Do I pay customs duty sending from Portugal to Czech Republic?
That depends on the customs relationship between Portugal and Czech Republic. 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 Portugal generates the required form from the contents and value you enter. The recipient in Czech Republic 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. Czech Republic 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 Czech Republic. Customs may ask for proof of value on shipments from Portugal.What cannot be sent from Portugal to Czech Republic?
