Returned Parcels from Republic of Ireland
Hiya can anyone help on this one , with both Replublic of Ireland & Northern Ireland our products sells well, But recently every order (which there is a lot) we send out to Republic of Ireland is been returned to us by republic of ireland customs sticker on them stating RETURN TO SENDER. REJECTED/FAILED ELECTRONIC CUSTOMS CLEARENCE. I post by click & drop , fill in the CNN form, add Amazons IOSS number, nothing is overlooked on the customs form. This was happening with Etsy last week (which im waiting a reply) evrey one sent been return, bvut now i have just received 3 back from the postman with the same thing & they are all Amazon orders

You need to register for EORI number starting with XI. ?

We have not had any known issues in Ireland. We registered for an IOSS number which starts with XI. VAT is not deducted at source.

Also watch out that Ire. can sometimes have different HS/Taric codes - often with extra numbers on the end. I always check this first (for Ireland) -

Also check if your item’s HS code is not on the prohibited list available at Royal Mail website:
If you are sending an item to Ireland via the Import One Stop Shop (IOSS) VAT scheme, with an HS code where the first 6 digits relate to a chapter or heading in the table below, please be aware these are restricted by Irish Customs and will be returned to sender.
