yorks5stringer Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 So I'm thinking of getting something from Reverb, cost £10 and £10 postage. As it is coming from the USA is it likely to cost me any more at these low levels of expenditure? Quote
ambient Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 Don't think so as it's below the level at which tax comes in, I think that £35. Quote
dannybuoy Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 Actually the limit is £15, and that total includes postage, so at £20 you are over the limit: https://www.gov.uk/goods-sent-from-abroad/tax-and-duty If you are unlucky you will have to pay 20% plus an £8 fee. I’d guess you have a 50% chance of getting away with it though! Quote
Kevin Dean Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 If you are self employed it cause a tax inspection ..that happened to me . Quote
yorks5stringer Posted October 22, 2017 Author Posted October 22, 2017 Same item is £30 inc. in UK, so may be safer to get it from here? Quote
