The package will stuck at the customs authority and you will get an invitation from them.

no because of health system, right "system", trump ... and btw it's pretty nice here
Oh man. They have to refund so much. Thank you for this resourcesWhere are you taking the 7% "import fee" from? I've never paid anything like that.
Customs duty and VAT, that's it. And customs duty is 0% for chips.
Plus: The trade war 10% only apply to playing cards... not to chips.

Last page of annex 1 lists only 9504 40 00 in the 9504 category, whereas poker chips would fall under 9504 30 (90).

I have no idea what the rules for this are though. If I have some racks packed in my luggage, do I have to pay some kind of customs fee or VAT to bring them into the country?
if the package does not contain an invoice, I'll get a letter from customs, to which I can reply by e-mail.
Don't you still have to declare the value, even if it's a gift?
I've had countless imports through UPS/FedEx which they took care of and a good bunch of shipments where I did the customs formalities myself at the Munich customs office. Only paid duty+VAT there.
have always paid only VAT at the customs office. There is no duty on chips.
Whenever I ship chips to Germany, I just describe them as heavy clay bricks sliced thin into little circles, and worth about as little as it sounds like they're worth. Seems to work....
I ask all shippers to describe chips as "Play Gaming Tokens, no cash value" when shipping to me, for the exact same reason. Putting "Poker Chips" in the description seems to arouse the duty-happy curiosities of Swiss Customs
