Q: Do I pay VAT on parcels worth £135 or less? A: For consignments valued at or under GBP 135, UK VAT (standard rate placeholder: 20%) is collected at the point of sale. BUYCN does not currently register this collection, so VAT may be collected at the border — this is pending legal review. Q: What about parcels over £135? A: Consignments above GBP 135 go through normal import customs: import VAT plus customs duty (rate varies by HS code) may be charged to the recipient. Q: Who pays if customs charges me? A: The recipient is responsible for any import VAT, duty or carrier handling fees. BUYCN does not add hidden fees, but we cannot waive charges set by UK customs.
