One EAS workflow for EAS IOSS Delivery and higher-value DDP orders.
Taxes, duties and delivery charges are handled through EAS, so EU customers receive their orders without separate border payments. Merchants gain clear country pricing, automatic IOSS or DDP routing, zero-duty support when UK origin qualifies, and import VAT recovery on returned DDP orders.
EAS automatically applies the correct route for the order value. Eligible orders use EAS IOSS Delivery and higher-value orders use EAS DDP, while the merchant keeps one operational setup and one customer experience.

If the order is later returned, EAS recovers 90% of the paid import VAT. This protects margin after delivery as well.
