EU Fees Incoming Parcels
Starting November 1, the European Union will impose a €1 handling fee on all incoming parcels, regardless of their value, to curb the influx of low-cost imports and cover processing and customs-inspection costs. The fee will be added to a €3 customs duty on parcels worth less than €150, which took effect in July and will remain in place temporarily until 2028. Platforms, sellers or shipping companies will pay the handling fee, with 75% of the proceeds going to the EU budget and 25% to member states. The number of incoming small parcels fell by 60% between July and September, but around 5 million parcels still enter EU markets each day.
