Worked import-cost example

This illustration uses €1,000.00 of goods, €75.00 shipping and €25.00 insurance. The illustration treats goods, shipping and insurance to the EU border as the planning customs value.

Effect of the evidenced MFN line on the example shipment
Scenario Rate Duty Import tax Illustrative total
Evidenced base rate 0% €0.00 Use member-state rate Duty-only total shown below

Goods, shipping, insurance and duty total €1,100.00 before destination import VAT.

Tax limitation: No single EU import VAT rate exists. The worked total therefore stops at duty; use the rate and rules of the member state of import.

What are you importing?

You will need the product, the country you are importing into, where the goods are from, the goods value, and any shipping or insurance costs you want included.

Shipment value

Most duty is a percentage of value. Some products use weight, quantity or volume; those parts are shown as not priced until the required unit can be calculated.

How this was worked out

Duty basis: loading duty data.

VAT/GST basis: loading VAT/GST data

Extra duties are included only where the available data matches this product and route.

Choose a product row

Estimate only. Duty and VAT/GST are calculated where the available rate data supports it; unpriced fees, exemptions, quotas, or eligibility rules can still change the final customs bill.
