EU imposes fixed duty on low-value parcels

Finance ministers of the European Union have agreed to impose a fixed customs duty of 3 euros on low-value parcels. This decision aims to level the playing field for foreign and domestic sellers. The new rules will affect all parcels imported into EU countries with a value below a certain threshold. The goal is to protect the European market and local producers from unfair competition from companies that do not pay full taxes and duties.
