strange, because before giving you the link I did try it out, and I could log in and buy one (though I stopped at entering my credit card details) - I wonder whether it has anything to do with their site being currently offline? Maybe you could try again in a little while, to see if it works.
EDIT: from the (cached) Kobo site

If you send a Kobo gift card or an eGift card to someone in a different area of the world, the Kobo Store will apply an exchange rate when your recipient claims your gift.
For example, if you bought an eGift card for $50 Canadian dollars and sent it to someone in Switzerland, they would get an equivalent value in Swiss Francs. The exact amount will vary depending on the exchange rate on the day they claim or use the Kobo gift or eGift card.

so it looks like with their e-gift cards there is no problem in sending them to people outside the UK.
