Snus EU

[Jean78]

We do have snus in Denmark. Thunder and Offroad from V2 plus General lös. Thunder and Offroad is both chew bags and lös.

But they only have the Thunder Frosted chew bags at my local store and sometimes I need something else. The chew bags are a way getting around the ban of portion snus, but I don't think its the same as swedish portion snus. The bags are a bit harder and the prices are a little bit higher than snusline including customs. Its hard to believe, right... 7,26 dollar per can!

I believe that the customs don't declare packages with a value less than 14 dollars. Then I have to order 3 cans each time. And if the customs nails me anyway I have to pay a 29 dollar fee just to be declared. Most of the customs I have to pay is the fee - taxes are only 16 dollars.

I might have to buy 50 cans to split the 29 dollars fee on more cans and hold the price down if I get caught in customs.

nine days is ok. Taxes being nearly twice the price of the payment is a bit steep.
Try keeping the orders small in future. Remember shipping is free. Try to find out what weight of tobacco you are allowed to bring in that is exempt from taxation.
Can you not get snus in Denmark?

Man, that sucks.
I'd drive to Sweden and fill up the whole car.
Your customs are pretty tight.
Odens is definitely your best bet as tax is paid at point of sale.

I think the Danish customs have found out whats in those little deliveries from Isreal. I have heard a lot of danish costumers being taken in the customs around this time. My brother too.

But they dont have permission to take it, if you order from under 80kr which is about 3 cans. Its the only way to get by customs. Its sucks though.

If you sometime try Odens.EU then please say how it went.

@Frosted
Your customs are rally tight here in Denmark. But Swedish customs are nearly as tight.

@Renico
Do you live in Denmark? You, your brother and I could make a really big order together and save big time. PM me.


There are two ways to bypass the Danish customs.

1. Try the one with only 3 cans per order and make an order once a week or so.

2. Make a really big order on 50 cans with an offer on 20% bonus from snusline. This way the fee of 29 dollars will be shared on 60 cans and the price on each can will be low. I did a calculation and the price per cans - if I order 50 cans plus 10 bonus cans - will be around 4,7 dollars including taxes and custom fees per can.

Calculation:
50 (plus 10 in bonus) cans of Odens Creamy Wintergreen: 189 dollars.
Taxes on 60 cans of snus: 67 dollars.
Fixed fee to customs: 29 dollars.

Total 286 dollars - 4,76 dollars per can. (3,15 if I don't get caught).

Both ways will end up with hate. Snusline will hate me for ordering only 3 cans once a week. And my wife will hate me if I order 60 cans and fill up our fridge og freezer.

If you only use 3 tins a week - get the three tins a week.

[Jean78]

Damn. The 14 dollar rule don't apply on snus, tobaco, wine, beer or booze. The result is that if I order one (1!) can of snus I have to pay 4 dollars for it at snusline, then 1 dollar in taxes and then the fixed fee of 29 dollars.

The only way to go is to order a shitload of snus to keep the fixed fee down per can.

[Renico]

Ah I see.

Yea and maybe get lucky that the big order comes by the customs with no problems.
