Summary
Starting July 1, 2026, Ireland’s new customs duty hits online shoppers hard: every item under 150 euros now faces a 3 euro charge—stacked before VAT, meaning you pay tax on tax. That’s three separate fees for a shirt, socks, and hat—even if the total is cheap. Officials urge buyers to check final prices upfront and ask sellers for clarity to avoid surprise bills. Next time you shop abroad, factor in those hidden charges—your wallet might thank you. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
