Approximate value of a parcel from abroad 200 EUR

The base for taxation is: 200 – 150 = 50 euro.

Duty: (200 – 150) * 10% = 5 EUR

Value Added Tax (VAT): (50 + 5) * 20% = 11 EUR

Duty + VAT: 5 EUR Duty + VAT 11 EUR = 16 EUR

Total: 16 euros

Do the calculation of the volumetric weight in cm: 50*30*30 = 45000/5000 = 9 kg  

If the volumetric weight is not more than the actual weight, the cost of calculating the delivery will be the actual weight of 10 kg.

Insurance is usually 1% of the cost.
