Duty costs on orders sent to the EU/ROI
From 1st February 2022, PenCarrie will no longer subsidise the duty or DPD costs on orders sent to EU/ROI countries.
The duty rates for all applicable styles can be found on the ‘Duty Rates’ tab on the Price Lists online. The subsidised duty rate will no longer apply after 1st February.
From 1st February 2022, the Price Lists will only show the actual duty rate that you will be charged. Details of the duty rates, including commodity codes, can be found here.
The duty cost and DPD charges will be shown on your invoice.
Any items such as trade brochures, swatch cards or other items that are ‘free’ to you, will be considered part of the value of your order for customs purposes and therefore added to the total value of that order for customs purposes. You can find a list of these items on the Price Lists with the charges shown in column H.
Product suitability
- Colour representation is only as accurate as printing and online reproduction processes allow.
- Certain brands use pigment dying techniques and slight shade variations are inherent in the process. Images of pigment-dyed goods are therefore only as accurate as this allows.
- Sizes quoted are ‘to fit’ in inches, unless otherwise stated. They’re not indicative of the actual size of the garment as some styles are designed to be worn loose/baggy and others fitted.
- Unless otherwise stated, sizes shown are UK sizes. These are approximate and for guidance only. Please refer to individual product size guides on our website, where available, for clarification.
- Every care is taken to ensure that product details are accurate at the time of publishing.
- Please ensure garments are suitable before processing. No credit will be given for printed or processed garments, or for decoration costs or time.

Please note that reserved stock online will be cancelled after 14 days if not confirmed or shipped.
