Highlights from this day
- slow.taper — you can carry a personal quantity between eu countries in practice. the rules on quantity and prescription vary and i would not rely on my reading of them 04:57
- madrid_mg — genuine question the honest position is that eu reimbursement is a moving target and nothing said in here stays true for a year 06:35
- VialBot — Channel stats, last 30 days: 79 messages from 49 members. 06:37
- madrid_mg — my last customs bill was about twenty two percent of declared value plus a fixed handling charge that hurt more than the tax did 09:52
cross border in theory
a german member reported paying around 300 euros a month privately in 2024. one person, one dose, one pharmacy, ymmv
nordics are brutal
a swedish member put their monthly cost at roughly double what a polish member was paying, as of last year
you can carry a personal quantity between eu countries in practice. the rules on quantity and prescription vary and i would not rely on my reading of them
in germany the split is privat versus kasse. a private prescription means you pay the pharmacy price yourself and when i checked last year that was a lot
nordic prices look brutal, is that real or is that just what gets reported
genuine question the honest position is that eu reimbursement is a moving target and nothing said in here stays true for a year

privat means you pay
poland was cheapest
prices moved since
is the customs handling fee worse than the vat itself
is there anywhere in the eu where this is actually cheap
nordic pricing genuinely was higher in every comparison i have seen here, and the incomes are higher too, which people forget
quick one no local insurance means the pharmacy price, full stop, in every country a member has reported from
my last customs bill was about twenty two percent of declared value plus a fixed handling charge that hurt more than the tax did
