Thank Brexit for these anomalies. I had to pay duty on a birthday card from my daughter. It was correctly stamped and customs stickered but still incurred a 15 EUR admin fee.

There are folk here that claim they can make the admin work, but not in my experience.

Good for Covid vaccine and US tariffs though.

You'd probably have been ok if it had been an eTicket, and presumably the seller should not have charged local sales tax as it was for export. not that either of those things help you now
