欧盟宣布自11月1日起,对来自欧盟以外地区并直接寄送给消费者的包裹按商品类别征收每项2欧元的手续费。1 这一新费用将叠加在现行关税之上:此前7月已规定对价值低于150欧元的小包裹征收3欧元关税。1
根据新规,这笔费用将由电商平台、零售商及中间商承担,而非直接向欧洲消费者收取,但此举可能导致终端商品价格上涨。1 受影响的主要平台包括亚马逊、全球速卖通(AliExpress)、希音(Shein)和Temu等。1 欧盟方面指出,该政策的核心目的是补偿海关因处理近60亿件小包裹而增加的运营成本。1
数据显示,去年有近60亿件小包裹进入欧盟市场,其中约93%来自中国等地。1 布鲁塞尔方面表示,通过设立此类处理费,意在遏制来自这些地区的廉价包裹大规模涌入,以减轻边境执法与行政负担。1
The European Union has announced that starting November 1, it will levy a handling fee of 2 euros per distinct commodity category for packages sent directly to consumers from outside the bloc. 1 This measure aims to curb the influx of inexpensive parcels, primarily originating from China, by compensating customs authorities for the operational costs associated with processing nearly 6 billion small packages annually, approximately 93% of which came from China last year. 1
The new charge is imposed on e-commerce platforms, retailers, and intermediaries rather than directly on European consumers, although it may result in higher product prices. 1 Affected entities include major online marketplaces such as Amazon, AliExpress, Shein, and Temu. 1 The handling fee is additional to a 3-euro tariff introduced in July for low-value parcels under 150 euros. 1
