Do you pay Swiss import VAT and customs charges when ordering from bonprix.ch?
Prices are in francs with Swiss VAT already included, and Swiss Post delivers without collecting anything at the door. Shipping is CHF 6.95 per order, charged once even when the order arrives in several parcels.
The conclusion rests on a Swiss legal entity, Swiss VAT-inclusive pricing and the absence of any customs wording, rather than on an explicit sentence saying import charges are covered. No buyer report of a customs bill from bonprix.ch surfaced in the searches.
The Swiss site is run by bonprix Handelsgesellschaft AG in Otelfingen, with the Swiss UID CHE-112.145.947 in the Impressum. The terms state that prices are quoted in CHF and include statutory VAT, and the footer repeats this on every page. Delivery is described as Swiss Post bringing the goods to your home, within Switzerland and Liechtenstein only. Shipping costs CHF 6.95 per order. No page mentions customs clearance, import VAT or a carrier advance fee for the buyer.
