From January 1, 2020, the duty-free limit for the price will be 200 euros, and for the weight-31 kg per 1 parcel. If you reach this limit in value or weight, you will have to pay a fee of 15% of the excess value of the goods, but not less than 2 euros per 1 kg of weight in excess of the value or weight norm.
At the same time, if in 2019 the limit of 500 euros was applied to all parcels within a month, then in 2020 the limit applies to 1 parcel. Thus, you can order 10 packages for 200 euros without duty.
There is also a weight limit of 1 item — an undivided item of more than 31 kg is not allowed to be processed, and it will not be sent from our warehouse. You can send 2 items of 30 kg, but you can't send 1 item weighing 60 kg. There are no restrictions on the cost of the product. Source:

1. If the cost and weight of your one order is 600 euros and 2 kg, the customs will charge the duty according to the following formula:
600 euros - 200 euros = 400 euros * 15 % = 60 euros
2. If the weight of all your orders for the month is 34 kg, the customs will charge the duty according to the following formula:
34 kg - 31 kg = 3 kg * 2 euro\kg = 6 euro
In this case, there was an excess in the duty-free weight, but there was no excess in the value of the goods.
3. If the cost and weight of your order is 1200 euros and 34 kg, the customs will charge the duty according to the following formula:
1200 euro - 200 euro = 1000 euro * 15 % = 150 euro
34 kg - 31 kg = 3 kg * 2 euro\kg = 6 euro.
Since in this case both the duty-free cost and the weight are exceeded, the customs will issue an invoice for the highest indicator, i.e. for 150 euros.
We remind you that from August 1, 2020. the rate of the fee for performing customs operations in respect of goods for personal use imported with the payment of customs duty is 500 rubles.
Also, when delivering parcels not from the euro zone, we advise you not to collect consolidation parcels close to the limit of 200 euros, since with a sharp fluctuation in the cross-rate of the dollar \ zloty\dirhams\baht\euros and so on, at the time of arrival of the cargo from the United States or any other non-European country at the customs office in Moscow, your parcel may cost 201 euros or 203 euros and then you will be charged a small fee + a fee of 500 rubles for processing such a parcel. It is best to have 10-20 euros in stock for such a case and collect parcels up to 180-190 euros.
