From 1 July, a €3 duty applies per product type within low-value consignments - those valued up to €150. On 8 June of this year, the Commission accordingly amended the implementing regulation of the Union Customs Code. We present an overview of the changes and also speak with Gintarė Šapalaite, Customs Representative at Omniva Group, about the company's preparations for the changes and whether consignments will become more expensive for end consumers.
