Important reminder for online shoppers

 

November 2023

Revenue recently issued a reminder to online shoppers that, where the price of goods advertised online seems attractively low, this may be because tax and duty has not been included in the price advertised, or because goods may be counterfeit.
 
Customs duties and import VAT charges do not apply when ordering goods from Ireland or other EU countries online, however, almost all goods arriving from non-EU countries will be liable to import tax and duties.Consumers also need to remember that parcel operators typically charge a separate administration fee.Where the price advertised is not inclusive of these costs, additional charges may apply once the goods arrive in Ireland.
