Tax on goods from America
Tax on goods from America
by Angela17 » Tue Feb 20, 2024 6:21 pm
My husband wishes to buy some cycling gear from a company in America. Has anyone had any experience of this and is able to advise on the rates of the customs charges please?
Many thanks.
Many thanks.

Last May I bought a mug for €9.00 and I had to pay the postman €6.00 so please be careful or it can be a shock to your system

Thank you, yes delivery is expensive but I was wondering if it's a set percentage for customs. I suspect they'll just pick a number, and a high one at that!

To be on the safe side calculate with 10% import tax on the total of the goods including the shipping costs. And then 21% on top of that total.

This is certainly a possibility as it's a bike seat that he wants. The seat costs $370. Aside from delivery do you think there would be other fees to pay if it did go to UK?
