Full Details
Posting cosmetics to Romania in personal quantities is permitted — registration and notification regimes govern marketing cosmetics, not personal parcels. Romanian Customs Authority (AVR) applies the ordinary parcel framework to an accurate CN22/CN23 declaration: import VAT/GST at 19% applies above the exemption threshold, plus duty on above-threshold consignments. EU EUR 22 import-VAT exemption ended; all commercial parcels into Romania attract 19% VAT regardless of value. Customs duty 0% under EUR 150; standard rate above. Romania joined Schengen for air/sea borders 31 March 2024. Aerosols and nail varnish are dangerous-goods limited quantities for air mail; bulk or repeated identical parcels are treated as unregistered commercial imports.
Keep parcels to personal quantities and declare contents specifically ('face cream', not 'gift'). Check carrier rules for aerosols and nail varnish — they are the commonly refused items in this class.
