GLS is a Royal Mail subsidiary. It may have been sent to the Western Europe Hub for onward transmission to the national hubs etc.

I know there is one in Germany for Eastern Europe.

Therefore unless there is an issue with Customs (Safety, Security and Legal checks not tax) it shouldn't be a problem.
