Industria textilă europeană cere o „taxă de manipulare” de 10 euro per colet, în special pentru pachetele care provin din China
European textile confederations are urging the EU to set a handling fee of 10 euros per small parcel from China. This follows new regulations imposing a 3-euro tax on parcels under 150 euros. The aim is to combat environmental pollution and unfair competition from Asian platforms. The handling fee is expected to be introduced in November, with revenues proposed to enhance customs controls. The textile sector, representing 1.2 million jobs in Europe, supports these measures as necessary for fair competition.
