I just received this through my mailing account manager
Both Germany and Denmark now require duties to be paid upfront, and on postal shipments the only way to prepay is through your Verified Account. A package shipped without your Verified Account, but with your marketplace IOSS, arrives as an IOSS shipment with no duties prepaid and may be rejected upon import.
So, they seem to be saying that duties need to be paid by the sender. This is already the case with shipments to the US from Australia. We have to pay the tariff when lodging the package.

Subject: [MOPO] New EU Packing Regulation: No more shipping to other EU countries
The new EU Packing Regulation is now effect, which means that small businesses like mine cannot ship anything to any of the other 26 EU countries anymore unless they pay several hundred Euro a year to get their package material 'licensed'. This fee is due for every single EU country.
