That is really odd. Is this something new? I regretted the UK leaving the EU but maybe not if this happens now.Here they make you register and pay taxes as if you were a business because it's to a non-EU country.
In the past prior to Covid I bought various items from NL, UK, PO, think 1 from ES. Rules & shipping were simpler. What used to be simple now is IMO very convoluted & expensive with delays after shipping, not worth attempt except a few unattainables this side of the pond.I tried to but a ligature from an independent manufacturer in Italy and he was bewildered by the requirements, so was I.
Don't feel bad, due to aging I often think I'm in France too....or Italy......but thankfully never in the United Snakes of Morons.I don't know why I wrote French when you are quite obviously in Spain, senile moment.
To be honest Pete it was a couple of years ago already and my shortterm memory is like a murky bog in an episode of Vera now. The link below has the rules that you have to follow. If you don't read Spanish you can google translate it but you still won't understand it in......I'm bilingual and understand it linguistically but the legalese gives me a brain freeze by the 3rd page of this nightmare. So I just made it out to be a present. to a close friend and avoided the whole thing. It was a one off anyway because after that I realized it's not possible to sell there. which is a real bummer.That is really odd. Is this something new?

Or is it just a Spain thing?
