French Customs and TVA
France applies 20% TVA on all imports. For goods under 150 EUR, only TVA applies. Above 150 EUR, additional customs duties based on product category are charged. DHL Express and Chronopost DDP options collect these fees at checkout, preventing delivery delays.
La Poste deliveries require recipients to pay TVA and any duties online before release. Colissimo provides tracking and notification emails with payment links. Ensure your phone number is correct on the shipping label to receive SMS notifications from La Poste.
France Delivery Tip
French post offices (bureaux de poste) and relais points are convenient pickup alternatives to home delivery. If you are not home during the day, select a relais pickup point during checkout to avoid missed delivery attempts.
