Do I pay customs duty sending from Moldova to Latvia?
That depends on the customs relationship between Moldova and Latvia. Parcels moving inside one customs territory, such as between two EU member states, need no declaration. They attract no import duty and no import VAT.
Where the corridor crosses a customs border, a declaration accompanies every parcel. Booking from Moldova generates the required form from the contents and value you enter. The recipient in Latvia pays any import duty and local VAT on arrival. Customs calculates both on the declared value. Declare honestly. Understated values are the most common cause of parcels held at the border.
Gifts below the local de-minimis threshold are often exempt from duty. Latvia sets that threshold, not the carrier. Restrictions on excise goods such as alcohol and tobacco apply on every corridor. They apply even inside the EU.
Keep the commercial invoice or receipt available until the parcel arrives in Latvia. Customs may ask for proof of value on shipments from Moldova.What cannot be sent from Moldova to Latvia?
Some items are refused on every corridor. Others are refused only on shipments into Latvia. The universal list covers cash and negotiable instruments, live animals, perishable food, loose batteries, aerosols, flammable liquids, weapons and their parts, narcotics, and human remains. We refuse these at collection in Moldova. They are not insurable.Some destinations restrict more than the universal list. Typical additions into Latvia include alcohol and tobacco above personal allowances, prescription medicines without documentation, plant material and seeds, and cosmetics in commercial quantities. Branded goods can need proof of origin. Check the rules for Latvia before booking when your item could fall in one of these categories.
Lithium batteries inside a device are accepted. Loose or spare batteries are not. Check before booking if you are unsure whether an item is accepted on the Moldova to Latvia corridor. Parcels stopped in transit return at the sender's cost. The insurance does not apply to them.
