The courier DDU freight cost does include costs for local import and customs clearance services by the courier service at destination. It does not include local customs, local import duties or local taxes (VAT). To minimize import procedures/costs customers preferably would have its own VAT clearence account with the centralized VAT authorities. Some EU countries might not have this procedure and the courier service might add an extra charge e.g. in UK it is approximately GBP 11.00 per shipment.

The courier service bills these third party costs (customs, duties, taxes, VAT) directly to the customer and also collects it from customer. Preferably the goods receiving party would have their own courier service account. The courier service would then charge these third party costs direct to this customer account. This will speed up the delivery considerably. Provide with your order to Spirig your account number.
