Key Changes Post-Brexit
Since the UK left the EU on January 1, 2021, all shipments from the UK to the EU require customs clearance under the UK-EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA). This affects all orders, regardless of value.
New EU VAT Rules (Effective 1 July 2021)
Major changes to EU VAT regulations now apply to all goods imported from the UK:
- All goods are subject to VAT, regardless of value (the previous âŹ22 exemption no longer applies).
- For orders under âŹ150, VAT is collected at checkout via the Import One Stop Shop (IOSS), ensuring a smoother customs process.
Orders Under âŹ150 â VAT Collected at Checkout
If your order is valued at âŹ150 or less, here's what happens:
- VAT is paid upfront at checkout â no additional VAT charges upon arrival.
- Faster customs clearance, as VAT is already accounted for.
- No additional import duties are required for goods under âŹ150.
đ How It Works:
Order â VAT Collected at Checkout â Faster Customs Processing â Delivery
âïž MySupplementShop Ltd is IOSS-registered, ensuring smooth VAT processing for eligible orders.
Orders Over âŹ150 â Duties & VAT Payable on Delivery
For orders exceeding âŹ150, different rules apply:
- VAT is not collected at checkout and must be paid upon import.
- Customs duties may apply, depending on the type of goods and their country of origin.
- Any import VAT, duties, or handling fees are the responsibility of the buyer and must be paid before delivery.
Summary of Charges â Who Pays What?
Order Value | VAT Paid at Checkout? | Import Duties? | Additional Fees? |
---|---|---|---|
Under âŹ150 | âïž Yes (via IOSS) | â No | â No |
Over âŹ150 | â No (Paid at Import) | âïž Yes (if applicable) | âïž Yes (handling fees, if applicable) |
Customs Duties & Additional Charges
While VAT is either prepaid (under âŹ150) or due at import (over âŹ150), additional charges may apply:
- Customs duties depend on the product type and its country of origin.
- Handling or clearance fees may be charged by courier services before delivery.
đ Important: If your order is over âŹ150, you will be responsible for all customs duties, VAT, and any courier handling fees.
