ZollEU

English translation: Customs import duty (EU)

21:36 Aug 15, 2018
German to English translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Law: Taxation & Customs / duty fees
German term or phrase: ZollEU
I saw that someone else asked about this abbreviation already, but from German to Polish. If there is a Polish equivalent, then surely there must be an English equivalent, especially since it's a European Union customs term, but I can't seem to find it. The context is a notification on duty fees: 19.071,14 ZollEU, 29.505,78 EUR Einfuhrumsatzsteuer).


Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Not sure why the other answer here equates EC to EU. There is a (historical) difference.
