CMSL - Import Duties/VAT

(1/8) > >>

philward:
I contacted CMSL a few days ago to ask if they would charge EU VAT in light of being charged it when goods arrive in UK - for everyones interest, see reply below

Dear Phil,
Sorry for the delay in responding.
We have set up our account that you pay the VAT to us and we will declare it in the UK.
So you pay the VAT to us and you don't have to pay this to the customs/UPS. Additional charges are 2% import duties, as our good aren't from the EU and a fixed 11,50 GBP for custom fee.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Kind regards,
Gert

Very interesting Phil. I ordered a set of exhausts early January which were posted promptly, probably quicker than normal from CMSL. They got as far as export point in country and the courier ended up returning to sender. There would appear as if there is some problem regarding export. I contacted cmsl and they said they would repost. Two weeks later I am still waiting for confirmation of dispatch. I’m not sure who is at fault courier or cmsl.

That will be an issue with the courier and customs paperwork.

The courier should make sure the correct customs paperwork is supplied on collection, and not accept them otherwise. Once goods get into the network, it should be straightforward. Trouble is...couriers often use partners in other countries for end delivery if they do not operate directly across the borders. These relationships have all had to be reworked....and not all has gone well as it;s being done in the middle of a pandemic, with high absence levels.

It should settle down eventually...... but legally.....the retailer remains responsible for your goods until delivery. They are the ones who need to sort out the courier issues

I just emailed Marcel (CB750Faces.com) to see how much a set of CB500K2 faces will be now landed in the UK inc import duty etc.

UK Pete:
Seems like stuff from from Germany, Italy  etc is all plus 20% now on Ebay,
