Sweden customs add tax to non-EU e-commerce items

Start from March 1st, 2018, all non-EU countries import e-commerce packages, the Swedish Customs decided to implement a non-threshold tax policy, the recipient must pay VAT and service fees without threshold. Sorry for all the inconveniences.Thank you for your understanding.

The service fee is around 75 sek. You also pay a handling fee of around 35 sek. This is true even if the items in your packsge cost only 1 sek. They also include the cost of shipping when they look at how much you paid to tax you. My recommendation is to buy many items at once and mail in only one box. The tax and fees are usually at least 100 per package, but estimate that you will need to pay 30% of the declared worth on the package/invoice.

ok wow thank you
