Announcement reposted from Amazon Europe:
From July 1, 2026, the current duty exemption for low-value imports will be eliminated. For goods imported in a shipment with a value of €150 or less, a €3 customs duty, mandated under EU law, will apply per item/tariff line in the customs declaration.
This duty will apply to Fulfilled by Amazon (FBA) and Fulfilled by Merchant (FBM) customer shipments shipped directly from outside the EU to consumers in the EU. For more information, go to Regulation (EU) 2026/382.
Shipments sent from within the EU to customers in the EU are not subject to this import duty (other import charges may still apply).
Fulfilled by Merchant customer shipments
To ensure customs clearance for FBM shipments sent to customers in the EU from outside the EU, you must:
- Use an Amazon-approved carrier . To confirm your FBM shipment with a value of €150 or less, you must select a carrier authorised to use Amazon’s Import One-Stop Shop (IOSS) number to clear customs. We’ll add approved carriers in the coming weeks and continue to update the list after 1 July.
- Supply your carrier with ASIN details for each product in the shipment with a value of €150 or less imported under IOSS, as well as Amazon’s IOSS number. The authorised carrier will invoice you for applicable import duties and provide the duty to EU customs authorities.
- Continue to ship FBM shipments Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) so that customers do not receive additional import duties, customs or tax charges after completing their purchase. You must also provide your carrier with all data and documents required for customs clearance.
We’re updating our programme policy to reflect these new requirements. We recommend that you review your prices before 1 July and make any adjustments you deem necessary.
Fulfilled by Amazon customer shipments
If your products are enrolled in Remote Fulfilment with FBA, we’ll add the €3 import duty to the customer-facing price for items in customer shipments with a value of €150 or less and then calculate VAT as per the existing rules. As a result, the price that customers see for your Remote Fulfilment with FBA products in our EU stores may be higher than the price that you’ve set.
If you use pricing rules or automations, we recommend that you review them and make any adjustments that you deem necessary, taking into account the €3 import duty added on top of your set price.
Note: All Seller Central pages, including Manage All Inventory, will show your price without the import duty and any applicable VAT. Starting from July 1, you can view the final sales price of your Remote Fulfilment with FBA ASINs using the Revenue Calculator.
