    Will be moved to the general thread but I'd estimate around 25% so ~200 to 250 USD.

    I've ordered something from Taiwan (PC Components).

    Received a letter by post at home,i had to email them a copy of the receipt and ref number. Next day,an email arrived in Inbox:

    Thank you for your email. Customs Charges of €15.05 are due on your package (€9.05 VAT plus €6 post office handling fee). Your expected day of delivery is xx April. The charges can be paid to the postperson on delivery by cash or cheque/postal order made payable to“ An Post”. If you are not in when An Post call, they will leave a note in your letterbox advising where to collect your parcel and pay the charges.
    Any queries or questions relating to the delivery of your package should be directed to An Post Customer Service at 1850 575859.



    Cost me 57$,paid 10E taxes and 6E postage (despite being FREE post charges from Taiwan to Dublin - 6E for 6 miles).


    Also,if the goods are valued over 22E customes charges are being charged.So,under 22e OR declared Gifts,no charges at all...

    The limit on items marked gift is €45, and only if it is a genuine gift.
