Customs
Monaco is not an EU member, but has a customs union with France — French (and therefore EU) customs rules apply. Shipments to Monaco are cleared as shipments to France: de minimis €150 for duty, VAT 20% (French rate) by category. Monaco postcodes begin 98000 — shipments are effectively delivered by French carriers (La Poste) or DHL/FedEx. Address shipments with "Monaco" as the country, not as a French address.
