Import Duty
 

Can anyone help me with a link to import duty rates, the HMRC site is mind boggling, i've managed to find before but no look today. It must be the most confusing site ever!!

I'm sure imports rate are 10% duty and 17.5% VAT of full delivered price.

Seem to remember different products had different duties. I.e toys had 0%

It is different dependent on what and where you buy from. i.e. China

I only think the difference on duty is if its below a certain price or if it is normally a non taxable item as say baby stuff etc

It really depends on what it is - it can differ quite a bit.

This seems an easy to follow link

Where you importing from Mamoon?

dont forget you pay a proprtion of the value of the freight costs as well.

and it has to be cleared and delivered as well.

Looking at importing from China, just getting all the facts together

How do you mean?

Are you in the business JackosMate? do you have an idea of delivery costs for 20ft container to manchester from Liverpool

I've been importing from China for over 10 years, and its still a minefield.

It all depends on what you are importing, if its top secret then PM me and i can put you in touch with a very good company that can sort all the logistics, customs, and tell you the current rate of duty.

We've dealt with them from the off.

i estimate around £300 quid
dont forget all the other bits and bobs make sure you get a quote,

i would be interested to know who you use chief

Pm me yours and i'll pm you mine:thumb:

Ring HMC&E, its the only way. Import duty rates are all described in The Tarif but its thre biggest series books youve ever seen (there are thousands of different rates)! Therell be a copy of them at your local main library, but calling is easier.
