That can be annoying alright, but I doubt it will change in all cases regardless of what the trade agreements are. Many of the UK companies will have legally binding agreements in guaranteeing them as the sole agents for UK and Ireland. Unless there are exit clauses that can be exercised or the red tape involved means the UK company want to give up the Irish market, we could be in for even more pain.
From July 1st 2021,all parcels from outside the EU irrespective of value will attract VAT.what value package can you import before you have to pay above taxes etc? (also is it just value of item in package or total value uk shipping costs as well )
I would have thought that some sort of single market access right might apply?
It only applies if the item and the p&p cost over €22 , anything below is exemptFrom July 1st 2021,all parcels from outside the EU irrespective of value will attract VAT.
Your £10 item could end up costing €30 or more.

That is news to me, that's a pity as it is very convenient to order small on line. Google translate will come on handyI wasn't aware of this change, but @vandriver is correct. the €22 exemption is going away.
now that the deal is done ,what is happening with this now ?
Other exporters in the U.K. should export without vat. So you’ll have to pay vat when it arrives (probably plus post “admin fee” of €10). It may not be worth while for some U.K. firms to set themselves up for export so we may find more limited choice.
I'm going to wait a few weeks for the dust to settle and I'll see what goodies are out there.
€19 delivery charge for Ireland on a <2kg package smaller than shoe box.
Someone suggested the German Amazon site on AAM so I'm going to source through it. Unlike the French site, you can change the language on the German site to English. Some descriptions are still in German but we'll see how it works when I actually buy something.

That website states that the changes come into effect on the 1st July 2021.I wasn't aware of this change, but @vandriver is correct. the €22 exemption is going away.
I have a €10 book coming from the UK next week so I'll find out what happens then.
For whatever reason amazon.de is generally better than amazon.fr on selection, price, and delivery times.I bought a tablet cover from amazon.fr after Christmas.
