The Real Cost of Importing from Outside Europe — And Why You Should Buy at QuedeJapon.es

In the age of online shopping, more and more collectors and gamers are searching beyond Europe for exclusive treasures: Japanese retro consoles, rare video games, original manga, and more. Japan is a paradise for fans of classic gaming and pop culture—but how much does it really cost to import from outside the EU?

Let’s break it down—and discover why www.quedejapon.es is your best option for stress-free shopping.

Hidden Costs of Importing from Japan, the US, or Asia

Buying from marketplaces like eBay, Mercari, or Japanese online stores may seem affordable at first glance. But when your package arrives at customs, the real price often increases significantly.

1. Import Taxes and VAT

Any item entering the European Union from a non-EU country is subject to:

  • 21% VAT on the total value, including shipping.

  • Customs duties, which may vary between 2–4%.

  • Customs processing fees (typically €5–€20 charged by postal services).

A video game bought for €50 could end up costing over €70 by the time you receive it.

2. Delays and Paperwork

  • Your parcel may be held for weeks at customs.

  • You’ll often need to submit invoices or fill out forms.

  • If anything goes wrong, the package might be returned or even destroyed.

3. Product Risk

You may receive damaged or fake items, especially from peer-to-peer platforms. And if issues arise, you're stuck dealing with foreign-language support and complicated refund processes.
