What this line means

Final carrier invoices remain authoritative.

Spain-specific checks

What Spanish shoppers should verify.

Correos clearance is separate

Correos or another carrier can charge for customs presentation, DUA handling, or recovering amounts advanced to customs. DutyVAT keeps those carrier-service charges outside the statutory estimate because the amount depends on the service and declaration path.

VAT is usually the big line

Spain's standard import VAT rate is 21%, so even a small duty line can lift the VAT base. The calculator shows duty and VAT separately so you can compare the landed estimate with the checkout receipt.

Special territories need care

Orders involving the Canary Islands, Ceuta, or Melilla can follow different tax and customs treatment from mainland Spain. Use this page for ordinary mainland consumer imports and verify those edge cases before relying on the estimate.

FAQ

The questions,
plainly answered.

Plain explanations of how duty, tax, IOSS, and Spain handling rules interact.

01 What is DutyVAT?
DutyVAT is a free customs duty calculator for shoppers ordering from outside the EU. Enter your item value, HS code, and destination country and we estimate the duty, VAT, and handling fees you'll pay before the parcel arrives.
02 What replaced the EU €150 customs-duty exemption?
The EU €150 customs-duty exemption was abolished on 2026-07-01. The current temporary measure is EUR 3 per tariff-classified goods-item line for low-value distance sales up to EUR 150 and is scheduled to apply until 2028-07-01. Goods of the same kind may share a line only when commodity code and country of origin match. Preferential-trade or customs-union cases can be excluded in specific declaration routes. The current calculator does not add this temporary duty because it does not collect declaration route, preference, tariff grouping, or origin.
03 How accurate are the calculations?
We use official TARIC and national tax authority data, refreshed regularly. Every numeric value on the site is backed by a source URL and a last-verified date. Use the calculator as a guide; the customs authority, carrier, or declarant determines the final amount.
04 Do I pay duty on samples or gifts?
Qualifying occasional gifts sent between private individuals can receive relief up to €45, subject to the EU conditions. Commercial samples follow separate relief rules and are not treated as gifts. DutyVAT models ordinary consumer purchases, so verify gifts and samples with the destination customs authority.
05 Can I reclaim duty on a return?
A refund may be available when imported goods are returned, but eligibility, deadlines, and procedures depend on the customs route and country. Check your national customs authority for the applicable process.
06 Do you store my data?
Calculator inputs stay in your browser and are not submitted to DutyVAT. If you email us, your message is used to respond to your request. DutyVAT currently sets no cookies and uses no analytics or advertising trackers; see Privacy for hosting and email details.
