Customs & Taxes When Importing into France
Business shipments (intra‑EU)
For goods moving from Finland to France (both EU members), there are no border customs controls.
Companies may need to file statistical returns (Intrastat / EMEBI). See
Douane guidance (EN)
and the EMEBI page
here.
- VAT is accounted for under intra‑Community rules; import VAT applies mainly to goods entering the EU from non‑EU territories.
- Excise goods (alcohol, tobacco, energy products) follow specific EU/French rules.
Personal effects & special cases
Moving household goods between EU countries is generally duty‑free. If goods originate from outside the EU or travel via territories outside EU VAT scope,
normal EU rules on release for free circulation and VAT may apply (see
EU Commission: Free circulation
and VAT territorial scope).
Travelers bringing goods from outside the EU should review French duty‑free allowances:
Douane allowances.
