- Shipping times
VAT, Duties and Fees
- VAT will be charged by the courier as the goods are imported and NOT at the checkout.
- The courier may also charge duties and customs fees if applicable (see chart below).
| VAT | Value added tax | This will always be charged at your country's rate. |
| Duties | Any tax imposed on importing the goods by your country |
There is usually no duties on items made in the UK or EU (look out for the ‘made in the EU’ and ‘made in the UK’ badges on products). Products made elsewhere are subject to duties determined by your country. |
| Custom fees | Any fees and handling charges applied by the couriers |
These fees are typically between €5-€10. However, can vary from country to country*. |
*As every country in the EU has their own rules we can’t confirm or be responsible for accurate fees for every destination.
Insiders tip - If ordering multiple items which on their own are below €150, but total over €150, it might be better to place two orders to save on any fees - this may be especially relevant if the products are not made in the EU or UK and therefore will incur duties.
