UK import in practice
What changes landed cost to the United Kingdom
UK import rules turn on a £135 consignment value line. A low 1688 price is only the first number — here is what decides your real UK landed cost.
£135 is the key consignment threshold
For goods worth £135 or less (non-excise) bought from outside the UK, import VAT is normally collected at the point of sale and included in the price. Above £135, Customs Duty can apply and VAT is handled on import. Gifts up to £39 are treated differently.
VAT and Customs Duty are separate lines
Import VAT (standard 20%), Customs Duty (commodity-code dependent, only above £135 for non-excise goods), and carrier handling fees are charged separately. Check the UK Trade Tariff for your commodity code.
Clearing customs is not permission to sell
UKCA/CE marking, product safety, and category rules still apply. 1688 listing claims do not prove UK compliance for toys, electronics, or cosmetics.
Official sources
For sourcing planning only. VAT, Customs Duty, commodity classification, and carrier handling fees can change the final amount — confirm current treatment on GOV.UK or with your customs agent before paying a supplier.
