Triangle after Brexit
- Thread starter Rheinischerjung
- Start date
I used shipping via UK to Ireland which arrived in UK around Jan 6th(had tracking number). It was then forwarded by Royal Mail and was given second number by Andrew. Arrived with no trouble with customs.

No, not at all.
The UK is no longer part of the EU, German Customs like to check everything.

Absolutely right. Any shipment from UK has to have a customs declaration (form CN22) showing description of content and value. If marked as a "Gift" and value below 45 Euros there is no customs duty payable in Germany however this does not automatically mean the friendly customs officer in Germany will not seize it, send you a letter to come to their office and open it in his presence.
From my experience the probability, that the so called “gift trick” does work for German customs, tends towards zero.

Exactly. And if it is not marked as "Gift" then the maximum value without incurring customs duty is 22 Euros.
Incidentally the word "Gift" in German means "Poison" so who knows how the German customs will react.........

Yes he did. I've had issues with a parcel not arriving to France from UK so he resent my order from Luxembourg

Hello, what about second hand watches from UK?
Could be passed like watch to be repaired or repaired with a bill for maintenance of 20 eur for example?
Or better to pay something, for example declare second hand not working and give 49 eur value and pay something for duties? This could save us?
Kind regards

This is the Topic about shipping fromTD Trustytime. Your question is posted in the wrong section.
trustytime The triangle shipping via uk worked as good as before brexit. It took a few days longer than 4px. I ordered on puretime the same day and it was three days faster. But the service from Andrew was perfect.
The TD’s will soon work out the best way to get you EU guys your watches, it’s in their interest. They are the ones that lose out when they have to re send any confiscated watches.
I’ve just had a watched returned from Interaktiv in Greece and it appears to have flown through UK customs. (DHL Express)
