Toy car rejected by Royal mail for export to Germany

On 1st October a sent a toy hot wheels car to Germany.

It was rejected by the Royal Mail and sent back to me with no explaination.

I raised a query with royal mail and they said

 

HS Codes 950100-950399 , Toys are restricted in Germany.

 

please note I have a Valid LUCID licence and I have been selling to Germany for 10 years.

I have asked the Royal mail to explain as the link they sent me says nothing about trestrictions on Toys to Germany.

 

Can anyone help?

Toy car rejected by Royal mail for export to Germany

I Have had this happen too , I send from france and every now and then a parcel will come back from germany with no explanation , The sticker from the german most making no sense , i have just resent them using a different service , i sent a very expensive vintage lead figures set and that came back within days no attempt to deliver , i am lucid registered as well , i did for a long time get requests from ebay .De to add a german vat number , even though i have a french/EU one they wanted a seperate quartly vat return sending to germany , most of my items were no longer seen or available after that , germany was one of my best customers , so it maybe that you have no german vat number and were unfortunatley picked up and returned by german customs , i would try sending it again , different courier too perhaps
