EU Import Regulation Changes 2026: Why Shopping at Bazaar-Bazaar.eu Is Business as Usual

Looking for imported PlayStation, Nintendo Switch or Xbox games without unexpected import duties, taxes or delivery charges ? Bazaar-Bazaar.eu has you covered.

The European Union has introduced important changes to its import regulations in 2026, affecting how goods purchased from outside the EU enter the European market. These changes have attracted considerable attention from online shoppers, particularly those who regularly purchase imported products from non-EU retailers.

But there is good news for customers shopping at Bazaar-Bazaar.eu : our business model is already designed to make international gaming imports simple, transparent and hassle-free.

All Bazaar-Bazaar.eu customer orders are dispatched from within the EU. This means customers can continue enjoying our extensive collection of imported physical video games without worrying about unexpected import charges at their doorstep.

And with more than 500 games in stock across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox and retro gaming platforms, there has never been a better reason to explore our catalogue.

What Has Changed in EU Import Regulations in 2026?

From 1 July 2026, the European Union abolished the previous €150 customs duty exemption for qualifying low-value imports arriving directly from outside the EU.

Previously, goods valued at €150 or less could generally enter the EU without customs duties, although import VAT was still applicable under the relevant VAT rules.

Under the new arrangements, a temporary €3 customs duty applies to qualifying items in low-value consignments imported from outside the EU.

This measure is intended to create fairer competition between European retailers and businesses selling directly to European consumers from outside the EU.

The change is part of a wider modernization of European customs regulations, designed to improve product traceability, strengthen customs controls and create a more consistent system for international e-commerce.

For shoppers purchasing directly from non-EU websites, this can mean additional costs and more complicated import procedures.

However, not every online purchase is affected in the same way.

Bazaar-Bazaar.eu Is Not Affected by the New Import Charges

At Bazaar-Bazaar.eu, we take a different approach.

We ship all customer orders from within the European Union.

Our imported games are sourced and brought into EU stock before being offered to customers. Once the products are in the EU and have been released into free circulation, they can be sold and dispatched to customers without a new import customs procedure for each individual order.

This is an important difference compared with websites that ship individual products directly from countries outside the EU.

When you order from Bazaar-Bazaar.eu:

• Your order is dispatched from within the EU.

• You don't have to arrange customs clearance for your individual order.

• You don't have to worry about unexpected import duty charges on delivery.

• The applicable taxes and delivery costs are included in the prices presented to customers.

• You know what you are paying before completing your purchase.

In other words, the new EU import regulations do not change the way our customers shop with us.

Our philosophy is simple: no unpleasant surprises, no unexpected import bills and no complicated customs procedures for our customers.

Guaranteed Prices Including Tax, Duty and Delivery

We understand that buying imported physical video games should be enjoyable, not stressful.

One of the biggest frustrations with ordering from overseas retailers is discovering that the advertised price isn't necessarily the final price.

Depending on where a retailer is based and how it ships its products, customers may face additional VAT, customs duties, handling charges or delivery fees.

At Bazaar-Bazaar.eu, transparency is important.

Our pricing is designed to give customers a clear understanding of the total cost of their purchase, including applicable taxes, import duties already accounted for in our EU supply chain and delivery costs.

The price you see is the price you can plan around.

No unexpected customs invoices arriving after your order. No surprise import charges from the delivery company.

Just great physical video games delivered from within the European Union.
