Import to the EU

A question for all EU members especially Germans, did y’all payed an extra fee like an importfee?

I didn’t pay anything for an order sent to France.

Because DHL contacted me for informations. I think because of fees not sure from the Zoll/Douane or EUimport fees.

DHL contacted me too but to choose the delivery method : directly at home or to pick-up point.

My method was already choosen for those station. They asked me things like adresse. but thanks i will see

@Pit_Nothum I’ve read elsewhere on the forum that Framework will take care of all import fees and if your carrier asks for import fees that you should contact Framework.

German batch 8 here, no import fees or anything. They deliver the parcel to you and that’s it.

Gut das hilft weiter, Danke! :slight_smile:

To be clear, when Framework says they are open to doing business in a particular country and they are charging VAT, then there should be no customs fees. That is the whole point of being legally able to do business in the country of question.

My guess is that the carrier is simply misinformed or made a mistake.

Yes and no. I fail to remember the name of the program, but the EU does have a program where sellers outside the EU can handle their EU VAT for sales to the EU. That would happen before the courier is involved.

However, the courier does of course have a legal obligation to ensure they are not “smuggling”, so if anything looks off with the paperwork from things like the before mentioned program (whatever it was called), they are legally obligated to hold the parcel and investigate/collect/yadayada.

Hi everyone!

I’m currently configuring myself a Framework 13 with Ryzen and wondering how much anyone who ordered one to germany or EU in general paid in import fees and taxes on top what’s on the order itself?

No extra fees, Framework does the import and everything is included in your price.
