    Hi
    I ordered some items from Singapore to the value of €70.64.

    The tracking is now showing

    Has this package been stopped in customs?

    If so does anyone have any idea how much extra this will cost?

    Thanks

    Vat plus processing charge (vat on delivery charges too).
    So about €23(or more if delivery charge is extra)

    I have never had a subsequent charge from an post, only couriers. If you just got a letter saying to collect it then there is probably no charge, I have always been given notification of a charge if there was one. So fingers crossed.

    Just collected it there from the PO and there was no mention of extra charges.

    Im hoping I could have been lucky here!!

    I had to pay up before An Post even delivered,so I'd say you're grand!

    They usually won't give you your package until you pay the customs fee so I would say your ok.
