USA Orders — Duties & Fees

USA Orders — Duties & Fees (from 29 Aug 2025 - USA entry date)

From 29 August 2025, the United States charges duties on all parcels from the European Union. For our products, you should expect:

  • Import duty: 15% of the goods value.
  • Processing fee (MPF): informal entry (most parcels up to $2,500): $2.62 per shipment in September 2025; from 1 Oct 2025: $2.69. Couriers may also add a small advancement/brokerage fee.

These charges are collected by the delivery company on behalf of U.S. Customs. Prices on our website do not include U.S. duties or fees.

Example: If your order total for goods is $200, estimated duty is $30 (15%), plus MPF $2.62 (September 2025) — total $32.62 — and possibly a small carrier brokerage/advancement fee. From 1 Oct 2025, MPF becomes $2.69.

Good to know

  • Who collects the money? DHL/UPS/FedEx/USPS at delivery or before release from customs.
  • What is the duty base? The value of the goods (shipping cost is typically not part of the duty base).
  • When does it start? For parcels entered into the U.S. customs system on/after 29 Aug 2025.

We’re sorry for the inconvenience — this is mandated by the current U.S.–EU customs arrangement, and we have no control over these government charges.
