At Elite Edge Shop, we believe in complete transparency when it comes to shipping and import procedures. Below you’ll find important information regarding customs and taxation for orders delivered to the United Kingdom.
Import Tax and Customs Rules
According to UK government regulations:
-
Goods imported with a value under £135 are not normally subject to customs duties.
-
However, all imported goods, regardless of value, may be subject to import VAT (Value Added Tax).
-
For goods above £135, customs duties may apply depending on the product type and its tariff classification.
-
Import VAT and customs duties are calculated based on the declared value of the goods, including shipping and packaging costs.
For more information, you can refer to the official UK government guidance:
