For parcels worth more than €200, a duty of 15% of the amount exceeding the customs threshold will be charged, but not less than €2 per kilogram of weight.   Download the document with details of sanctions prohibited for shipment from Germany to Russia - 2026.   Calculation examples: 1. Parcel worth €450 and weighing 10 kg:   The recipient pays: (450 - 200) × 15% = €37.50.   2. Parcel worth €370 and weighing 25 kg:   The recipient pays: 25 kg × €2 = €50. Customs clearance of parcels in Russia with payment of mandatory customs duties is always carried out by the recipient independently.   BPD Express does not handle customs clearance of parcels or payment of customs duties in Russia!   If a parcel has arrived in Russia with a customs notification and has been sent back to Germany, the recipient must take the following steps:If the recipient has not paid the mandatory customs duties in Russia and the parcel has been returned, they should bear in mind that, in addition to the delivery cost already paid, they will have to pay the same amount twice: for the return shipment from Russia to Germany and for the re-shipment of the parcel from Germany to Russia. Important: Returned parcels remain in storage in Russia and cannot be transferred to us. Reshipment can only be made to the same address or another address specified by the recipient. In this case, the contents of the parcel cannot be divided into several parts or changed. If the recipient refuses to pay for re-shipping, the parcel will be disposed of unilaterally at the customer's expense, without any compensation or reimbursement for the cost of the contents. The cost of disposal is equal to the cost of delivery of the parcel. The average time for returning a parcel from Russia to Germany is 30 to 60 days.
