The €3 customs duty per item
Since 1 July 2026 the EU charges €3 customs duty per item in a parcel worth up to €150. Goods with the same tariff code are one item.
How many digits of the code count depends on the declaration: 6 on H7, 8 on H6, and 10 on a full H1 declaration, where origin and description also separate items.
Check the code before you file it
This page shows the lines of the tariff and what leads to each. It is not a ruling: a binding one, called a BTI, comes only from a customs authority. Compare the official text with your product, and look the code up in the EU's TARIC database. You are responsible for the code on your declaration.
