Zucchetta. Responsibility for the movement of alcoholic products follows strict rules that do not allow for these shortcuts.  <\/p><p>It is mandatory to pay excise duties, as well as to complete every customs document, for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.directfromitaly.it\/en\/shipping-wine-abroad-to-consumers\/\">every sale involving shipping to private individuals residing in other European Union member states<\/a>. Unfortunately, at present, <b>there is no centralized system <\/b>for the payment of excise duties, unlike the one that exists for intra-community VAT under the OSS (One-Stop-Shop) regime.  <\/p><p>Eng. Zucchetta was very direct: <b>split payment for excise duties is currently not possible<\/b>.<\/p><p>What does this mean in practice? The sender (the seller or the winery) is not allowed to bypass the payment of excise duties in the destination country as if it were a simple, automatic technical operation. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2fcfd40 elementor-widget-widescreen__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"2fcfd40\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;hosted&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-hosted-video elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<video class=\"elementor-video\" src=\"https:\/\/www.directfromitaly.it\/nuovosito\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Split-Payment-compresso.mp4\" controls=\"\" preload=\"metadata\" controlsList=\"nodownload\" poster=\"https:\/\/www.directfromitaly.it\/nuovosito\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Split-Payment-Zucchetta-Copertina-scaled.jpg\"><\/video>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a96cf49 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a96cf49\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">EU Directive 262\/2020: A Door Ajar for Split Payment\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a9449e5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a9449e5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is a regulation, EU Directive 262\/2020, which speaks of &#8220;simplifications&#8221; for distance deliveries.
