As of July 1, 2021, all parcels sent from outside the European Union are subject to mandatory declaration, regardless of type of parcel or cost.
If a parcel costs 0-150 euros, the goods are subject to sales tax. The basis of taxation is the customs value which is cost of goods + cost of delivery. If the value of the parcel exceeds 150 euros, the shipment is subject to declaration and import taxes - duty, turnover tax, excise duty on excisable goods.
If the parcel is sent as a gift from a private person to a private person, it is only taxed if the value of the gift exceeds 45 euros. Please note it is necessary to declare gifts from 0 euros.
You can declare a shipment either electronically, on the post office website of the destination country, or by contacting the post office directly. The cost of declaring is different for each country.
