Will I get stung for import duty if I buy a set if forks from bike-components.de?
There based in Germany and the value is around £600 depending on which ones I go for.
I've had tires from bike-discount.de before and didn't have to pay the duty but they only came to £50
Cheers
No duty within the EU.
Nope
Anyone know what the import duty is from USA?...I've googled it and think its 4% of the value?!!

+20% vat and a customs clearance charge.
When you bought from bike-discount.de, you did pay the VAT @ 19%, when buying with in the EU, VAT is paid in the source country, and there are no import duty charges in the receiving country.
(to proberts) actual cost, plus 4% duty plus any handling charge (for paying that 4% on your behalf), plus 20% VAT on all of it
So my totally unnecessary pedals are going to cost....£120+ £5(ish)+£25 = £150(again, ish)!!!....live and learn I suppose, they better be a bit special!!
Cheers guys
£120+ £5(ish)[b]+(10to20 handling)[/b] +£25 = £1[b][u]65[/u][/b](again, ish)!!!
