EU Customs Changes: What the New €3 Duty Means for Your Shipments
From 1 July 2026, the EU is introducing a flat €3 customs duty on individual items valued under €150, shipped from outside the EU. Crucially, the charge applies per product type within a parcel — not per parcel. Send a package containing a shirt, a phone case and a book, and you're looking at €9 in duty, not €3.
What you need to know:
Ship before 1 July 2026 to avoid the new charges on eligible consignments
Shipments over €150 are not subject to this flat levy — but will still need to pay standard customs duty rates
Private gifts between individuals valued under €45 remain exempt — find out more about customs & VAT
Business senders should use Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) at checkout — this settles all duties upfront so your recipient receives their parcel without unexpected charges at the door
For businesses and eCommerce sellers shipping regularly to EU customers, the per-item duty structure means costs can stack up quickly. Using DDP keeps the delivery experience smooth for your customers and reduces the risk of parcels being held at customs due to unpaid charges.

What Are the General Product Safety Regulations (GPSR)?
The General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) came into effect on 13 December 2024, introducing updated product safety requirements for goods sold or shipped to the EU and Northern Ireland (NI).
If you're a UK business or online seller sending parcels internationally, the regulations may apply to your shipment. One of the main requirements is appointing a Responsible Person based in the EU or NI to oversee product compliance and safety. Products and packaging may also need to meet updated GPSR labelling requirements before they can be placed on the market.
Checking whether your goods comply with GPSR before booking international delivery can help avoid delays, returns or customs issues.
