Hello!
I have been looking on David’s bridal online, and I’m thinking about ordering a dress. My question is has anyone from a EU country ordered a dress from them? Is the the price listed after check out the real final price that you have to pay? Is the taxes and duty that comes up what you have to pay in your own country or that you have to pay to them?

Depends on where you live. I recently ordered some (regular) dresses and had to pay an annoying amount for customs. I live in Prague.
ETA: But I am 90% sure that the taxes listed on the website are all you’d have to pay on that end. I was talking about delivery.

Thanks
I live in Sweden and when I look at the customs page I have to pay 12 % in customs + 25 % taxes. But I’m wondering if what it said that you had to pay on david’s bridal, is what you really had to pay? Or was it more than that?

The dresses I ordered were not from David’s, but I can’t imagine it would be legal for them to charge more for people in Sweden than somewhere else.
The dresses I ordered were from Modcloth, and the price on the website was exactly what I paid.

Did you pay taxes and customs directly to Modcloth, or did you pay that when you received the package in Prague?

I paid directly to Modcloth. Then when the package was delivered, it was held at Czech customs and I had to pay another 600kc. I’m sure you can find out if Sweden will charge customs on your end.
Is 25% typical for Sweden? It seems like a very high tax rate to me.

Yes we have high taxes here….on most products it’s 25% (food and books are less)
Thank you for your help, I’m going to write to david’s bridal and ask them aswell, I want to be sure how much I will have to pay in the end 🙂
