So I guess letters excluded ?


Yes, and personal mail as well (eg if you have family there and send them a package, this requirement won't affect that, it's for merchandise and commercial shipments. Sellers require a VAT ID to even be able to register for / get a license - unfortunately I'm not yet clued in on how non EU sellers can get a VAT ID though). 


That is why I tick all my overseas shipments as "Gift" and put real name in the shipper's info. I decided "Merchandise" was no good years ago. So sue me. Man Happy
