Good morning! I'm expecting two packages from the US. One package arrived directly in Germany, the second is going to Germany via Switzerland (for whatever reason). If the packages don't end up at customs and are delivered directly to me by DHL, do I have to pay import sales tax at the door? Customs is…
Hello. I would like to order a chain from abroad (America). It costs 39.95€. My question now is how it will work with customs? How do I know how much I still have to pay? Will the money simply be deducted from my account, or what? And could something go wrong and I get into…
Question above. Or do I have to pay customs duties?
Good morning, I want to buy a masturbator from Aliexpress, but I'm worried that the shipping label won't tell me which item is inside. Does anyone know if that's stated on packages from Aliexpress? As far as I know, everything gets opened by customs and then has to be repackaged.
I ordered something on eBay worth €48.76 from the UK. Postage cost €18.52. How is customs calculated, just the value of the goods or the value of the goods plus postage? And what do you think the probability is that it will end up at customs and have to be picked up there? These are…

Hello everyone. I ordered something from SHEIN. I have two orders. I chose express shipping and received an email from FedEx for both orders asking me to approve customs clearance. I've ordered 20-30 times now and have never received an email like this. What could this be, why, and how long will it take after…
Hello, I bought two pairs of shoes from Rogue and Wolf for €148. Shipping included, it was €150. The company is based in the UK and, according to their own statements, manufactures and ships from several countries. Now I'm worried I'll have to pay customs duties. Unfortunately, I completely forgot about this when ordering. Does…
Hi guys, my package from Poland has a very strange shipping process. For the past two days, it's been stuck at the same location. Is it possible that it got stuck at customs, or can I still expect my package? Best regards
Hello dear people, I would like to send a package from Nepal to Germany. I've read that if the value of the goods is €45, you don't have to pay any customs duties, but anything above that will incur a 17% surcharge. Furthermore, it's not the price you paid in Nepal that counts, but the…
I recently placed an order there and received a message saying there were updates for me. When I checked, I read the text above. Should I be worried, or does it happen to everyone? Or, better yet, does anyone have experience with it?
