customs duty in sweden

[Göran Tell]

Hello
Here in Sweden they have come to the conclusion that they will introduce a customs duty on all packages by SEK 125. For everything that comes from wish and aliexpress. Is it going to go any way?

Each country has different imposition of customs duty and AliExpress has nothing to do with it. Customs duty is the responsibility of the buyer.

Didn't really understand what is the question but as Mar said, each country has it's own rules and regulations toward these shipments. However, most of Aliexpress label the cost much lower than you actually purchased it so most of the time, you're fine. Moreover, you'll more luckily receive shipments from multiple sellers so the cost will not pass SEK 125.

In our country, items that cost US$200.00 and below is free of tax. Some online stores as a matter of principle don't lower the declared cost for the purpose, but AliExpress sellers are willing to do it.
