Where should I buy my Duty Free items?

I want to buy separate acrylic nail items form China, but want to know if I am going to pay duty and vat.?

  • Hi, I am going to be purchasing acrylic liquid, powder and nail art brushes from China through Ebay. I live in the UK so I want to know if I am going to have to pay import vat and customs duty. This is for my personal use and the total adds upto £3.75 (including P&P). Thank you for all your answers:)

  • Answer:

    Customs Duty mostly depends on quantity and the perceived value (as opposed to the price you actually paid). £3.75 including postage doesn't suggest something of very high value. If you were buying quantities enough for a business or to resell, that could be different. I think you have nothing to worry about.

Generally you don't need to pay anything else. But when the custom start to check strictly, you'll be unlucky. Then you can contact the local express to pass custom!
