Hi all
This might well have been covered before but if I were to order a kit or car parts from the United States then would the items incur import duty and VAT?
I checked a couple of websites but it seems that for certain items the duty is higher than others.
Also if you buy an item privately then how do you declare the items when they are imported to customs? Do you need a receipt from the seller to help verify the items value?
I'd be interested to hear from anyone who has imported a kit into the UK to understand the process and the costs involved.
Thanks
Trevor
