Hello Guys,

I made the decision to start a dropship webshop.
I am selling small articles from aliexpress to my customers.

I live in the Netherlands, but i want to sell to Europe and the USA.
My main concern is the Tax, if i for example sell a product worth less than €22 to someone in the USA shipped from China.
Do i need to pay tax and import costs?

Some sellers also sell from the USA...
Can someone explain me a little bit more about this?

Best regards,

Dylan

I can't really answer you because I don't know the taxes regulations in NL. However, I believe you should only pay taxes only when you sell to someone from the Netherlands. Other than that, you'll only need to pay the income tax (dunno what it's called exactly). But for a specific answer, consult an account in your home country. But if you're just starting, just ignore this for now until you make some good amount of sales.

Generally, it is the buyer who pay tax. What you should be concerned is making sales. This is where many are struggling.
