Taxes & Customs Duties
Delivery inside the European Union
Will I have to pay import VAT, customs duties or additional fees?
This depends on the destination country, the value of the shipment and the applicable shipping and customs procedures.
EU orders with a goods value up to €150
For eligible orders shipped to customers within the European Union, VAT is included in the selling price and collected at checkout under the applicable import VAT arrangements.
From 1 July 2026, the EU also applies a temporary customs duty to qualifying low-value e-commerce imports. This duty is calculated according to the customs classification of the goods rather than simply per physical product. Where supported by the selected shipping route, applicable customs-related costs are handled through our logistics partners as part of the shipping and customs-clearance process.
Customers are therefore not normally required to pay import VAT separately upon delivery for eligible EU orders up to €150.
For the most predictable total cost and delivery experience, we recommend keeping EU orders at €150 or less.
The intrinsic value is the value of the goods themselves, excluding VAT. This value determines whether a shipment falls within or above the €150 IOSS threshold.
TrendsToLife checks this automatically in your cart:
- 🟢 Within the IOSS threshold: VAT is included in the price. A green notification is shown.
- 🔴 Above the IOSS threshold: VAT is removed at checkout and the prices are automatically updated to exclude VAT. A red notification is shown. The recipient pays import VAT upon import, and customs or clearance fees may also apply.
Because the €150 threshold is assessed excluding VAT, the VAT-inclusive cart total can be higher than €150 and still remain within the IOSS threshold.
EU orders over €150
The IOSS import VAT scheme does not apply to consignments with a value above €150.
For these orders, import VAT is not included in the selling price. The recipient is responsible for paying the applicable import VAT upon import and may also be charged customs duties, customs-clearance fees and carrier handling fees.
The exact amount depends on the destination country, product classification, shipment value and customs assessment.
Important: The €150 threshold applies to the relevant shipment/consignment under customs rules. Orders should not be artificially divided solely for the purpose of avoiding applicable taxes or customs charges.
| Country | Standard VAT | Import and customs clearance information |
| Netherlands | 21% | PostNL – customs clearance charges |
| Belgium | 21% | bpost – customs and import charges |
| Czechia | 21% | Česká pošta – customs clearance |
| Ireland | 23% | An Post – customs charges |
| Italy | 22% | Poste Italiane – receiving parcels from abroad |
| Lithuania | 21% | Lietuvos paštas – import declarations |
