FAQThe questions,
The questions,
plainly answered.
Plain explanations of how duty, tax, IOSS, and Italy handling rules interact.
01 What does the €2 line represent?
It is Italy's statutory administrative contribution per qualifying shipment, in force from July 1, 2026. DutyVAT keeps it separate from customs duty, VAT, and any carrier clearance charge.
02 Can Poste Italiane add another clearance charge?
Yes. Carrier customs-clearance charges, including diritti postali, may apply separately. They are not the administrative contribution modeled in the country dataset.
03 How is Italian import VAT calculated?
The standard 22% VAT is calculated on the declared value plus customs duty. The calculator shows each line separately.
04 Does every product have the same duty rate?
No. The calculation engine uses the selected HS code. Some electronics are duty-free while apparel and footwear can carry percentage duty.
05 What if VAT was collected at checkout?
Marketplace collection can affect what is collected at delivery. Keep the order invoice and treat DutyVAT as an estimate; the carrier's final invoice is authoritative.
06 How current is the Italy data?
DutyVAT displays a verified date derived from the dated VAT, handling-fee, and de-minimis fields in the country dataset.
