Quantity limits
- Other goods (travelers only)
- €430 (about $500) per traveler arriving by air or sea, €300 (about $350) by land, and €150 for children under 15. Does not apply to shipments.
Before you ship to Spain
- Tax-free limit
- Boxes between mainland Spain or the Balearics and other EU countries clear no customs and owe nothing on arrival. From outside the EU (including the UK), IVA is due from the first euro unless a relief applies. Occasional, unpaid gifts from one private person to another worth up to €45 (about $53) are free of duty and IVA. The EU's €150 (about $175) customs-duty relief ended on June 30, 2026: low-value online purchases now pay a flat €3 duty per item, and other boxes that no relief covers can owe duty at the normal tariff rate for each item.
- Receiver ID
- NIF: the DNI number for Spanish citizens, or the NIE for foreign nationals needed. The import declaration identifies the receiver by tax number, and AEAT's online forms for individuals work only with the receiver's own electronic signature. Give the DNI or NIE when you book. If the receiver has no Spanish number yet, ask the courier before shipping whether a passport number will do.
- Transit
- 2-4 business days from Europe; 3-5 from North America; 4-7 from Asia
