Hi there! Long time no see! I have a few questions about the changes after Brexit. What are the problems for you with shipping from the EU? What are the additional costs for you? Any tips on how to ship orders to make it the cheapest for you? Thanks a lot guys and Happy New Year to everyone. ![smile smile](/forum/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)

Not sure this will help, but I have been buying some parts from the UK and shipping into Bulgaria as a private individual. I know you are looking at the other way around, but it SHOULD be the same process!!!
The main thing that I needed was an EORI number. This is for the EU and the UK. You get the number for free from your local customs office. This is your permanent personal number that you use every time. I think, that below a value of 150 euro's this is not needed, but over this amount it is.
I have had several different experiences. Sometimes I have not been charged any import duty. Other times I have.
In theory the supplier should not charge the VAT, but some do!!! If the VAT is not charged the duty usually works out about the same amount so in effect there is no additional cost than there was before Brexit.
The paperwork has been sorted out by the courier in all cases (Or the post office). They do have a nominal charge for this.
It does take longer for deliveries but its not bad.
I do try to buy only from the EU, but its now quite easy with the EORI number to buy from the UK.
I hope this helps a little.

Thanks a lot guys and Happy New Year to everyone. ![smile smile](/forum/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif) It's a problem Mariusz which is difficult to get around other then friends bringing parts in or items being held until I visit Europe, import duty, handlers fee and the timescale it takes to receive items after they’ve passed through customs means for me I have no idea when parts are going to arrive like the lips I purchased in December, tracking only allows me to see when they've left meaning it's not possible to track the items in the UK, Brexshit in truth is a shit show!

Receiving parcels here in France from the uk is a lottery. People here are reporting getting charged by the postman at their door up to 50% of the parcel value. Now something really has to be important/urgent for me to buy from the uk.
Due to the cyber attack I'm still waiting for a uk registered letter that was posted on the 16th December last year.
