Even for similar products, the applicable HS code may vary depending on how the local customs authority classifies the goods. As the final customs duties and taxes are determined by the destination country's customs authority, OLIVE YOUNG is unable to provide an exact estimate in advance.
However, you may use the following examples as a general reference. Since customs duties are charged at EUR 3 per HS code, ordering a wider variety of product types may increase your customs clearance costs.
▶ Example 1
Total quantity: 10 items (5 toners, 5 creams)
→ Estimated customs duty: EUR 3
If the toner and cream products are classified under the same HS code, only one HS code would apply.
▶Example 2
Total quantity: 10 items (3 toners, 2 creams, 2 lipsticks, 1 foam cleanser, 2 food products)
→ Estimated customs duty: EUR 12
If the products are classified into four separate HS codes (e.g., toner/cream, lipstick, foam cleanser, and food products), customs duties would be charged for each HS code.
※Important Notes:
- Customs duties and taxes are not included at checkout. Once your shipment arrives in the destination country, the local customs authority will assess the applicable charges and collect them from the recipient.
- HS code classifications may vary by country, even for similar products.
- Customs duties and VAT (Value Added Tax) are separate charges. In addition to the EUR 3 customs duty per HS code, VAT may also be assessed by the local customs authority.
- If customs duties and taxes are assessed, the carrier may charge additional handling fees related to their collection.
