Irish customs & IOSS

[coxandbudgebooks]

Aside from all the 'ebay is a truly awful selling site' posts (most of which I 100% agree with and am doing a staged, planned withdrawal), has anyone had any issues with sales and post to the Republic of Ireland? 

My last two have been returned (over the last 2 weeks) - all correctly documented and IOSSed - all done as before. They reach Dublin and are refused and returned. I'm wholly aware I could have taken my eye off the ball and either missed an announcement / requirement / thread, or are they just picking on me? 

Thanks in advance.

Use this site to get your taric/customs codes & when sending to Eire use the ful 10 digit code.

Since I have been doing this I have had no returns from them.

That looks a very useful site, many thanks.

If you haven't seen it this may be useful as well for commodity codes

Sometimes I find a good approach is to type in google "hs code" anda rough description, that will give you some ideas and then if you put the tariff code into the gov.uk page you can navigate back up the categories.

We haven't sent anything to Ireland since 2021 due to their customs returning everything we sent, even when the correct codes from the anpost link were used. Neither anpost or revenue.ie could explain why as they said the items we were sending were not prohibited. We sadly had to block Ireland as we had lots of customers there. The cost to us was just too much when we had to refund the shipping costs that we did not get back.
