EU Customs and VAT Essentials
Since 2021, all goods entering the EU under 150 EUR are subject to VAT at the destination country rate. Kakobuy spreadsheet automatically includes a Customs Declaration tab that helps you declare accurately without overpaying.
The key is truthful but conservative valuation. Shoes declared at $25-40 per pair and clothing at $8-15 per piece pass smoothly through most EU customs offices without inspection.
- Use the Triangle Shipping option in your kakobuy spreadsheet for EU parcels — it routes through a European hub and dramatically reduces customs hold rates.
- Always include a simple packing list screenshot in your parcel notes.
Best EU Delivery Lines by Country
Different EU countries have different customs strictness. Germany and Netherlands are the most efficient entry points. Italy and Spain see slightly more inspections.

| Germany | EU Triangle | 7-9 days | Low | Frankfurt hub |
