Starting January 1, 2027, the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) will enforce new rules on cross-border e-commerce, imposing a unified customs duty of 5% (minimum €1/kg) and a duty-free threshold of €200 for goods imported via e-commerce. The Customs Code amendments have been ratified by Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of E-commerce.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Cross-border sellers into EAEU countries now face a clear customs rate and import threshold, making compliance simpler but also raising costs for shipments over €200. You must adjust pricing and logistics strategies to maintain margins inside the EAEU from January 1.
