How to add your IOSS Number to your shipments

On the 1st July 2021, the European Union (EU) made the following customs changes that affect businesses sending goods to EU countries:

• Removal of the €22 VAT-free threshold: VAT will be charged for all transactions involving goods and services.
• Introduction of Import One-Stop Shop (IOSS): a new system for reporting and collecting VAT on B2C sales of low-value goods imported from non-EU countries.
