For Retail Senders & Small Businesses
How do I ship to the EU if I do not have a corporate account?

Personal gifts sent between individuals (C2C) with an intrinsic value of €45 or less remain completely exempt from EU tariffs and VAT.
You can continue to send family gifts tax-free via ezy2ship or at any post office islandwide, provided you include accurate item descriptions and HS codes in the electronic pre-declaration.
