Usually, I ordered and used PostNL service for goods GearBest, Bangood, etc.
Now my order was stopped in customs. On the shipment is a label: THIS GOOD DOES NOT COMPLAIN WIHT EU REGULATION……And I need to declare the price for customs. The price I paid (usually from PayPal account). So as usual form of declaration. No special “in EU” procedure=direct delivery.
The Shipment from PostNL is not handled anymore as in-EU shipment.
Explanation from customs: We got this order, a lot of “cheating” with PostNL………
So just for you guys, to know.
(I’m from Czech Republic, and ordered goods were Chuwi Hi12 dual boot.)
April 29, 2016 at 8:57 am #35508Hi, I’ve seen that sticker on one of my PostNL boxes here and nothing has happened yet in Spain at least.
Most of the free post methods like PostNL, Singapore post, China post and others are still tax free for me. Just all of the express ones are stopped and I have to pay 21% + 15 Euro paperwork fee.

Ordered and waiting for my: BMAX S15 & Teclast F6 Plus
Currently testing: LG G8X & Redmi K30April 29, 2016 at 12:06 pm #35537Also, I had to place an order via PostNL (I had to additionally request, as in the standard form such a possibility was not) and I also do not avoid paying customs.
I ordered the iWork10 from Gearbest – delivery to SlovakiaChris’re probably lucky that officials in Spain are either benevolent or lazier 😉
Any tips on delivery, which avoids customs in EasternEU ?
April 29, 2016 at 6:29 pm #35566Just got mine Chuwi Hi12 dual boot from GearBest.
But paid 21 % VAT and Eur 4 as handling fee. Customs was very carefull about contents.
May 6, 2016 at 7:56 pm #36296I got that sticker too in my X98 Pro from PostNL, but no customs problem, at least here in Spain, like post #2
May 8, 2016 at 10:40 am #36425Hi all,
First post, greetings to all forum members, I have ordered a Chuwi Hibook on the 03/05/2016 and stupid me I have paid to have it expedited, I have received an E-mail today saying the order has been shipped, the courier when I look under my account is DHL.
Does this mean I am going to have to pay custom charges? if this is the case I am going to refuse and let them send the tablet back to China, I would have probably been better off buying a premium tablet from the UK.
May 13, 2016 at 12:46 pm #37136My tablet arrived in Ireland yesterday from banggood.com and, despite usage of PostNL, was seized by customs.
I got the “dreaded letter” today asking for a receipt 🙁
May 31, 2016 at 8:49 pm #39391My Cube i7 stylus arrived today via postNL tax free to Finland.
June 1, 2016 at 12:14 am #39414how do you get Gearbest / Banggood to use PostNL ? I can’t see any option on their site.
