for customers in Austria books will become more expensive, here is a copy of an email from Amazon: Hello,
Austria has introduced a new parcel tax. From 1 October 2026, on orders delivered to an address in Austria, you will see it as a separate line at checkout at €2.40 (incl. VAT) before you place your order. It is charged once per order, regardless of how many items you order or how many parcels the order arrives in.
Kind regards
