Customs Duty De Minimis Values by Country (Updated 2022)

Time to read: 8 minutes

One of the more revolutionary aspects of eCommerce is its ability to connect consumers with hard-to-find, well-sought-after items quickly. The industry made the world smaller and more accessible. It would take weeks or even months to find rare items back then. And it would be costly as it would go through sellers, intermediaries, several ports, and more. E-commerce has made these rare items or collectibles far easier to obtain.  For retailers, eCommerce provides a more extensive customer base. More potential buyers equals more chances of making a profit. 

Yet, despite it being easier to get into, there’s still a learning curve before a seller offers international shipping. Countries impose different rules and regulations on imports and exports. One of these guidelines sellers should  note is the Customs Duty De Minimis Value. 

What is Customs Duty De Minimis Value?

Contrary to popular belief, not all goods are subjected to tax and duties when it reaches their international destination. Items whose declared value falls below a certain threshold, otherwise known as the de minimis value, do not have duties and taxes tacked on to them. Each country imposes its own fees. 

 

 

Importance of Customs Duty De Minimis Knowledge 

It is crucial for online retailers that cater to international customers to be aware of the de minimis value of their service countries. These tax exemptions may play a role in determining price structures and profit margins. Likewise, knowing the de minimis value of a region can help a retailer provide better customer service to their patrons. Sellers can inform their buyers if their orders have gone past the de minimis value of their area.
