- The Italian Customs Agency clarified details about the €2 fee on non-EU shipments valued at €150 or less, established by the 2026 budget law.
- The fee covers administrative customs clearance costs, is not a customs duty, and is excluded from the VAT taxable base.
- Only H1 and H7 customs declaration forms are affected by this fee.
- The fee does not apply to re-imported Union goods under temporary export or when using customs codes 61, 63, or 68.
- For H1 forms with multiple shipments, the fee is due for each shipment valued at €150 or less; for a single shipment with multiple items, the fee is charged only once for the first item.
