So, if I buy something from Germany that costs £154 (rims and nipples) how much are the VAT and Import charges?
Is it based on the whole amount, not above the £135? It's only 7.50 euros delivery so I might just split it into 2 different transactions so it below £135....
My advise is to split the delivery - your looking at an additional 25% ish otherwise
Yeah thought so, cheers.
Does that £154 include German VAT? You need to deduct that (19% in Germany)
Yeah, that's minus German vat. 🙁
Don't forget the mental amount the courier will also charge you to collect that small amount of VAT from you...
evening. i have fedex hounding me for VAT and duties having paid them on my behalf, despite me having paid Uk VAT to the Polish vendor total cost inc. Uk Vat £159.
I didnt authorise FedEx to pay and i dont feel inclined to pay another £55 - will they pursue it or re they trying it on? if i return the item what happens to the VAT payment then?
Write to them and tell them. You have no contract with them to do this.

The Incoterms of this delivery should have been delivered duty paid (DDP). Email a copy of the receipt to FedEx and suggest that they bill the sender.
