    There are no additional taxes

  • Parcel cost: €45-150

    VAT: 21% of the shipment cost For example: the item costs €100. The recipient needs to pay additional VAT: €100 x 21% = €21

Calculation example

The goods cost €200. The total customs payments will be:

  • 1
    import duty = (€200 - €150) × 10% = €5
  • 2
    VAT = (€200 - €150 + €5) × 20% = €11

Total tax charged: €5 + €11 = €16
