Customs formalities to send a package to Scotland
As Scotland is no longer part of the European Union, you will now face stricter regulations when shipping to the UK. Only Northern Ireland is exempt from the customs requirements of the rest of the UK.
Northern Ireland benefits from the same customs regulations as the rest of the European Union.
From now on, whether you are sending from a country that is part of the European Union or not, you will have to complete the same administrative procedures as for an international shipment.

Mailing history of Scotland
The history of the Scottish Post Office begins in Edinburgh in 1693, with the establishment of a postal service linking the major cities of the country. Independent until 1801, the Scottish Post Office was unified (as well as its postal rates) with that of England at this date.
In 1839, a 4 pence mark (the "Fourpenny Rate", a prepaid envelope) was issued before the price drop triggered by the massive printing of the "Penny Black" (an extremely inexpensive penny stamp for the time) which democratized the sending of mail throughout the British crown.
