I am not in Slovakia. Can you still clear my goods?

Yes, and for most Czech, Polish, Hungarian and Austrian buyers that is the point. Goods are released for free circulation in Slovakia and supplied onward to you under customs procedure 42: duty is paid at the border, import VAT is not, and you account for it in your own country under reverse charge.

What do you need from me to quote?

Carton dimensions, how many, the gross weight, what the goods are, the supplier's city and your delivery address. If you have none of that yet, send a photo of the supplier's packing list and we will read it.

Do you mark up duty and VAT?

No. Duty, import VAT and terminal charges are advanced on your behalf and invoiced at the exact amount, with the customs receipt attached. Our fees are the ones on the pricing page.

Customs duty and import VAT are not included above. They are advanced on your behalf and passed through at cost with the customs receipt attached.

Your goods stay in Slovakia, so procedure 42 does not apply and Slovak import VAT is payable at the border.

Minimum order 120 EUR. Rates hold for 7 days; freight moves weekly, so anyone quoting a fixed annual price is guessing.

If your goods are not staying in Slovakia, this is the page that matters

A Czech, Polish, Hungarian or Austrian buyer importing through Slovakia is importing into one member state and supplying the goods onward into another. That is customs procedure 42: duty is payable at the border, import VAT is not. The money stays in your account.

You need your own Slovak VAT registration, and the receiver needs a valid VAT number in Czechia. We do not act as fiscal representative.

Nothing hidden

Everything we charge is published before you ask.

Our fees are on one page The full fee table, the units, and three worked examples with totals are on the pricing page. The phrase "contact us for pricing" does not appear anywhere on this site.

When we are the wrong answer Our minimum invoice is 120 EUR in our own fees, not counting the value of your goods. Below roughly 0.8 m³ or 120 kg from China, a courier is cheaper than we are, and we will tell you so instead of taking the job.
