Import fees/taxes

[ebmocinnivjv]

Hi, I am looking at buying a art kit (diamond painting) from China cos I can't find it in the UK. It's only £7.99 does anyone know if I will get charged additional fees upon or before delivery. I never used to pay extra but am unsure since the brexit changes.

Many thanks 

Gemma.

Brexit was us leaving the European Union. Yes you will be charged Import VAT buying from China even when you buy from a Chinese UK Warehouse.

It has nothing to do with Brexit

You are importing items into the UK so the importer

Starting 1 January 2021, eBay is required to collect VAT on certain orders delivered to UK addresses:

• Orders up to £135 sent from outside the UK
• Orders where the item is located in the UK, but the seller is not a UK seller

You'll see the VAT included in your order total at checkout, and you can view and download a tax invoice from the Order details page in your Purchase history.

Hard to say but you may have to pay tax of 20%

If you go to HMRC then you can read up on importing
