Customs & Compliance
13.04.2026
The new €3 EU customs duty starts in July 2026, but most sellers misunderstand who actually pays it and when. The answer depends entirely on whether you use IOSS. In this breakdown, we show two operational scenarios that lead to very different outcomes for conversion, delivery success and returns. For UK sellers shipping to the EU, the real decision is not about the duty itself, but how you structure pricing, checkout and return flows. This is where €3 turns into €15 problems.
Customs & Compliance
13.04.2026
From July 2026, every parcel shipped from the UK to the EU carries a €3 customs duty. Most sellers know they’re paying it — but very few understand what happens when the product is returned. This article breaks down when the duty is refundable, how the process works in practice, and why most sellers never recover it. We also show the real numbers behind return volumes and explain when it actually makes financial sense to act.
Customs & Compliance

From June 19, 2026, every online store in the EU must implement a clear and easy-to-use withdrawal button. EU Directive 2023/2673 eliminates dark patterns and requires a transparent return process, with no hidden options or unnecessary steps. For e-commerce businesses, this means updates to UX, CRM systems, logistics, and returns handling. Learn what changes are required, what your legal obligations are, and how to prepare your store to stay compliant and avoid penalties.
