How is this sentence put together grammatically?

It has two main parts:

• Idhini ya kuchukua kifurushi = the subject noun phrase

  • idhini = authorization / permission
  • ya kuchukua = for taking / for picking up
  • kifurushi = package / parcel

• ina muda wa mwisho wa uwasilishaji = the predicate

  • ina = has
  • muda wa mwisho = deadline / final time limit
  • wa uwasilishaji = of delivery / submission

So the structure is basically:

[authorization for picking up the package] + [has a delivery/submission deadline]

Why is there no word for the or a in the sentence?

Because Swahili normally does not use articles the way English does.

So:

• idhini can mean authorization, an authorization, or the authorization
• kifurushi can mean package, a package, or the package

The exact meaning depends on context. This is very normal in Swahili.
