Eine „Position“ richtet sich nach der zolltariflichen Einreihung des Produkts, nicht nach der Zahl der physischen Stücke. Beispiele der Kommission: 5 gleiche T-Shirts = 3 EUR (1 Position); ein T-Shirt und eine Uhr = 6 EUR (2 Positionen). Die Maßnahme gilt für Fernverkäufe in Sendungen mit einem Wert bis 150 EUR. Laut Kommission gilt eine Ausnahme für Waren, die unter Präferenzabkommen oder Zollunionsmaßnahmen fallen, wenn die Mehrwertsteuer nicht über IOSS erhoben und die Waren in H1 angemeldet wurden.
