Hi, thinking of buying clothes from a well known Amercian clothes website and i realise im probably going to get hit for import tax, my question would be how much am i likely to have to pay if the package is worth around $120? Thanks

Tax will be as follows $120 + Cost of delivery (say $30) = $150 exchange to €115. Duty approx. 5% (depends of what it is) then 21% Vat on the combined total + a €5 admin charge if it come through an post - (Global Express mail) or €15 admin charge if from UPS.

So approx. €30 taxes + €5 - €15 admin.
