Full Services and Pricing for France
Important Considerations
Our price includes all fees, such as French customs administrative fees, import duties and taxes (D/T), and brokerage fees whenever possible. However, in some cases, French customs may still require the recipient to pay the €50 "Brokerage Fee" separately.

Pricing Considerations
Gliding Eagle Full Service Fee is calculated based on the declared value of the wines, as it includes the Customs Duties & Taxes (D/T) and Customs Brokerage Fee to be pre-paid. The total rate is approximately 30% of the wine value.
Volume Limit per Shipment
There is a volume limit of 4.5 liters (6x 750ml bottles) per shipment into France. We make split weekly shipments to clear customs for higher volumes.
