Importing toys and games into the European Union on DDP terms stacks one CCT duty plus national VAT. The exact numbers depend on your 10-digit code and origin; the method below is the one customs actually applies.

The EU fee stack for this category

Reference line: 9503.00.00. Your exact 8–10-digit code decides the final rate — treat the rows below as the stack structure with illustrative rates for the example line.

Duty (Common Customs Tariff, example line)Free (0%) — on CIF value
Import VAT (member state)e.g. DE 19% (7% staple food), FR 20% (5.5% food), NL 21%
Low-value B2C (≤ EUR 150)EUR 3 flat duty per item + EUR 2 handling from 1 Nov 2026

Member-state VAT (19–21%) applies. Low-value B2C consignments carry the EUR 3 flat duty + EUR 2 handling from Nov 2026 instead of tariff duty.

What DDP terms change

Under DDP the supplier's price bundles freight, insurance, duty and taxes. Customs valuation law does not allow the duty stack to be reverse-engineered out of a bundled price: the transaction value is the goods price, and the stack must be computed and added. If your DDP quote looks too cheap, someone is under-declaring — the liability follows the importer of record.
