About

EU Low-Value Parcel Duty applies the Commission's published rule for goods worth up to EUR 150 imported from outside the EU: a temporary flat customs duty of EUR 3 per distinct tariff classification (not per item), from 1 July 2026 until 1 July 2028, declared and paid by the seller or importer. It counts distinct classifications in a parcel, groups shopping-cart lines by the classification key the caller supplies, adds destination standard VAT and shipping to give a landed cost (the VAT base must be chosen explicitly because it depends on the VAT scheme), reports the status of the rule on a date, and flags cases the rule may not cover. The tariff level at which a distinct classification is counted, the exclusions and the proposed Union handling fee are not settled in the sources read and are flagged, never guessed. General information, not customs advice; independent of and not affiliated with the European Commission or any customs authority.

Sources: Reference data from official sources (commission.europa.eu, europa.eu, taxation-customs.ec.europa.eu); every answer states its source, date and validity period.

  • "My cart has 5 T-shirts, 1 watch and 2 mugs: what is the duty per tariff group?"
  • "What is the landed cost in Germany of a EUR 100 parcel with EUR 10 shipping and two tariff classifications?"
  • "Is the EUR 3 duty on low-value parcels in force today and until when?"
  • "Does the EUR 3 duty apply to a EUR 149.90 order shipped from outside the EU under IOSS?"

What it does

  • parcel_duty: EUR 3 times the number of distinct tariff classifications in a parcel worth up to EUR 150.
  • group_lines: Group cart lines by the tariff classification key supplied and show quantity, value and flat duty per group.
  • landed_cost: Goods, shipping, flat duty and destination standard VAT added up for a low-value parcel, with the VAT base chosen explicitly.
  • rule_status: Status of the flat duty on a date: start, planned end, who declares and pays, and the proposed handling fee.
  • eligibility_check: Check the up-to-EUR 150 and outside-the-EU conditions and flag cases the rule may not cover.

Data sources

  • Result envelope. ok: true with data, or ok: false with a structured error (bad_input, not_found, upstream_error). degraded lists optional sources that were unreachable.
  • Rate limits. Free tier 60 tool calls/minute and 300/day per user (keyed on the user identifier supplied by the host agent, else client IP); Pro keys raise this. Over-limit calls return HTTP 429 with Retry-After. initialize and tools/list are never counted.

Privacy policy

EU Low-Value Parcel Duty — Privacy Policy

Effective 29 September 2026. Unify Dynamics LLC ("we", "us"), Menlo Park, California.

What EU Low-Value Parcel Duty is. EU Low-Value Parcel Duty is a connector (an MCP server and REST API) that AI assistants call on your behalf: EU EUR 3 flat customs duty per tariff classification on parcels worth up to EUR 150 (1 July 2026 to 1 July 2028): duty, grouping of cart lines, landed cost and rule status. You talk to your assistant; the assistant sends us only the arguments needed for that one request.

What we receive. The arguments of each tool call, the technical headers needed to serve the request (an IP address or a client identifier supplied by the assistant, and a Pro API key if you have one), and standard server logs.

Nothing is stored. Every tool is a local calculation or a lookup against bundled reference data; no request is forwarded to any third party. Arguments are used for that one response and are not logged in request bodies, recorded, or used to train anything.

What we do not receive or store. We do not receive your conversation with the assistant, your name, contacts or account credentials, and we build no profile: each request is answered independently. Rate-limit counters (a client identifier and timestamps) are held in memory for at most 24 hours. Hosting access logs (IP addresses and request paths, not request bodies) are kept for up to 30 days for security and abuse prevention.

Sub-processors. None. Hosting: Vercel (United States regions).

Your rights. Because we store no personal data beyond short-lived logs, requests to access, correct or delete data are usually satisfied automatically; you can still contact agent@connectorbay.com and we will respond within 30 days. We do not sell or share personal information.

Children. EU Low-Value Parcel Duty is a general-audience service operated by the adult using the assistant.

Changes. We will post changes here with a new effective date.
