As the items we sell ship from outside the EU, VAT may be payable when the package arrives in the UK.
Orders under £18 are exempt, and many packages reach their destination without any VAT being requested. As we are unable to predict whether a shipment will be assessed, you should understand that any taxes levied on import are your responsibility. The current VAT rate in the UK is 17.5%. Please be aware that VAT may be levied on purchases from almost all non-EU websites, whether or not the site makes that fact known to you. We ask that you factor the possibility of having to pay VAT into your purchase decision. In most cases, even with the addition of VAT, the products we sell will still be significantly cheaper than a local purchase. For further information see this UK Customs fact sheet.
