Fishing tackle wholesale for Switzerland
Fishing tackle wholesale for Swiss tackle shops, outdoor retailers, online sellers and fishing lodges. Switzerland is outside the EU, so goods leave the EU with export documents and enter Switzerland with Swiss customs clearance and import VAT.
We invoice without EU VAT, prepare export papers in Poland and arrange delivery with duties and import VAT handled as agreed. Instructions are in the language of the region where the product is used.

Frequently asked questions
Do you charge Polish VAT to Swiss companies?
No. The sale is an export from the EU, so our invoice is without EU VAT. Swiss import VAT of 8.1 % is charged when the goods enter Switzerland.
Who clears the goods through Swiss customs?
Either your customs agent or ours, depending on the terms we agree. We prepare the export declaration and the documents for import.
Are there import duties on fishing tackle?
Switzerland abolished import duties on industrial goods from 1 January 2024. Import VAT and clearance costs still apply, and some goods may carry other fees.
Which languages do the instructions need?
The official language of the region where the product is likely to be used. For a national range we print German, French and Italian on one label.
Do EU packaging registrations apply in Switzerland?
No. The EU Packaging Regulation and EU EPR schemes do not apply. Swiss rules differ, and we check what applies to your goods.
Do you sell to Swiss consumers?
No. We supply businesses only.
