How this estimate is chosen

Parcelsline uses the rules in force on the arrival date you enter, not today’s date. Confirmed charges are added to the total. A possible charge, such as Italy’s €2 from 1 January 2027, is shown and kept out of the total. A carrier fee with no verified figure is labelled unverified and is not added.

Example, EU, arrival on or after 1 November 2026: a €10 parcel with three different item types owes €3 duty on each type (€9) plus the €2 handling fee on each type (€6). That is €15 before VAT. Two identical pens are one item type. A parcel arriving in Italy in December 2026 does not add Italy’s own €2. From January 2027 that €2 is possible only.
