On a recent trip to Douro valley in northern Portugal we purchased two boxes of wine & port - 6 bottles in each box. We paid 40 euro for shipping to Ireland (courier). Has anyone any idea how much duty will need to be paid when the wine arrives in ireland?
Link here suggest 3.19 per bottle of wine + 23% VAT
I've had at least 20 boxes of wine (6 to 12 bottles) delivered to me over the last 5 years from various countries in Europe. I've yet to have a shipment stopped or confiscated. So, hopefully you get the same luck!
I had alcohol stopped by customs, it was coming via PMotel.
I contacted customs, asked how much, and they said that they would forego any charge this one time.
But I would have to travel to the pm depot in finglas to collect it.
