1. Introduction

When goods are imported into, or received in Ireland, from a country outside the European Community (EC) they are liable to import charges (Customs Duty, Anti-Dumping, Countervailing and Excise Duties where applicable and VAT) at the point of importation. However, in certain cases relief from import charges arises because :

* the amount of import charges is small and is not collected below certain levels (see paragraph 2);
* the item being imported is of negligible value (see paragraph 3); or
* the goods are gifts which are consigned to a private individual living in Ireland (see paragraph 4).

This Guide outlines the relief available, how it may be obtained and the procedures which apply in order to obtain it.

It is important to note that there are separate reliefs available for travellers who wish to import goods with them on return from abroad and these differ from those described below. Full details of reliefs for travellers are set out in the Information leaflet for Travellers arriving in Ireland from non-EC Countries who are importing goods purchased for personal use.

2. Non-collection of Small Amounts of Import Charges

Where the customs duty on a consignment of goods amounts to less than €10 it will not be collected. Similarly, VAT liability amounting to less than or equal to €6 will not be collected. No similar rule applies in the case of excise duty which will always be collected if the goods are liable to excise duty.

3. Consignments of Negligible Value

Consignments not exceeding an intrinsic value of €150 may be imported without payment of Customs Duty, while consignments not exceeding a total value of €22 may be imported without payment of VAT. (Intrinsic value is the value of the goods alone, and does not include insurance and freight.) However, it should be noted in particular that there is no relief (from Customs Duty, VAT or Excise duty) under this negligible value provision for importations of tobacco, tobacco products, alcohol products, perfumes or toilet waters irrespective of their value.
