Full Details

Posting perfume to Romania is customs-permitted but carrier-constrained: fragrance alcohol is a Class 3 dangerous-goods limited quantity, so many national posts refuse or cap air-mail perfume, and couriers require limited-quantity packaging. On the customs side Romanian Customs Authority (AVR) treats it as an ordinary parcel: an accurate CN22/CN23 declaration is required, 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.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Confirm the carrier accepts perfume before shipping to Romania — postal refusal is more common than a customs problem. Declare contents accurately on the CN22/CN23; 'gift' mislabelling does not remove import charges and flags the parcel.
