Hallo miteinander, Bei einer Nachfrage in einem französischen Shop zu mittlerweile sehr deutlich erhöhten Versandkosten, bekam ich folgende Antwort:
Indeed, since February 2024 the cost of the shipping is now higher because of the excises taxes that the carrier apply to us, according to the law. These excises taxes are redevable to the guest and not to the shop who sell bottles of spirits. For your information we paid for you accises taxes for your orders of February and April not having had any information about the new rules of exportation of spirits of the carrier. As we are aware from now on, we must apply too this new rule and we are sorry for the extra cost of the shipping for any other potential order.
Hat sich da seit Februar was geändert ??
