Episode Details

Starting July 1, every package entering the EU from outside will face a new three euro charge—aimed at protecting local businesses and cutting down on cheap, unsafe imports. With nearly six billion low-value parcels arriving last year, shoppers may soon pay more for their online buys. Hidden fees could stack up: VAT on the full price, plus delivery handling charges like An Post’s €6.95. Sellers may pass these costs on, but smaller ones might not—meaning you could pay upfront before receiving your goods. And beware: returns won’t refund customs or handling fees. Shop smart, check origins, and brace for higher prices.
