New customs rules
On 1 July 2026, the EU introduced new customs regulations that affect the price of goods purchased from online shops outside the EU. Previously, shipments with a total value of up to EUR 150 were exempt from customs duties. Under the new rules, customs duties must be paid on all shipments from countries outside the EU.
This means that you must pay a fixed customs duty of EUR 3 per item type when the total value of the shipment is below EUR 150.
