What does custom preforms cost in Croatia?

Price depends on the size, grade, quantity and packing of the custom preforms you need, so we quote per enquiry in USD, which your bank converts to Euro. Mixed-product containers usually lower the landed cost per item.

What import rules apply to custom preforms in Croatia?

Import VAT plus EU or national customs duty. Products within EU directives need CE marking; chemicals must comply with EU REACH. Confirm the HS code and duty with your customs broker; we provide the invoice, packing list, certificate of origin and test certificates.

Is there a trade agreement between India and Croatia?

There is no India-specific trade agreement with Croatia, so standard (MFN) duty applies to custom preforms. We supply a non-preferential certificate of origin with every shipment.

Can I combine custom preforms with other products in one shipment to Croatia?

Yes. Custom Preforms can be consolidated with other pet preforms and products from our other divisions in one FCL or LCL container with one set of documents.

Why import PET preforms instead of bottles?

Preforms occupy a fraction of the volume of blown bottles, so one container of preforms produces many times more bottles, dramatically reducing freight cost per bottle.
