the language barrier with support is real. i write in short plain english and it works better than good english does

DE

unrelated but parcels entering the eu get assessed at the first point of entry rather than at your own border, which caught me out badly
translate your message and send both versions. that got me answers when english alone had not

i had one pharmacy in another eu country refuse a foreign prescription and one accept it, same month, same paperwork

any figure in this channel should be read as the month somebody typed it, not as the price today

a german member reported paying around 300 euros a month privately in 2024. one person, one dose, one pharmacy, not advice obviously

what happens if a parcel gets picked up entering the eu

how do you deal with a supplier whose support is in one language only

a swedish member put their monthly cost at roughly double what a polish member was paying, as of last year

nordic pricing genuinely was higher in every comparison i have seen here, and the incomes are higher too, which people forget, still working it out

has anyone crossed a border specifically to buy it
ema approval is a licence, not a payment decision. every member state decides reimbursement separately and they do not agree with each other

FI

my last customs bill was about twenty two percent of declared value plus a fixed handling charge that hurt more than the tax did

is vat charged on a parcel coming into the eu and how much are we talking

that was 2024 pricing

FI

coming back to this german pharmacies will order in what they do not stock. mine took three working days when i asked in 2024

handling fee is worse than vat
