Swedes now pay €15 on everything

best solution is to just buy from taobao and get a giant package for everything'

see http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_MEMO-16-3746_en.htm

>After 2021, all goods bought online by EU consumers from sellers outside the EU will also be subject to VAT, in line with current EU sales practices. While there may be a decrease in sales from outside the EU as a result of a more level playing-field in this market segment, trustworthy sellers from outside the EU should welcome the measures since it brings certainty over final pricing to their EU customers. Currently, a significant number of parcels are refused by consumers once they arrive in the EU as they are faced with additional VAT and clearance fees from postal or courier operators.

NO NO NO NO

```The clearance of small consignments from trusted non-EU traders or marketplaces who register with the VAT One Stop Shop will be simplified in terms of customs procedures. Consignments valued up to €150 will no longer be stopped at customs for VAT clearance and VAT collection for these goods will be managed separately on a self-assessment basis. This marks an important change in the world of customs, moving from clearance per transaction to clearance on overall sales. However, the new VAT rules will in no way interfere with other customs rules and regulations concerning safety and security, nor with the existing customs simplification measures already in place.
