Payment request after delivery

[dwdhss]

Why are FedEx asking for import taxes for a recent order from Japan?

[tommystrezures]

They will be asking for import duty to be paid. Generally with FedEx they may deliver but will expect you to pay the duty portion owing.

What was the value of your order, and how much are Fed Ex asking for?

FedEx pay your import fees/customs duties for you and then invoice you for them.

Why are FedEx asking for import taxes for a recent order from Japan?

Surely your question answers itself?

If you have placed an item from Japan, import duties and VAT are liable to be payable. The amount to be paid will depend upon the value of the item.

FedEx will simply be collecting the payment on behalf of HMRC.
