New customs rules for online purchases from outside the EU, including Great Britain

Irish postal service users are advised of new customs rules for online purchases of goods from outside the EU, including Great Britain.   Currently, there is no Customs Duty on eCommerce packages entering the EU where the goods (excluding delivery charges etc.) are valued at €150 or less. Revenue has advised that from 1 July 2026, a €3 customs duty charge per item will apply to all eCommerce packages valued at €150 or less coming into Ireland from outside the EU, including Great Britain.   Irish postal service users are therefore advised to check what charges are applied at checkout, and what is included in the delivery terms. Increased charges may incur on delivery, if customs duties are not charged at checkout.   Further information is available on the Revenue website.
