retailers make it difficult for international customers to purchase high-demand electronics? Even when a product is available online, major retailers often implement strict shipping policies. These stores frequently refuse to ship directly to international addresses due to complex logistics and regional distribution agreements. Furthermore, many of these platforms are programmed to identify and cancel orders that use non-US billing information or addresses associated with high-volume exporters.

The BuyForMe Solution for Restricted US Stores

A common obstacle for German buyers is that major US stores—such as Apple, Nike, or Sephora—regularly block international credit cards or decline orders sent to logistics hubs. This can lead to immediate order cancellations and frustrating payment holds. The safest way to guarantee your order is processed is through the comGateway "BuyForMe" service.

Under this assisted purchase program, comGateway acts as your US-based agent. We purchase the Rabbit R2 on your behalf using a domestic US credit card and a verified local billing address. This effectively bypasses the automated filters that typically flag international transactions. By utilizing this service, you ensure that your Rabbit R2 is secured at the moment of launch without the risk of merchant rejection.

Securing a Tax-Free US Address for German Delivery

When you shop US store locations, the cost of domestic sales tax can add an unnecessary 7% to 10% to your total. By using comGateway, you gain access to a tax-free US address in Oregon. This allows you to avoid US sales tax entirely, keeping your initial purchase price as low as possible.

Once your Rabbit R2 arrives at our warehouse, you can use our international shipping service to forward the package to Germany. This method provides a level of control and transparency that direct retail shipping rarely offers. You can forward packages with confidence, knowing each item is handled with professional care.

Managing German Import Tax and Customs Duties

Is it possible to accurately predict the total cost of importing electronics into the EU? When shipping to Germany, you must account for the 19% Einfuhrumsatzsteuer (Import VAT) and potential import tax on items exceeding certain value thresholds. Proper documentation is essential to avoid delays at the German customs border.

Check our guide on import duties to understand how customs tax is calculated for high-end electronics. Being prepared for these costs ensures a smooth transition through Frankfurt or Leipzig hubs, preventing your new AI companion from being held in storage. For a precise breakdown of the logistical costs, you should use a shipping calculator to estimate shipping cost before the package leaves the US.

Optimizing Delivery Speed to Germany

Speed is the primary objective for early adopters. After your Rabbit R2 is received at your US suite, the priority shifts to transit time. Selecting a premium international shipping partner ensures that your device moves quickly through the global network. Most shipments to major German cities like Berlin or Hamburg arrive within 3 to 5 business days once dispatched from our facility.

By combining the BuyForMe service with our specialized package forwarding infrastructure, you eliminate the barriers that typically stall international tech enthusiasts. This professional logistics framework is the most reliable method to secure the Rabbit R2 AI Pocket Companion in 2026, ensuring you stay ahead of the curve in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.
