EEC Approves Duty-Free Threshold of 200 Euros for Goods from Online Marketplaces

The Council of the Eurasian Economic Commission has approved a duty-free threshold for goods purchased by individuals on electronic marketplaces at the level of 200 euros, with the possibility of revising it in the future.

If the threshold is exceeded, a customs duty of 5% will be charged in addition to the nationally established VAT rates, but not less than 1 euro per kilogram, on the total value of the purchase. Currently, a duty of 15% is charged when the threshold is exceeded.

The new e-commerce regulation in the EAEU will come into force on July 1, 2026.

Special customs duty rates have been set for certain categories of goods, such as automobiles.
