Import duty items off ebay.

[roundisland]

I can't seem to gins a Yes or no answer to this. Would I need to pay any kind of duty /tax on items purchased from Germany posted to UK?
Thanks

It depends, you do not give enough information for a definitive answer. Probably not though, if we assume they are for your own use, and not resale.

At a guess, no, as it's in the EU.
Might be different for items from USA.

Have you tried the Royal Mail website - just wondered if they might have any info.

Thanks for fast replies. It's for my own use and item being a tent.

Thank you

I've bought from the EU and didn't pay any import duty.

Germany to UK should be fine, tax paid in Germany.

No import duty or additional taxes are payable. You have paid the German equivalent of VAT already on the purchase.

No, I've used Rose and one of the other ones a few times. Can make quiet a saving on some things (tubus racks, ice tyres).
