I have bought something from Etsy. It is made and imported from Turkey. It is for personal use. The supplier has my name and address but is asking for my tax number or ID number. Is that normal?

Hi
Are they asking for EORI number?
You do not need an EORI number if you’re moving goods that are both not controlled goods and for personal use only.
