The new EU e-commerce charge of €3 on parcels under €150 has caused a 24% year-on-year drop in e-commerce shipments at Liege Airport, with a 41% drop compared to the previous month. This shift leads to fewer low-value imports but a 10% rise in shipments above €150, triggering a reorganization of logistics flows.
